Editorial Reviews
"In her third cookbook, Perelman returns with a gathering of the best versions of her key dishes-recipes that she has tested, trialed, and tweaked until they became what she wants her kids and readers to learn by heart and cook with delight...The book is a joy to read, with Perelman's confiding, cheering voice showcased in short prefaces and recipe notes. She writes as if she were dashing off a recipe on a napkin for her best friend, while at the same time telling them what to do to really make it work. It is pure pleasure. The book covers breakfasts (which Perelman says are good at any time of day), salads, soups, vegetables, meats, sweets, and even a few drinks. Vegetarians and gluten-free eaters will find plenty of options and can adapt many of the other recipes...Essential for all collections. The cookbook, like the recipes it shares, is a keeper." --Neal Wyatt, Library Journal (starred review)
