Quintessential NorthWest Cuisine

I bought this book a few days ago. It is already a very favorite cookbook (and I have quite a collection). It is one of those rare cookbooks where you want to try almost every recipe. Many of the recipes are native Northwest cuisine (yes, we do have our own cuisine in this neck of the woods) but it also includes recipes that span foods from the the Southwest to Europe. Well worth the money. Highly recommended.
