Customer Reviews

Can't get any better than this!

This book is *the* book to get if you're a potato fan. It has great recipes with gorgeous pictures, just looking through the book will make you want to cook and eat it right there. Many great classic recipes, although sometimes they are not the original, authentic ones, but that doesn't stop me from raving about this book. There are also very informative chapters at the beginning of the book about the history, different kinds (you would never guess how many there are) and preparation methods of potatoes. I love this book, you will, too!

A Beautiful and Delicious Cookbook!

I am a potato lover and found this book to be informative and useful in the variety and preparation of potato cookery. The pictures are gorgeous and helpful. Also, the recipes are simple, easy and delicious. I'm quite happy with this book!!!

The Most Pleasing Potato

This is a generous and lovely book about the wonders of the potato. A goodly chunk of the text is devoted to different varieties of potatoes and potato preparation technique, so you can spend lots of time reading and looking at pictures. Don't forget the recipies, however. I've tried at least a dozen of them and havn't been dissapointed yet.
