4.0 out of 5 stars
A surprising find, April 30 2006
By Mathew Fournier - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Slow Cooking: Not So Fast Food (Paperback)
I found two copies of this book at a local bookstore and kept one for myself and gave the other way for a gift. The book is full of soups, stews, and other comfort-type food. Also, there is some fancier stuff that has turned out pretty good when I tried.Some of the recipes do take a long time, both in preparation and in cooking, but once you get them going it gives some time free to do other things. In my case, as a student, I usually did a lot of work while the food was busy making my house smell nice.
This book fills a nice niche in my collection for stews and other type food, mostly things I like to cook on cold days after a day of work. The other review here doesn't do it justice.

Cooking at its finest, Jan 4 2007
By LovetoCook "Love to Cook" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Slow Cooking: Not So Fast Food (Hardcover)
This is cooking like it should be. This is for the cook who loves the taste given to food by wonderful spices and slow cooking. But NOT a slow cooker. This is food that you take all day to cook and then love the result.

Mmmm. One of my favorites!, Sep 12 2011
By Astrid_Dom - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Slow Cooking: Not So Fast Food (Paperback)
Imagine all those fantastic ingredients merged together into one tasteful, rich whole, imagine the soft meat and the warm spices...OK, you need to start in the morning... or the night before... but it's sooooo worth it!
And remember: you don't need to work for hours. Your dish just needs a little heat for some hours.
Actually this book also contains quite a number of recipes that only take 40 minutes to 1 hour.
I love the asparagus risotto, the moussaka, the lamb dishes (I counted 5 of them) , the cuttlefish, the goulash, the chili con carne...
This Australian book bundles some worldwide recipes. Being Flemish, I was pleasantly surprised to find also one famous Flemish one.
Listmania!
