Book Reviews of Cooking With Steam: Spectacular Full-Flavored Low-Fat Dishes from Your Electric Steamer

Book Review: This is the book to get!
Summary: 4 Stars

So- you're trying to get healthy, and you just bought an electric steamer. There are instructions included for a few things, but aside from the basics, you have no clue where to go with your new gadget. Is it destined to live in the "Rarely Used Appliance" cabinet, along with the waffle iron and the Slap Chop?

In a word: NO! Cooking With Steam is a class act. It's small and compact, and every page is packed with information. I do wish it had pictures (that's why it's a 4 star review). What it does have: time charts for different vegetables, meats, fish and poultry- and recipes so you can sally forth into the world of steaming with confidence.

Steaming is not just for veggies anymore! Yeah, there are a ton of vegetable recipes- and they sound delicious. But wait! How do Cornish Game Hens stuffed with Provencal Herbs sound? Barbecued Baby Back Ribs? Bittersweet Chocolate Pudding Cake?

As someone who bought a steamer on a whim, thinking it would be great for veggie sides and the occasional plain old boring chicken breast, my eyes have been opened to the possibilities of steam. Fantastic cookbook!
