Book Reviews of Puerto Rican Cookery

Book Review: Puerto Rican Cookery
Summary: 5 Stars

This book is excellent! Specially if you need to find out the translations to English of ingredients used in the traditional puertorrican kitchen. If you live in the States, use the English version, if you live in Puerto Rico get the Spanish version, Cocina Criolla. I recommend both. Nothing else that have been published in the subject compares to this pair.

Book Review: All you'll ever need to cook perfect Puerto Rican dishes
Summary: 5 Stars

Carmen Aboy recopilates the best and most traditional recipes ever found in Puerto Rican kitchens. This book's been around for quite some time, with minor alterations in each yearly edition. Recipes are extremely simple and easy to follow, plus the ingredients are accesible in both, the latin and the US market. Besides, Carmen added a few tips for better cooking and for the table setting. This is a complete cookbook, with a great variety of dishes. I use it almost on a daily basis, and it has becomed a heirloom in my family. Your kitchen will improve to 5-star-restaurant levels!!!!!! Buen provecho!

Book Review: Awesome Book
Summary: 5 Stars

Since I do not live within reach of my mother and grandmother, I have greatly missed those great Puerto Rican dishes. With this book, I can recreate those dishes and eat like I was back in San Juan. The book is easy enough to follow, even for a cooking beginner like me.

Book Review: Exceptional Puerto Rican Cookbook
Summary: 5 Stars

I have seen several Puerto Rican cookbooks, and my hat comes off for you, Ms. Carmen. The book is so detailed and self-explanatory, I believe that nobody can go wrong when trying one of your recipes. My grandmother died 12 years ago and with her went all the knowledge of authentic Puerto Rican cookery. By purchasing your book, now I am able to cook the things that she used to cook for me. Thank you so much for such a fine book.

Book Review: Tastes just like my moms' home cookin (but don't tell her).
Summary: 4 Stars

To sum it up my husband no longer complains about my home cooked meals anymore. Its tough living up to the cooking standards of both a Puerto Rican mother and mother-in-law but now they both want to borrow my cook book. My apron off to Carmen Aboy Valldejul!
