Book Reviews of The Gift of Southern Cooking: Recipes and Revelations from Two Great American Cooks

Book Review: A Beautiful Book, But...
Summary: 3 Stars

I am going to be honest with you, while The Gift of Southern Cooking is a beautiful cookbook, just be careful before picking it up. This one is certainly not for the health-conscious chef. I hate to even say that because I sound like an uptight party-pooper, but many of these recipes cook with lard or bacon fat--I was a little shocked. Needless to say, there isn't any nutritional information about these recipes either. That being said, this is a beautiful cookbook with many interesting and traditional recipes.
