Book Reviews of Three Guys from Miami Cook Cuban
Book Review: Great recipes, not so great banter
Summary: 4 Stars
It's odd. I object not at all to cookbooks that are infused with the author's personal stories and flair. But this one, I'd rather just have the recipes. The recipes are remarkably good, mostly quite simple to prepare, and well-written. I use them all the time.
I just pretend that the hokey over-the-top bonhomie of the authors isn't there. Mind you, this is only because I think in person, I wouldn't like them very much. But I like their food a lot, so I just focus on that.
Book Review: Three Guys from Miami Cook Cuban
Summary: 4 Stars
Being of cuban desent and growing up next to my grandmothers kitchen I can say that this book is an excellent guide to true cuban cusine. I especially liked some of the different version that were put into the book on different dishes. Well worth the money.Book Review: A must have for Cuban cooking
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a great book for Cuban cooking. It is also great for other (non-Mexican) South American recipes. Having lived in another South American country, I see many recipes that are familiar. I HIGHLY recommend this book to all who love to cook or eat Cuban food. You will not be disappointed!Book Review: Yummy food
Summary: 4 Stars
I bought this book along with the Cuban Entertainment book for my husband and like the other book he loved this one as well. Especially the desserts!Book Review: Ahhh, just like Abuela's cookin'
Summary: 5 Stars
The recipes in this book are very close to my grandmothers' recipes. Ultimately, my grandmother would win a cooking contest; but the nice thing about these recipes is that they don't put weird stuff in the food like celery and other veggies that Cuban's don't normally eat. Some "Cuban" cookbooks add strange things to the food and take away the heart of Cuban soul and love. I really hope that at some point they come out with a strict dessert book because I personally want the recipe for Leche Frita. Anyways, this is a stellar book and very authentic, NO FUSION JUNK!
I would recommend this book in a heartbeat
