Love Le Bernardin and now I can have it at home

My husband and I got engaged at Le Bernardin and visit the restaurant every time we're in the City, but, we live in Florida so we don't get there often enough. I bought this book for my husband for Christmas and every once in a while I let him pick a recipe out of it. The recipes are labor intensive and some of them actually take me two days (I work full time so I prep stuff the night before) but the time spent is well worth it. Everything we have tried has been divine and the step by step recipes are easy to follow. If you are experienced in the kitchen this book will great for you, if you're just starting out be warned, some of these techniques are a bit advanced but it breaks it down for you so you can do it - just be patient. There is a scallop salad in this book that we make all the time because it is so good - we also always have the salad dressing in the fridge. You will not be disappointed in this and neither were we, it helps us pass the times between visits to New York without terrible Le Bernardin cravings.

My Father loves being able to make these now instead of running out to get them! Thanks Hamilton beach! My only regret is not getting the double one :(

I like to cook and I like and give my family home-cooked meals as often as possible.  Hard to do when you work and have kids with busy schedules. I need short cuts and I need to know that it will come out tasting and looking good.  I live Judith Finlayson's slow cooker books so I based on those I got this one.  Glad I did.  We have our favorites that I make sure I always have the basics for in my pantry and freezer.  So easy and yummy.  I've even started making my own substitutions to create my own versions.

Have had the original book in French for a very long time and happy that it came ouot in English. Very simple and not a long recipe to read but delicious. Especially the Aoli with the potatoe in it . Enjoy if you like French cooking

My French cookbooks usually sit on the shelf untouched because the recipes are too complicated or the ingredients are too difficult to find.  This book is totally different and makes French country cooking a pleasure.  You must try the daube.  The taste was amazing for such an easy recipe.

I originally wanted a more authentic tagine, but the one I chose had a warning to California residents that it contained cancer-causing materials, so I got scared off and went with the Emile Henry. Since a few people on this site received broken ones in the mail, I bought mine in person at Sur La Table. I love this tagine, and I've made so many wonderful meals in it, both on stove-top and in the oven. I've made delicious Moroccan tagines,  Spanish zarzuelas, French onion soup, baked beans, chicken cacciatore, etc. It's very versatile and more durable than some of my other clay pots. If I want to cook on the stove top, I trust this one not to break. Of course you have to let it heat slowly and don't put any cold liquids into the hot pan. It's also a great baking dish without the top when you don't want any steam.

I originally thought 2.6 quarts might be too small, but it's much larger than I thought it would be. It easily makes a meal for 6 people. It keeps food hot for a long time, and it's easy to clean. Plus it looks great!

I was given a girolle and Tete de Moine as a gift several months ago.  This gift came directly from Switzerland so I was concerned about being able to find cheese to equal to the gift I received.  I didn't need to worry because this was exactly what I expected. The presentation is outstanding and the flavor is wonderful.!

Walk into the kitchen of anyone's home in Louisiana and you will see a copy of this cookbook. When I moved from Louisiana to Los Angeles I took my mother's well-worn copy (she bought herself a new copy). That was 15 years  ago and I finally got tired of taping the pages back in so I bought a new  copy of my own just recently. The recipes are easy to follow and everything  tastes good (my personal favorite -- chile con carne). Whenever I have  company over for dinner I always flip through this book and never fail to  find something interesting to cook. I still give this book as gifts to  friends. One side note: the book was published in 1959 and the recipes are  not known for low fat-low sodium-low cholesteral content but with a little  imagination you will be able to find suitable substitutes for certain  ingredients (butter, bacon drippings, egg yolks, and chicken fat are just a  few of the heart-attack causing ingredients I've discovered in these  recipes).

Can't wait to use this.  Now that I am back at home, I plan to give this a whirl

I like the easy ingredients and that I can put together a dish after I get home from work!  It lets me try new things on weeknights.

My local supermarket used to sell this form of Knorr Bouillon but discontinued carrying it.  I am so glad I can buy it on-line.  I think it's the best!

This is great!  Coffee and Chicory for a Kurig!  Warm your milk and hot fresh cafe au lait!  Now only iF I didn't have to fry my beingets. I'd be at home in New Orleans.

Really happy to find out that I can now make hotpot at home without having to go to Little Sheep Mongolia myself.

I ordered this tagine from Amazon, and it arrived broken because Amazon doesn't know how to pack delicate things.  I returned it, and the replacement also arrived broken.  I returned it, got a refund, and ended up buying it from a local gourmet shop.  Lesson learned--buy local!!!  The only reason I didn't buy it locally in the first place is that I  live in a medium-sized market and assumed I wouldn't be able to find it locally.  If you want to find it locally, go to the Emile Henri web page--they have a listing of merchants that sell their cookware.

As for the Emile Henri tagine--I love it!  It's very sturdy, which makes it all the more amazing that Amazon couldn't figure out how to pack it so it wouldn't break in shipment.  It works very well, and is great for both browning and braising.  I've made a couple of awesome Moroccan stews, and have plans for many more.

So pleased taste of home,makes my stew and dumplings taste like home (UK) so easy to make light and fluffy took a little while to come from UK but well worth waiting for.
