Customer Review: Very Impressive
I am very impressed with this book. The wide variety of recipes and types of food that you can make with boiling is fascinating. I never expected to be able to cook so much with just a pot (or two) and a stove top. Very few of the recipes require anything exotic so most of the ingredients are on hand when you are ready to whip up something good. The directions are clear and easy to follow. The meals are fairly easy to make and come out tasting great!

If you are looking for a cookbook that has easy to make meals with a minimum of fuss, this is a good cookbook to consider. I’m not sorry it’s on my shelves.
Customer Review: Even my HUSBAND can cook with this !!
Tasty food that is easy to prepare. Minimum of prep time, easy to follow instructions. I am getting another copy of this to give to my friend who can barely boil water. Even my husband (who had a hard time making mac and cheese) can cook with this book. A great book for someone with a minimum of time and effort that still wants home cooked meals.
