Garlic: More than 65 deliciously different ways to enjoy cooking with garlic

Robert Browning once wrote, "Less is more.”And, this book, “is there.”Wonderful chapter titles such as, “Mellow, Sunshine, Comfort,Fiery, Go Wild, and Celebratory,” sum up what each is about.Every chapter has a write up followed by the simplest, yettastiest, recipes possible. Measurements for both Europe andthe U.S. are included, as well as, substitutions for ingredients.Covered are forms of garlic, storage and preparation, healthbenefits, folklore, how to grow, those who do, and festivalsthat celebrate it.Attractively laid out, engaging, not overdone; has somethingfor everyone.

Such a pretty cookbook! Looks like one of the pretty cookbooks from Anthropologie but for half the price!! Awesome gift for any garlic lover.

Great book for garlic lovers

I love how garlic has so many ways it can be expressed — from mellow to fiery — and this cookbook seems to encompass them all. There is an intro to the many kinds of garlic, followed by chapters of recipes with lots of variety. There is a great recipe for a mild hummus, and a fantastic traditional recipe for 40-clove garlic roasted chicken, which includes tarragon and lemon to brighten the delicious chicken and roasted garlic flavors. I suspect that the recipe for roast garlic labneh dip is the secret garlic sauce recipe from my favorite mid-east restaurant I’ve been searching years for (Surprise! It’s healthy!). There are quick and easy recipes like the spaghetti con aglio, olio & peperoncino — about 10 minutes from start to ready-to-eat. The recipes are taken from all over the world, like Malayasian shrimp, Korean bulgogi, spicy Indian meatballs, French salmon with garlic “en papillote,” a fantastic Spanish garlic soup, and a good ole garlicy American mac & cheese.

Great book. Lots of great recipes. Can't wait to try some of them.

I bought this as a gift for my garlic-loving friend. She's not a big fan of cooking but I know for sure she's going to love some of these recipes. It's a lovely book - great size with a really nice selection of recipes. Great photos too. What I really like is the nice description of each dish that comes before the recipe, always a helpful feature in a cookbook and not enough people seem to bother with that these days! A worthy addition to any bookshelf and one that I'm starting to think I should keep for myself!

Lovely book. Lots of information, great recipes, interesting facts. Bought as a present and recipient loved it.

Much appreciated Christmas present. Recipes are presented in a very easy to read fashion with excellent photography. Well worth a look for any garlic devotees

Has some very good easy recipes.

Great book and tasty recipes, bought two as I thought my daughter would like it.

Très intéressant, on apprend plein de choses sur l'ail, les différentes sortes, les coutumes autour et les recettes varient du très simple aux préparations plus sophistiquées. Belles photos également, j'aurais aimé avoir un peu plus deconseils sur la plantations de ces petites bulbes, mais en somme, je ne regrette pas mon achat.

Very good recipes, nice for a change
