 Portuguese Cookbook, Moosewood Cookbooks and the Mediterranean Cookbook. June 2, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I found this cookbook to be amazing, what I expected and so much more. Sometimes it is difficult to imagine if the cookbook is really that good. This one is more than I imagined. It has so many wonderful recipes that are easy to follow and come out looking and tasting just like wonderful. Thank you.
The same applies to the Moosewood and Mediterranean cookbooks I purchased. I am very pleased with Amazon, their prices, and the customers ability to "check it out" before the purchase.
Again, thank you.

I have not received this book. It was ordered over a month ago, DHL gave the package to the postal service. When I called the Post Office they said they had no record of this item. Now I wonder where is my book or where is the refund.

Best Portuguese Cookbook ever!!! January 7, 2008

This cookbook is the best book I have ever purchased. By far, this book has brought me back to my childhood memories of recipes that my aunts and grandparents used to make for us. The recipes are easy to follow and very well written. Thanks Ana!!!!
Great Book, replaces all of our missing recipes from childhood April 22, 2007

All of my favorite portuguese dishes are represented in this book. Most portuguese women back in the day did not have recipes written down for common and uncommon dishes. They were simply passed down from mother to daughter through the generations. That is easily disrupted by modern life, especially in the U.S. We now have recipes that mirror the food I was brought up with.
My personal favorites are:
Alcatara
Masa Sovada - the BEST bread in the world
Caldo Verde - great soup!
Bacalao - a wonderfully different journey in fish that non-portuguese people would love and have tasted nothing like it.
Great for new portuguese cookers December 13, 2006

I am portuguese through my mother but the past three generations of family have given up their language and traditions for an American life. This book has excellent traditional meals and a little bit of history as well. The recipes are easy for me to follow.
