A beautiful book, which focuses mainly on proteins, which definitely makes it much more appealing to me than many others. The measurements are easy to understand because they are given in tablespoons and cups, and there is a photo for each recipe, although on my computer everything is in sepia, so I'm not sure if that's a choice made by Edelweiss or the publisher. Anyway, with the exception of a few ingredients that I didn't know existed (in the world), this will be one of those books that I will buy (and hope to use) in print.
Bel libro, che si basa soprattutto sulle proteine il che me lo rende sicuramente molto piú simpatico di tanti altri. Le misure sono comprensibili perché si parla di cucchiai e tazze e per ogni ricetta c'é una foto, anche se sul mio computer é tutto in seppia, quindi non so bene se sia una scelta di Edelweiss o della casa editrice. Comunque, con l'esclusione di alcuni ingredienti di cui ignoravo l'esistenza (nel mondo), questo sará uno di quei libri di cui comprerò (e spero di utilizzare) il cartaceo.
I received from the Publisher a complimentary digital advanced review copy of the book in exchange for a honest review.
Who knew there was so much easy protein in meals we were already eating?! As someone whose family always tells me I'm too picky and don't eat enough protein, I am definitely in love with this cookbook now. I would eat almost anything in here (because I am picky, not because they're bad recipes). I can't wait to try out the new (to me) recipes and update some of my old ones.
