This edition of the “Cookbook Confidential” review series continues with Dorothy Grover Read, who delivers a terrific review from Chef Yotam Ottolenghi’s “Simple” cookbook.
She begins her review this way – a perfect summation for what Bernadette has done with this series:
My friend Bernadette from New Classic Recipe (https://newclassicrecipe.com) came up with the wonderful idea to have an on-line cookbook club with some of her blog buddies. What a fun, and great way to choose a recipe or two from the books, cook them, and review them. Then, you decide if the book is worth your shelf space! Please go to her site for other reviews of this book! ~ Dorothy Grover-Read, The New Vintage Kitchen https://vintagekitchen.org
Dorothy offers up a very entertaining and in-depth look at Chef Ottolenghi and her relationship with his cookbooks!
Read the entire review and see the terrific recipes she shares including the one I have to try right now: Soba Noodles with Lime, Cardamom, and Avocado!

Bernadette kicked this off this week with her insightful and tasty review of a “sweet potato mash with lime!”
This looks sublime, and you can read Bernadette’s review here:
In 2022, I did a yearlong review of recipe from 52 of my cookbooks…and I travelled all over the world through the recipes I covered:

Thanks John! I really loved this cookbook, and I loved cooking these dishes for the review.
Of course, what I loved the most was eating them, and I’m making the noodles again for sure!
Those are on my next up list to be sure!
