THIS IS THE BEST COOKBOOK OF FRENCH- CREOLE AND ACADIAN RECEIPES YOU WILL EVER FIND, NOT TO MENTION YOU CAN COOK ALL THE RECEIPES IN THE MICROWAVE. WE HAVE A MOTOR HOME AND WHEN WE GO TO LOUSIANA THE FIRST AND SECOND EDITION OF THIS COOKBOOK GOES WITH ME. WE LOAD UP WITH PRAWNS, SHRIMP,CRAWFISH AND LOBSTER AND I COOK WITH DELIGHT. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS COOKBOOK AS WELL AS THE SECOND COOK BOOK WHICH IS ALSO FOR SALE ... THE RECEIPES ARE EASY, QUICK, AND HAVE MINIMUM MUSS AND FUSS. I HAVE COOKED ALMOST EACH AND EVERY RECEIPE AND HAVE HAD ABSOLUTELY NO PROBLEMS AT ALL. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED 5 STAR DINING ALL THE WAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Easy, Innovative, and Beautiful! 5 out of 5 stars.
4 of 4 people found this review helpful.

The recipes in this book are all cooked in a cute microwave pot. I have found all of the food really simple to make, with few ingredients and cooking times of only a few minutes. You can treat the recipes like tapas dishes and make a varied meal by putting a few of them together. What I love most is that veggies retain their color and nutrition, and are much more flavorful than steaming or boiling on the stove. It's also amazing to find a book and device that can cook meat and fish deliciously in the microwave!!! Lastly, and so helpful is that almost all of the recipes have beautiful full page photos. As mentioned in the Oprah write up, the Cook-Zen pot can be bought online at www.korin.com. Like the other reviewer, I am giving the books and pots as Christmas gifts, especially to my niece for cooking in her college dorm.

Editorial Review:

The Cook-Zen pot is a microwave-cooking innovation that creates amazingly delicious, healthy meals in minutes. This companion cookbook presents more than 80 recipes for Japanese-style veggies, rice dishes, meat, chicken, fish, even desserts, all simplified for home cooks. The Cook-Zen delivers perfectly cooked sushi rice and crisp vegetables every time.

A bit foreign for US cooks 2 out of 5 stars.
30 of 33 people found this review helpful.

I was looking for a general guide to some easy, quick microwave recipes. What I got was a book that is a bit more European than I can use. The recipes are not geared toward an American palate. Some would see this as an advantage, but I didn't find it "the only" microwave book I'd ever need. It calls for obscure(to me anyway)ingredients, many I don't recognise. I think of myself as a somewhat adventurous cook but most of these recipes do not appeal to me at all. A waste of my money.

You don't need another microwave cooking book 5 out of 5 stars.

This is the A to Z of microwave cooking. Form starters & soups to Sauces, pickles, desserts and ofcourse main dishes. The recipes are well explained and easy to read. It also has a good collection of microwave tips. If I had known about that earlier, I would not have bought another book on microwave cooking tips :-( Pick this up..Its a steal !

Fancy recipes 3 out of 5 stars.

Well the book does teach you how to cook everything in the microwave but the reason I wanted to cook in the microwave is to make fast and very simple meals...I wanted easy recipes not recipes with lots of crazy ingredients. If you want to cook gourmet meals with fresh herbs in the microwave then this book is for you but if you want something simple then pick another book.

Marilyn Tausend Rocks! 5 out of 5 stars.
9 of 9 people found this review helpful.

This book is a wonderful followup to her collaborative work "Mexico The Beautiful". I was afraid that many of the wonderfully authentic recipes from her other books might be duplicated here, but that's not the case. As usual, she's managed to come up with very authentic recipes (I have lived in Mexico for many years now and have studied the cuisines) that I had been hoping to find, such as Quail in Rose Petal Sauce of "Like Water For Chocolate" fame, Cream of Chile Poblano, and Torta Azteca, among others. The instructions are easy to understand, the photography is brilliant, the ingredients are relatively easy to find and Ms. Tausend again did her research right because these recipes taste like the real thing! This is not another taco/enchilada/burrito cookbook, there are many truly fascinating and hard-to-find dishes in this book. I'm so glad I bought it! If you're looking for another great Mexican cooking aid, this is the one to get after Mexico the Beautiful!

And you thought only Chinese had so many different dishes! 5 out of 5 stars.

Beautiful, authentic, mouth-watering, incredible--and that just describes the pictures! An incredible sampling of classic Mexican cuisine from many different levels reflecting the essential character of the people and their wonderful culture. In fact, the true irony is that authentic Mexican food is as complex in its origens as are its people. The result nevertheless is nothing short of extraordinary. These magical recipes are relatively easy to duplicate with ingredients easily available if you look.
