Great Cookbook August 31, 2006 This book is great! Growing up in a West Indian hous hold in the US, I was familiar with the flavors of the food, but not with cooking the food. This book was instrumental in honing my carribean cooking skills and is an excellent reference book.
Good recipe book February 26, 2005 4 out of 5 found this review helpful
Being a Jamaican I was a bit sceptical about this book being written by foreigners (AKA non-Jamaicans), but you know this is a good overall recipe book. They did not try to tweak recipes or 'improve' upon them, but rather collected recipes from authentic Jamaican cooks. The pictures are very nice also. They have good recipes for patties, gizzadas, rice and peas and many more. I got this in high school knowing that I would one day have to move out of my parents house and cook on my own...now I'm married with 3 kids and still love this book...great for beginners or experienced cooks!
