A Winner ( vermontlee )
I admit I am an Ina Garten fan. With that said, the new Back to Basics cookbook is one of the, if not the best in her series. In my view, she delivers on the promise of the book: recipes that are very flavorful, visually appealing and ones I think would appeal to a wide audience using simple ingredients. Additionally, the editorial copy in this book is very informative and she provides lots of simple but practical tips and suggestions. You won't be disappointed.
