What I liked; 1. I counted at least 11 catfish recipes. Can't get more Southern than that. 2. Includes the secret to good Gumbo. 3. A whole page devoted to making the perfect mint julep. 4. Six pages committed to the making of grits. What I disliked (really disliked): A number of recipes included pre-packaged mixes. Let me give you some examples: The recipe for Easy Three-Seed Pan Rolls calls for frozen bread rolls, egg whites, and seeds. The recipe for Chocolate Angel Food Cakes calls for angel food ca What I liked; 1. I counted at least 11 catfish recipes. Can't get more Southern than that. 2. Includes the secret to good Gumbo. 3.

Let me give you some examples: The recipe for Easy Three-Seed Pan Rolls calls for frozen bread rolls, egg whites, and seeds. The recipe for Chocolate Angel Food Cakes calls for angel food cake mix, cocoa, and sugar. I do not consider these to be recipes, anymore than adding Nestle Quick to milk and sticking it in the microwave is the recipe for Great Hot Cocoa.

Southern Living touts this cookbook as "...the most comprehensive guide to Southern cooking ever published..." After reading through the book and making some of its recipes, I can vouch that it is pretty, darned comprehensive! The primary emphasis of 1001 Ways to Cook Southern is recipes--not photographs, travelogue essays or process instructions, although those diversions are also present within its pages. No, 1001 Ways to Cook Southern is a 900 page treasure trove of recipes for uncomplicated, Southern Living touts this cookbook as "...the most comprehensive guide to Southern cooking ever published..." After reading through the book and making some of its recipes, I can vouch that it is pretty, darned comprehensive! The primary emphasis of 1001 Ways to Cook Southern is recipes--not photographs, travelogue essays or process instructions, although those diversions are also present within its pages. No, 1001 Ways to Cook Southern is a 900 page treasure trove of recipes for uncomplicated, good, Southern food. Further, 1001 Ways to Cook Southern isn't a cookbook filled with "nouveau" recipes that put currently popular, but perhaps transient, spins on old favorites. Nor is it a fancy pants cookbook, filled with recipes that require a long list of ingredients not found in most grocery stores. Home cooks can genuinely rely on this cookbook for both every day and special occasion cooking, without taking on the added burden of a research project or wild goose chase before ever stepping into the kitchen. And the recpies are really good! My tasting committee, consisting of my husband and brothers, gave 1001 Ways to Cook Southern a BIG thumbs up. There is a corollary between recipes found in 1001 Ways to Cook Southern and the recipes currently found on the web page Southern Living relies on to share its recipes. Cooks unfamiliar with Southern dishes and wanting to try a few things before committing to a cookbook have the opportunity to do so. However, those cooks ready for an encyclopedic standby should take a hard look at 1001 Ways to Cook Southern. I think it could easily become the kitchen workhorse, to which one's hand first reaches when cooking Southern, in many kitchens. It will in mine. Note: I won an advance copy in a contest sponsored by Southern Living.

Yes, I looked at every page and recipe and found a number to try. However, I feel Southern Living produces better books and cookbooks than this one. While the recipes were certainly fine, the book is a very large and thick volume hindering the "reading" of it. Many people read cookbooks and this one will not easily lend its self to that. Also there was a recipe for "Tabbs BBQ" which I was confused by. I have been to Tabbs in Greenville, MS and there was no clarification if this recipe is connect Yes, I looked at every page and recipe and found a number to try.

I have been to Tabbs in Greenville, MS and there was no clarification if this recipe is connected to the resturant, if it isn't it is an odd choice of name for the recipe. Overall I was disappointed in the book.

Oh My Lord! I think you could gain 5 lbs. just reading through these recipes and looking at the pictures! Also like the side note about pecans and pralines - Puh-KAHNS vs. PEE-cans and PRAH-leens vs. PRAY-leens. This would be a good "big cookbook" substitution for my Martha Stewart cookbook I rarely use.
