jam: I purchased 2 books as gifts. I was told by one recipient that the recipes were simple and easy to follow with excellent results. The artwork by the author was an unexpected bonus. It is a beautiful book and I will purchase a third copy but keep it for myself

dogman18: Very lovely book and I have seen him over the years, so I decided to give it a try. The book is lovely, however the recipes, tell a different story. Yes, the recipes are quick, but most called for ingredients that I don't have at hand. And some recipes called for ingredients that my grocery store would not stock. Disappointed.

Amazon Customer: After hearing about Jacques Pepin's new cookbook, I initially borrowed it from my Public Library. After only going through the first quarter of the book I had put SO many sticky notes in it for recipes that looked amazing that I realized it would be wiser to just purchase the book for myself. Totally happy I did. I've only had it for less than two weeks and last night I tried a recipe for Marinated Lamb Chops. Deelicious! Buy this book! You won't regret it.

A. S. Hale: I am a long time follower of Jacques Pepin--a pre-internet fan. This book is a remake of an earlier book by Jacques, "The Short Cut Cook" from 1990. The new book is about a hundred pages longer, and does have some new recipes, and much better presentation and "feel". I am glad I bought it. If you are wondering what's inside, or if you should replace your old copy, here is what you might find useful to know:

The Good:
(1) The Physical Book is Better. Specifically, the paper is better quality--coated and perfectly cut, not a deckled long edge like the hardback I have of the previous title. The coated paper (what they use to print colored inks) should not yellow as quickly as the older version has.
(2) The format of the book is better. Specifically, each recipe begins on a new page, the ingredients have been placed on the outside edge of each page and identified in a different color--a deeper blue ink, not a hard-to-read-when-the-flour-is-flying pale color (THANK you Editors!). These things make using the book in the kitchen a little easier. The old title did identify the recipe in different typeface (italic), but often you had to flip back and forth between ingredients...
