Subtitled: Quick and delicious recipes for indoor and outdoor grilling
I love interesting cookbooks that succeed in bringing food to a new level. Even if I never cook all of the recipes, I enjoy reading them.
Grill! by Pippa Cuthbert and Lindsay Cameron Wilson gives grilling a new twist. It provides tips for successful food preparation, a glossary and a list of the equipment that contributes to easy grilling. If you don't know how to butterfly chicken, you'll learn through reading the easy instructions.
The books contents are broken into starters, main meals, bread, skewered, salads and vegetables, desserts and accompaniments.
Some of my favorite recipes are: Butterflied Thai coconut chicken breasts, blackened halibut, the classic burger, Italian-style sandwiches, smoky Portobello mushroom burger, Korean beef with cherry tomatoes, grilled corn on the cob with lime butter, and the ever-popular grilled s'mores sandwiches.
Grill! is not a 'toss it on the grill and cook it' cookbook. It is a book that takes ingredients and turns them into yummy dishes. It requires time but it is worth the effort.
Armchair Interviews says: This is a cookbook for your library. We predict it will be used a lot.
