Tyler's Ultimate: Brilliant Simple Food to Make Any Time Review

Tyler's Ultimate: Brilliant Simple Food to Make Any Time
Average Reviews:

I saw Tyler Florence make this amazing Mac and Cheese on his namesake show and was excited to see that he had a cookbook filled with the recipes from his show. I have made several recipes from this cookbook and they have all come out wonderfully. The Ultimate Grilled Shrimp recipe was so easy and what's even better is that my husband thinks I'm this master cook. The shrimp stayed moist and succulent. I love broccoli and Tyler's roasted broccoli recipe is amazing. There are only 4 ingredients, but this simple vegetable comes out with very complex flavors. There's no sugar added, but roasting the broccoli over high heat brought out this amazing sweetness. I can't wait to try the other recipes. I usually don't write reviews, but thought foodies shouldn't miss this cookbook.

Tyler Florence Family Meal: Bringing People Together Never Tasted Better Review

This is a sturdy cookbook, but also one that tells much of Tyler Florence and his family. He gives an eloquent introduction: family is the people you spend a great deal of time with, care for and trust...a two-way street. Then he has pages throughout that tell a bit about his family and friends with pictures. He explains what a family meal is to a chef. This book is very similar in style to his book Dinner at My Place.
The pictures of the recipes are luscious. He tells a small amount about each recipe, such as how he discovered his recipe for creamed spinach, omelets are a test for young culinary cooks and how his friend went on a quest for the perfect chocolate chip cookie. It contains recipes for: brunch, simple dinners, salads and sides, easy desserts, potluck, southern, soups and starters, mains and sides.
These recipes are not the simplest, but not all that difficult. Many have a lot of steps in them. But there are some really good ones that have been hits in our household: Tolan's glazed turkey meatloaf (which we have even used beef instead of turkey for an ingredient), Chicken, avocado and bacon salad, Chili relleno rice, Porkie pie, and probably the best Beef Wellington recipe.
Cookbook collectors, fans of Tyler Florence and those who would like some different recipes would appreciate this book.

Stirring The Pot Review

Stirring The Pot
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
When I first noticed that Tyler was releasing two books the same month I thought it was a ploy to sell twice as many books. When I looked through them however, I realized that they were really very different in style. Dinner at My Place offers menus for meals, although any of the dishes can be prepared independently. The theme is more about creating whole meals for friends and family. Stirring the Pot is more about teaching different cooking techniques and what types of dishes are best produced using those techniques. There are lessons on stocking your kitchen, purchasing gadgets, sharpening knives, etc. But then the book's chapters are titled things like "Roasting," "Braising," "Frying," etc. Each chapter offers a selection of great recipes using that cooking method. I understand why Tyler released the books separately, but I also know why I purchased both of them. Because they are great!
