A trifle dissapointing May 26, 2000
8 out of 8 found this review helpful
Compared to Tolley and Mead's other excellent herb books, this one was a trifle dissapointing. Althought the photographs were stunningly beautiful and the text was good, the recipes themselves were pretentious and impractical for the home cook who is busy tending their herb garden! I do not have the time or the means to be a gourmet cook, althought I do enjoy using herbs in my quick everyday meals. I wish the book would have given more practical recipes, although I did enjoy reading it and looking at the lovely photopraphs.
 Inspiring book with lovely photos for healthy food. October 27, 1999

Cooking with herbs is one of my favorite books for inspiration when my meals become boring.It is the kind of cookbook that you sit and read from cover to cover and the recipes that I have tried work. More than that it gives me the courage to be adventurous.
 Great pictures but wasn't what I thought it would be July 2, 1999

Cooking with Herbs was great to look through but one important ingredient was left out. The great Northwest. It had Europe, Northeast, California and so on but no Northwest. For shame. I haven't read all of it as yet and I'm not sure I will, but it wasn't the type of cookbook that I was looking for. Too much text and not enough recipes. Am I wrong but are there herb recipes for ordinary food? I love shopping on line and Amazon is great but if I could have seen this book before buying I probably wouldn't have bought it. But there were great pictures.
