Solid recipes - excellent use of attachments June 2, 2008

The recipes in this book are just average. It has a large mix of recipes, so the choices are limited, so don't buy this book if you are looking to make only certain kinds of things (e.g. just pastries).
Cons: few photos, some hard to find ingredients, slanted towards attachments
Pros: mixer/attachment specific information, bread recipes, ravioli recipes
I have the ice cream maker (get Ben and Jerry's book instead), slicer/shredder, and pasta roller attachments. I really wanted to make ravioli - this book has EXCELLENT info on the roller and several different pasta recipes (orange pasta, spinach pasta and the basics...). The pasta recipes here have worked much, much better than ones I have tried on epicurius and cooks.com. However, for me, the sheer number of ravioli recipes was worth it - they're excellent. On the flip side, this part of the book would be useless to you (as is sausage for me) if you don't have the pasta roller or don't want to roll your own manually.
If you do not have any attachments whatsoever, I recommend Reader's digest Low-Calorie cook book, which really surprisingly has some incredibly savory recipes appropriate for every meal/course.

I'm three recipes into this book, and it's delivering. I tweaked the Banana Walnut Bread into Banana Hazelnut Muffins and they turned out great. Lots of helpful all-around cooking/baking tips as well as informative instructions that relate specifically to using a stand mixer, as well the quirks of the various attachments (and when/how to use them). I'm looking forward to receiving my bonus KitchenAid food grinder so I can start making my own homemmade sausage and burgers with some of the recipes in this book. A great book to pair with a KitchenAid stand mixer gift, as my mom did for my birthday!
 Boring - no photos. Decent recipes. April 2, 2008

Basic recipes which are ok. Not a single photo makes the book boring. Definately NOT a must have.
Breville Toaster March 28, 2008

Our old 4 slice toaster died, and being there are only two of us, we decided to downsize. Already had a Breville juicer that we are happy with and relied on that as a recommendation. New toaster is very attractive, easy to clean and use, and makes great toast!
good cookbook, bad service March 9, 2008
