(More customer reviews)My hubby Dub was up at the book swap at the Trinidad and Tobago Yachting Association. He'd taken up a couple mystery paperbacks and was looking for some more of the same. However, when he came back to the boat he had this book. He opened it to the Shrimp Creole recipe on page 157 and said. "I'd like this tonight."
Well, I'd been to the outdoor market in Port of Spain just that morning and had half a pound of fresh shrimp on board and, as his luck would have it, I had all of the other ingredients, except the arrowroot powder, but a quick trip to the High Lo Supermarket in Glenco and I was good to go.
For those of you who don't know me, I live on a sailboat half the year (sometimes longer these days) and I fancy myself as somewhat of a pretty darned good cook. But I like following other people's recipes, too. In fact, the first time I cook something I stick pretty much to the plan. The second time I usually add my own changes, a pinch of this extra, maybe none of that, depends how the original recipe turned out.
Anyway, the forty minute shrimp creole in this book turned out great. I've also done the Tofu Burritos. They're okay, well I liked 'em fine, however Dub is really into meat, but he ate them and that's saying something. I haven't tried anything else in this book, haven't had it long enough, but I'm sure I'm going to. The recipes look like they can all be made the way the title of the book advertises and that's fast. If you need to whip something up quick, quick like, then this might be a good cookbook to stick in your arsenal.
