(More customer reviews)If you've ever been to Lisa Lamme's shop in Quincy, MA, it's easy to see why she was awarded Boston Magazines Best of Boston gourmet wine shop for the products carried in her Gypsy Kitchen shop. Now, getting access to the receipes that really bring those gourmet specialty ingredients to life in lively, spicy dishes that can add interest to any menu is an exciting asset for any kitchen. Among my favorite recipes are the sugar monster meat rub, the garlic aioli sauce for calamari, & habanera-spiced chocolate topping. Another awesome feature is the selection of condiment recipes along with their uses.
One of my favorite things about this book is that although each dish is elegant & plays with a complex array of flavors, the actual preparation process for these dishes is surprisingly simple and straightforward. This is a book you can keep out on the counter for every night of the week; the results are black-tie but the time & energy investment is minimal. That's my idea of great cooking: deceptively spectacular results.
The artistry and the level of refined simplicity that define these dishes--the kind that only comes as the opposite of simplicity: the distilment of all that is not perfect away from the perfect final product--that's what this book is about. I can't wait for the book signing; I want my copy autographed in person.
