The Phony Gourmet: Includes 75 Delicious Recipes for Shortcut Cooking
frogslady avatar reviewed on + 94 more book reviews


This is a short, fun book. I have read other books by these authors and I enjoy the humor. Although this book does include several recipes, many are incorporated into a short humorous story about how the recipe was created, and there is a philosophy involved, mostly that you can have good food without being a slave in the kitchen. Who should read this book? I can't answer this better than the authors on page 1: "The Phony Gourmet is anyone who loves to eat delicious food but doesn't have the time or inclination to spend a major part of his or her life in the kitchen."
