Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: A great gift Comment: I bought this cookbook as a gift for my mother. Pomegranates grow wild here but all to frequently the question is what to do with them. When I found this book I felt that the question had just been answered. I was surprised at just how many recipes there were just for pomegranates and my mother was delighted. We haven't tried any yet since the picking season is not for a few months but we are looking forward to trying them out. If you have a friend who loves pomegranates or love them yourself then just reading this book is a real treat. If pomegranates grow where you live as they do here, by all means, buy a copy and you will never wonder what to do with them again. Customer Rating: Summary: much more than the taste of my childhood Comment: I've always loved the flavor of pomegranates so when I was introduced to this cook book I was excited to try some of the recipes. Pomegranates are tasty but Kleinberg makes magic. This book offers an incredible selection of recipes that are delicious and present beautifully. At the risk of sounding irreverent I confess that the pomegranate becomes irrelevent. It is the wonderful recipes that Kleinberg offers us that has made this one of the most used cookbooks in my kitchen. Customer Rating: Summary: Best (Pomegranate) Recipe Collection Ever Comment: I actually use this book year-round, even when pomegranates aren't available at the grocery store. The author does tell you how to keep and store them, but if my whole house were a freezer, I couldn't store enough to last all year. The author lives in the Middle East, where pomegranates are plentiful, and has been a food critic and columnist for a long time. Those two qualifications probably make the difference in this book. I find a lot of pomegranate recipes are just some dish some American who recently discovered pomegrantes found out they taste good in. Kleinberg, on the other hand, went hunting down traditional uses for pomegranates in the cultures where they're a staple of the winter diet. The recipes are totally flawless (in the sense that I haven't yet found a mistake that would ruin the recipe), and everything I've tried, I've loved. There is SO much more to do with pomegranates than just toss them over desserts and salads to make them look pretty. But I didn't know that until I got this book. She even uses pomegranate juice and syrup (which you can buy at the store if you don't want to make it fresh yourself)! Customer Rating: Summary: juicy! Comment: what a stunning and luscious book this is! for both the experienced entertainer as well as the novice, ann's book supplies delicious and elegant recipes that will impress any guest. and it makes such a beautiful gift and addition to anyone's coffee table.
