Potato Salad:
The title "Potato Salad" on the cover of this cook book intrigued me. I couldn't think of many variations of such an old fashioned dish. To me just omitting eggs or mustard , selecting salad dressing in preference to mayonnaise is about the extent of my repertoire . I bought the book because potato salad is just about my favorite food. The variety of potato salad recipes is very surprising. Being a lover of fish I was amazed at the many kinds of fish that blend deliciously with potatoes in a salad. Barbara has not only found tasty potato salad recipes from all over the world, she has made them simple to follow and noted substitutes where you may need them. This is a great cook book made simple and will certainly be on my gift list.

Potato Bliss!!!:
Having purchased this book hot off the press and cooking two of the recipes for Mother's Day, I have to say, this is a keepa! Brilliant idea to create a compilation of recipes focusing on one food. There's a spud recipe here for every kind of meal you could possibly imagine, from the very simple to the extraordinarily elegant. A must for every kitchen!

Not Your Mama's Potato Salad:
Well actually it probably has your mother's potato salad and a whole lot more. From the traditional to the revolutionary, all the bases are covered in this book. I particularly like Tarragon and Lamb Potato Salad and Jansson's Temptation. If the spud's your thing, you must have this book.

WONDERFUL NEW APPROACHES TO POTATO SALAD. RECIPES ARE CLEAR AND SIMPLE. PHOTOGRAPHS ARE BEAUTIFUL. LOVED THE HEARTWARMING AND AMUSING STORIES THAT ACCOMPANY THE RECIPES.
