Customer Review: ANOTHER TOP NOTCH COOK BOOK BY “THE FRUGS”
This is another excellent cook book by Jeff Smith! It’s full of great recipes and stories by a very talented cook and writer. This one focuses on cooking with wine. I have used many of these recipes and found them to be very good. Being a home grown cook myself and having had many of my grandmother’s classic recipes handed down to me, I found this book to be very helpful in expanding my culinary taste buds.
Jeff Smith entertained us for years on his PBS program ‘The Frugal Gourmet’. Not only did he teach us many savory dishes, he also educated us. Not satisfied with just cooking delicious meals for his viewers, he would give detailed history lessons about the origins of the dish and made it all a lot of fun!
This may be Mr. Smiths best cook book and it is a worthy edition to everyone’s cook book library. I own and have read many, if not all of his cook books, not only for the man’s knowledge of cooking, but his incredible wit! This guy was funny and I would have loved to have hung out and throw a few beers down with him.
Unfortunately, this man had some very seriously bad press released about his personal life and well….. I am not one to spread rumors…..he seemed like a great guy and sadly he died before he was able to clear his name.
R.I.P. Frugs!
