    Transforming
  

*by A***R on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on October 19, 2005*

I never thought I would consider a cook book to be transforming, but that has been my experience with The Slow Mediterranean Kitchen. It has changed my cooking habits more than any cookbook I own (some 40 - 50 at this point, and still growing).Cooking has been a long haul for me. I used to not like it at all, and considered anything that took longer than 10 minutes to prepare from start to finish as being way too involved! But by the time I have reached Wolfert's Mediterranean masterpiece, maybe I was ready to be picked. I absolutely savored Wolfert's long leisurely approach to preparing food. Now I'm somewhat disappointed if a dish doesn't take at least a whole day to prepare (cutting the amount of time one can enjoy making the dish.) Cooking a complicated recipe (not that these recipes are all that comlicated) now seems like an invigorating puzzle, the challenge being to get the pieces to go together just right.I've learned so much from this book. First, how to roast a perfect chicken! That in itself is worth kajillions. Second, the very best way to roast rack of lamb. Also, one recipe involved a two hour preparation of carmelized onions. I always wanted to know how to properly do that. I guess, in the final analysis, this book has contributed more than any other book in making me a passionate cook, or at least pointing me in that direction. Introducing me to a very interesting cuisine is frosting on the cake.

    Just not exciting
  

*by A***T on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on April 28, 2019*

I feel bad to say this but the book is not exciting. There are few pictures that are very randomly placed. The pictures don't entice me to cook them either. Copy right 2003 but has the old school cook book feel.Please let me know if you've purchased this book and can recommend any of the recipes.

    Over the first hurdle (recipe) and still hooked
  

*by F***S on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on November 18, 2009*

I have a bone to pick with Ms Wolfert.  Her books and her infectious enthusiasm for cooking have caused a severe strain on my budget.  I'm several hundred dollars into buying various kitchen gadgets just this month.  An army of claypots is converging on my house as I'm writing this.  These acquisitions are mainly due to her latest book (Mediterranean Clay Pot Cooking).  However, my comments below concern a recipe I picked from "The Slow Mediterranean Kitchen" book.Over the last couple of days I made "Fall-Apart Lamb Shanks with Almond Chocolate Picada."  I only cook as a hobby, so this dish was no trivial adventure for me.  But I stuck with it and took apart the whole three page recipe so that I could manage it without panicking.  It worked.  My wife and I had one of the best lamb dishes ever.  Making the sauce kicked my butt, but in the end each drop of the it was treasured.  I used good bread to soak up the sauce.  The meat was truly "fall-apart."  Nothing about this dish disappointed me.  Perhaps I shouldn't have been surprised at all.  How can a dish be bad when the recipe calls for a whole bottle of full-bodied red wine to start with.  :-)If there's any doubt in your mind how passionate Paula is about cooking, head to eGullet and look for her postings.  You'll open a door to a whole new world and before you know it, your credit card companies will be calling you regarding bizarre purchases from exotic sounding Internet shops.
