The Best Slow and Easy Recipes book contains recipes compiled from the Cooks Illustrated magazine. The book features more than 250 mouth watering and easy recipes, from Beef and Barley Soup to Coq Au Vin, Osso Bucco, Beef Chilli, Braised Chicken with Almonds and Pine Nuts and oven-baked creamy Polenta, something for everybody. The focus of the recipes are on slow cooking using a crockpot, but if a crockpot is not available, the recipes also work in the oven on low heat.
In addition to the recipes, the cookbook also offers background information about the ingredients used, Dutch/French ovens, the cooking process, why different cuts work better than others and lots more.
The emphasis of the cookbook is on slow cooking and the various cooking methods like roasting, braising and stewing. Slow cooking allows the flavours to be more concentrated and the end result will be tender meats and beautiful flavors. The book offers advice on simple, fuss-free but nevertheless delicious recipes.
If you would like to experiment with slow-cooking, this book is a superb introduction to the advantages of slow-cooking and slow-cooking methods.
