Cooking with Faith : 125 Classic and Healthy Southern Recipes

Summary: A Great Cookbook With Heart !!
Review: I couldn't wait to order this book because I'm a big fan of Faith Ford's. I wasn't disappointed! This book has heart, warmth and wonderful recipes. My mother-in-law is also a good southern cook and many of these recipes struck a familiar chord with me. The food here is truly delicious and the ultimate "comfort food" that we all crave - plus, as Faith demonstrates, it doesn't have to be fattening or unhealthy. I also love the format of the book. Filled with Faith's family anecdotes, photos and stories, they are wonderful touches and add a personal warmth. Candice Bergen's "Forward" was also a nice surprise, and I agree that Faith should diversify into other books on home decor, entertaining, style, etc... Faith has always seemed so refreshing, not your "typical" celebrity. She obviously cherishes home, family, friends, and the things that really matter. If you love cookbooks, this one will be a great addition to your kitchen!

Summary: Cooking with Faith is Fabulous
Review: I love this book. And want to buy one for all my friends. I once lived in Louisiana & miss some of the foods like meat pies and pecan pie. Faith has mini meat pies to make, as well as to die for chocolate chip-pecan pie. I can't wait to try out every recipe. I can't cook, though, never have. Hopefully, this book will make me into a home cooking expert. Get one for all you know. It's southern & wonderful.

Summary: My Favorite Cookbook
Review: I was in New York City and had tickets to Good Morning America the day Faith was there promoting this cookbook. I got to meet her and eat some of the Applesauce cake which was delicious. I couldn't wait to get the cookbook. I have tried a new recipe everyday and so far, all are wonderful. I also love the format of the book and the personal notes. It is like when your best friend gives you a recipe and tells you the little tricks to make it extra good. I have been so inspired by this cookbook and being a southern girl myself, I understand and appreciate the anecdotes. You won't be disappointed.

Review: My favorite cookbook, too. I ordered the book the same morning Faith was on the Today show, as the spread of food looked soooooooo good, and Faith was so comfortable with her presentation. Since then, I have also bought a 12 inch iron skillet and 7Qt iron dutch oven just to use with her recipes! I have read the entire book forward and backward for the anecdotes and cooking tips, which I can adapt to all of my cooking. Three Hens Cornbread Dressing is a recipe I have looked for all my life - can't wait for Thanksgiving. A delicious book, and a lovely author.

Summary: Simple Recipes For Amazing Food!!!
Review: This is one of the best cookbooks I've ever used. I have very little cooking/baking experience, but every dish I've tested from this collection have turned out to be deliciously perfect. The recipes are simply written, making them extremely easy to understand and apply, and the end results are fantastic. The only disappointment is that Ms. Ford does not include a recipe for Red Velvet Cake -- a timeless classic in all southern kitchens.
