Pure & Simple: An Incircle Cookbook

Summary: One of my top favorite cookbooks; absolutely wonderful!
Review: Although I have almost 2,000 cookbooks, this remains one of my all-time favorites, to which I turn again and again. I received a copy from a friend whose recipe was included in it -- and have since give copies to my own favorite people. Everything I have tried has been outstanding. The recipes were contributed by members of Neiman-Marcus's InCircle group of customers from all over the country, and almost all of the contributors included brief descriptions of the dishes, how they acquired the recipes, etc. They were then tested before publication. And all proceeds go to charity. I can't think of anything else I'd want in a cookbook -- delicious recipes, well-tested, described by the contributors, and all proceeds go to charity. And it ia a beautiful, professionally-printed book, to boot. VERY highly recommended.

Summary: Every recipe is a winner and I totally recommend it!
Review: I received this book as a wedding gift 8 years ago from my little sister in my soroity. Unfortunately, it sat on my shelf for two years until I finally got around to trying one out. Well, the first recipe was easy (Lemon bars) and a hit. (which built my confidence as I wouldn't call myself The "Galloping Gournet") Anyway, every recipe I've made has been great and I wholeheartedly recommend this to anyone...."seasoned or not" in the kitchen. I especially like the chicken recipes...and the Christmas Stew has become a family tradition each Christmas Eve. I think of my sorority sister Leslie, every time I use the book and consequently thank her again each year in my Christmas card for giving me such a wonderful gift that has lasted all these years. I'm only disappointed that Neiman Marcus never came out with another one! Cheers!

Review: This has been my favorite cookbook for a long time! Every dish Ihave made from this book has been excellent and is easy to prepare. Party Steaks are the only way to cook fillets...it's a foolproof recipe and very impressive!! Party Ryes are a fav appetizer...everyone always asks for the recipe. I have so many cookbooks but this is always the one I go to. My sister has it too and we always compare notes.

Review: This is far and away the best cookbook I have ever had the pleasure of cooking from. I am serious when I say that every recipe is wonderful and easy to assemble. There are some that have even become family staples and are made frequently. Anyone who loves to cook should have this on their shelves.
