Book Reviews of On Rice: 60 Fast and Easy Toppings That Make the Meal
Book Review: Get this book and a rice cooker, and you're set
Summary: 5 Stars
"On Rice" contains an eclectic collection of recipes with all types of flavors from a variety of cultures. You won't be limited to Asian dishes, although there are a few well-chosen ones here--there are Spanish, Portuguese, French, Moroccan, and Caribbean-inspired flavors in here. The photographs are truly appealing, and the fact that most of the recipes can be prepared in under 30 minutes makes this an everyday cookbook for me. Even my husband (who, unlike me, is not one to browse through cookbooks for the fun of it) was moved to consult this cookbook on his own initiative due to the fact that the ingredient lists are not dauntingly long, in addition to the aforementioned pictures, ease of preparation, and variety of flavors.Try some of the longer recipes on the weekends, but with this book you can put together a simple but exciting meal after a hard day's work during the week, too. And if you get a rice cooker, it becomes even easier to make these dishes because you can focus on the toppings. I've had this book for only five months and already it's spattered across several pages from kitchen use.
