A wonderful little rice book September 30, 2006

I like rice. A lot. I value it almost as highly as my eyes, and possibly a bit higher than my hands.
I got this a few hours ago, so I haven't cooked from it, but I have sat around reading it. I like it. One recipe caught my eye for its oddness. It calls for thyme stems, with the leaves and flowers discarded. I can't say I've ever seen a recipe do that. I've seen lots that want the flowers in the pot and the stems discarded, and plenty that want both leaves and stems.
The recipes are diverse. My first flip through it looked to me like it was heavy on rabbit, and snail. A subsequent investigation tells me that it is much more diverse. I skimmed over at least one vegetarian recipe (I think there are actually three of them), as well as diverse dishes calling for all manner of fish and crustacean, plus rabbit, pork, snail, mushroom, squid ink, and vegetable. It is a bit heavy on snails. But I'm sure you can leave them out of some of the dishes.
Overall I'm far more happy about this purchase than I thought I would be.
A very appealing addition February 3, 2007

Jeff koehler's recipes comprising LA PAELLA: DELICIOUSLY AUTHENTIC RICE DISHES FROM SPAIN'S MEDITERRANEAN COAST requires access to fresh seafood for success. That said, this is a culinary recipe collection that packs in paella rice/seafood dishes on nearly every page - and adds a few non-seafood dishes from rabbit to pork to boot - making for an excellent survey of the varied tastes of paella. Color photos of Spanish dishes and finished paellas liberally pepper a survey which lends to beginner use: dedicated gourmet club members and community libraries strong in ethnic cookbooks will find it a very appealing addition to their collections.
