Chocolate Toffee Cookies reviewed by BethNHFrom: Bon Appetit Desserts: The Cookbook for All Things Sweet and Wonderful (reviewed 24th January 2016)What a waste of time and ingredients!

Naan reviewed by kaye16From: 30 Minute Indian: Cook Modern Indian Recipes in 30 Minutes or Less. (30 Minute Cooking) (reviewed 24th July 2016)I was curious about how you can turn out a 30-minute naan. The answer is that you can't. This recipe takes a minimum of an hour. And, while the result... | |
Kheer reviewed by kaye16From: 30 Minute Indian: Cook Modern Indian Recipes in 30 Minutes or Less. (30 Minute Cooking) (reviewed 24th July 2016)Reasonably good taste. Poor texture, poor instructions.

Pressure Cooker American Beef Stew reviewed by friederikeFrom: Serious Eats (reviewed 3rd July 2017)Too much sauce, too much salt, and very few vegetables.I have no idea what the function of the gelatin is; the sauce was runny as if it didn't contain... | |
Pressure Cooker Chicken Soup reviewed by friederikeFrom: Simply Recipes (reviewed 3rd August 2017)DO NOT DO THIS.

Kokos-Zauberkuchen reviewed by friederikeFrom: Springlane (reviewed 21st September 2017)Disgusting. I actually made this cake twice, because I had forgotten to add milk the first time around, which resulted in some kind of semi coconut omelette.... | |
Balsamico-Linsen mit Lachs reviewed by friederikeFrom: Einfach Hausgemacht (reviewed 12th October 2017)The idea is very nice, the execution - just awful! So many details are wrong with this recipe, nearly all of them a question of quantity and proportion.
First... | |

Ham-Sauerkraut Casserole reviewed by tignorFrom: Biggest Book of Casseroles (Better Homes & Gardens) (reviewed 26th December 2017)This was HIDEOUS and disgusting. Edible the first night, but barely. Couldn't stand to eat the leftovers. | |
Anadama Bread reviewed by KestrelFrom: Bread Toast Crumbs: Recipes for No-Knead Loaves & Meals to Savor Every Slice (reviewed 19th January 2018)Unlike many others, I disliked this recipe.

Rhubarb curd reviewed by KestrelFrom: The Kitchn (reviewed 20th March 2018)Didn't like this at all. It was very sweet, and couldn't taste rhubarb at all. Additionally the colour was unappetizing (there's a picture in the post... | |
Free-form Cheese, Bacon and Onion Pie reviewed by friederikeFrom: Pie (reviewed 22nd April 2018)This seems to be an English version of Kapsalon - lots of things that are delicious on their own because they're heavy on the fat are thrown together in... | |
Fish Curry Bengal-Style—Doi Macchi reviewed by kaye16From: Floyd's India (reviewed 3rd October 2018)This is my first venture into this book (my cookbook-of-the-month) and it was pretty much a failure. Something is seriously wrong with the recipe. It asks... | |
White Cucumber Sauce reviewed by SovayFrom: Modern Cookery for Private Families (reviewed 5th June 2019)Disappointing -looked nice but tasted very little of cucumber since most of the flavour is in the skin, which is not used in this recipe. Mine tasted... | |
Hodge Podge reviewed by SovayFrom: Mrs Beeton's Cookery Book (reviewed 10th June 2019)Beef and vegetable soup with beer - turned out disappointingly bland. The recipe had no seasoning other than salt and pepper - having tried it, I added... | |
Brown Rice Quinoa Pancakes reviewed by KestrelFrom: Huckleberry: Stories, Secrets, and Recipes From Our Kitchen (reviewed 29th August 2020)These were an epic fail for me. Completely fell apart and tasted terrible. Tried to save them but no luck and had to throw away. User error probably, but... | |
Microwave Couscous with Spinach reviewed by tignorFrom: Betty Crocker (reviewed 14th September 2020)Had to choke this down and force myself to eat it all - it made SO much (and I used Pearl couscous, so maybe that was the culprit). Not very flavorful,... | |
Carrot Cupcakes reviewed by jherbFrom: Everyday Food (reviewed 5th December 2008)The main problem that we had with this recipe is that the shredded carrot didn't cook very well at all. We made large shreds - perhaps smaller shreds would... | |
Checca Sauce reviewed by chefaileenFrom: Everyday Italian: 125 Simple and Delicious Recipes (reviewed 17th February 2009)Uncooked tomato sauce. My husband liked it, but I prefer cooked tomato sauce. I made a note to mince the garlic in the future before putting it in the... | |
Vodka Sauce reviewed by chefaileenFrom: Everyday Italian: 125 Simple and Delicious Recipes (reviewed 17th February 2009)I would definitely try this again only with way less vodka. The way it is written it calls for 1 cup of vodka. I did this and it was overwhelming and... | |
Potato purée with parsley reviewed by westerFrom: Roast Chicken and Other Stories (Ebury Paperback Cookery) (reviewed 24th September 2009)The taste of this stuff is pretty good, but it resembled a soup rather than a mash and the recipe does not really allow for control on that. Disappointing. | |
Grandma's potato, red pepper and zucchini gratin reviewed by westerFrom: The Best of Food & Wine: Vegetables, Salads & Grains (ILLUSTRATED) (reviewed 28th September 2009)Okay, I guess. Just slightly too many ingredients with no particular synergy. | |
Crécy soup reviewed by westerFrom: Jane Grigson's Vegetable Book (reviewed 22nd October 2009)A bit bland. Probably good baby food. | |
Bourbon Pecan Pie reviewed by janepriceestradaFrom: River Road Recipes II (reviewed 2nd November 2009)I screwed up something on the conversion and the pie never gelled. A little too bourbon-y for me. | |
Pork Chops reviewed by janepriceestradaFrom: How To Cook Everything: Simple Recipes for Great Food (reviewed 2nd November 2009)I made the Pork Chops with Mustard. It was very good but still a little dry. I think it needed a little bit more liquid. | |
Veal Stew / Gestowtes Kalbsfleisch reviewed by friederikeFrom: Culinaria Germany (reviewed 2nd November 2009)The veal was expensive, and the result did not match the cost. I suspect the fault rather lies with me than with them, though I couldn’t put my finger... | |
Butter Cookies / Buttergebäck reviewed by friederikeFrom: Ich helf dir kochen: das erfolgreiche Universalkochbuch mit großem Backteil (reviewed 17th November 2009)These taste fine, but they’re not very special. The dough tears easily, the finished cookies break easily – I wouldn’t do them again. | |
Carrot, Mango and Apple Slaw reviewed by aj12754From: Summer on a Plate: More than 120 delicious, no-fuss recipes for memorable meals from Loaves and Fishes (reviewed 22nd November 2009)I wanted to like this more than I did. Somehow the flavors never really came together in a harmonious way for me. As with almost every recipe in this... | |
Pumpkin, Prosciutto, Parmesan Lasagna reviewed by aj12754From: Cold-Weather Cooking (reviewed 22nd November 2009)Something of a disappointment as the pumpkin layer seemed somewhat under-seasoned. Easy to make but not a recipe I would make a second time. | |
Onion Soup Au Gratin reviewed by aj12754From: The New Basics Cookbook (reviewed 1st December 2009)I found this recipe for onion soup to be too sweet. The recipe calls for a quarter cup of sugar to be added to the carmelizing onions and this was way... | |
Beef and Vegetable Lasagna reviewed by aj12754From: The New Basics Cookbook (reviewed 1st December 2009)I was underwhelmed by this lasagna. Just average. | |
Red Bean Pesto reviewed by aj12754From: The New Basics Cookbook (reviewed 1st December 2009)Easy -- especially if using canned beans -- with good flavor but not really memorable enough that I have made twice. | |
Sesame Chicken and Asparagus Pasta reviewed by aj12754From: The New Basics Cookbook (reviewed 1st December 2009)In spite of a list of ingredients that promises lots of flavor, the dish is underwhelming. But it's the kind of dish you can play around with to try and... | |
Texas Italian Cream Cake reviewed by bookwomanFrom: Moosewood Restaurant Book of Desserts (Moosewood Collection) (reviewed 1st December 2009)Should be clear here - there isn't anything wrong with this recipe. It reliably makes this cake - which is neither Italian or especially creamy. It is... | |
Orecchiette with Brussels Sprouts and Bacon reviewed by aj12754From: Weir Cooking in the City: More than 125 Recipes and Inspiring Ideas for Relaxed Entertaining (reviewed 3rd December 2009)Tried this as a week-night main dish in fall/winter.

Mini black-and-white cookies reviewed by sgogoFrom: Gourmet (reviewed 8th December 2009)I really wanted to love this cookie. So much that it's the second Christmas that I've attempted it. Last year I found that the cookies ended up unevenly... | |
Insalata di peperoni gialli (salad of yellow peppers) reviewed by westerFrom: Italian Food (Penguin Cookery Library) (reviewed 11th December 2009)Mishmash of unrelated flavors. I won't be making this again. | |
Bouillabaisse reviewed by friederikeFrom: The Essential Seafood Cookbook (reviewed 19th December 2009)BF prepared this a couple of months ago; I mention this because he usually is something of a ‘free spirit’ when it comes to cooking, largely ignoring... | |
Baked Mac and Cheeze reviewed by LeekaFrom: Vegan Yum Yum: Decadent (But Doable) Animal-Free Recipes for Entertaining and Everyday (reviewed 20th December 2009)I wasn't so keen on this dish because it didn't taste anything like mac and cheese to me but my husband really liked it. The sauce was too thick and... | |
Chili Salmon reviewed by BeckyLFrom: Sam the Cooking Guy: Just a Bunch of Recipes (reviewed 21st December 2009)I'm not so great at cooking fish and, even though I followed directions to the T, this did not turn out as well as I'd hoped. | |
Fennel, Mushroom, and Parmesan Salad reviewed by BeckyLFrom: Make It Italian : The Taste and Technique of Italian Home Cooking (reviewed 21st December 2009)I was not particularly fond of this salad, I think it was the fennel that did it for me. It was a hit with others, however, and was very easy to make. | |
A Consistently Good Gravy reviewed by BeckyLFrom: Jamie's Food Revolution: Rediscover How to Cook Simple, Delicious, Affordable Meals (reviewed 21st December 2009)We eat a lot of gravy in the south. I think that had I not been in a hurry at the time, this could have come out better. However, it was bland for my taste... | |
Cherry Vanilla Oatmeal reviewed by BeckyLFrom: The Food You Crave: Luscious Recipes for a Healthy Life (reviewed 21st December 2009)I am terrible at healthy. I found this recipe to be incredibly bland and negated almost all of the nutritional info by adding walnuts (for texture) and... | |
Buttermilk Bread reviewed by cgrunerFrom: Artisan Bread in Five Minutes a Day: The Discovery That Revolutionizes Home Baking (reviewed 24th December 2009)This one is just OK. It only needs to be baked 30 minutes, not 45 - that was way too long. The final product is not nearly as good as the master boule... |
