The American Table is the best cookbook I have read. Truly, this book is full of the best Blue Plate special recipes I have ever tried. From Chicken Pot Pie to Firestarter Chili and from All American Apple Pie to Depression Cake. With American food being the melting pot of tastes and textures, this cookbook has flavors from every corner of the country.
The author of this book, Larry Edwards is a classically trained chef and internationally reowned food writer. He put together this 312 page, hardcover book full of tasty, come running - to - the table, recipe book. It is absolutely amazing.
