The Cast Iron Skillet Cookbook: Recipes for the Best Pan in Your Kitchen

Customer Reviews:

Best cookbook purchase in a while!

By M. Gateley "kitchen equipment expert" - March 21, 2006

This is the best cookbook I have purchased in a long time. I own a couple of hundred cookbooks and I had originally purchased this for my son. Now I have my own copy and have tried 70% of the recipes. The meatloaf is great, so is the stirfry. Love the apple cake as well. Get it, you won't be sorry.

Like having a cooking expert standing next to me while I learn to cook

By bellydancegurl - January 10, 2008

I've always thought of cast iron cookware as too much trouble to bother with and way to heavy. I actually bought this book to help me come up with some ideas for my electric skillet! But - after reading her opening chapter on how to choose cast iron, how to season it, how to care for it I was hooked. I immediately went out to the local Ace hardware store and purchased my first cast iron skillet. That was a month ago. Thanks to the excellent writing, I no longer fear cast iron. I am confident about seasoning it (I never understood what that was for!), cleaning it, caring for it.

Now for the good news - these ladies can cook! And - they can pass along that knowledge through the written word. I keep trying the recipes in this book and am enjoying them. And - because I'm no longer afraid of cast iron cookware, I'm not afraid to expirament on my own. LOL - I tossed out my old teflon coated crap and ordered two more lodge cookware pieces - all because of this book... read more

Comfort Food with the Undisputed King of Comfort Cooking

By B. Marold "Bruce W. Marold" - January 14, 2005

`The Cast Iron Skillet Cookbook' by mother and daughter, Sharon Kramis and Julie Kramis Hearne, has roots deep in American culinary tradition based on both the subject and the fact that Kramis senior is a James Beard protégé from Beard's western cooking lessons. Based on the Beard / West Coast connection, the authors get a very nice blurb from senior Beard assistant Marion Cunningham.

This is very much of a `comfort food' rather than a `gourmet' oriented book, with many of the potential weaknesses to which this kind of book can fall prey. The best thing about this book is that in spite of some weaknesses in keeping on message, this is a really nice book to have if you like cooking with cast iron cookware.

The most obvious weakness in the book is that even though both the title and the subtitle, `Recipes for the Best Pan in Your Kitchen' suggest that the book is all about the classic ten (10) to twelve (12) inch skillet, the book actually contains... read more
