أمة الحديد الزهر: الطبخ الأمريكي العظيم

The chapter on sweet potato and pecan casserole alone was worth the price; I’ve never seen such a creative take on a classic. The recipes are straightforward enough for a weeknight but feel special enough for company.

I love that this book has 200 recipes from casseroles to desserts, so there's always something new to try in my skillet. The regional twists on classics made me feel like I was traveling through the South without leaving my kitchen.

Finally, a cookbook that treats my cast iron skillet like the workhorse it is. I've already bookmarked half a dozen of the stew recipes from the regional casseroles section, and the instructions are clear enough for a weekday dinner.
