Dressings: Over 200 Recipes for the Perfect Salads, Marinades, Sauces, and Dips (The Art of Entertaining)

At last a book that is what it says it is ,unlike most of the self published ,unedited , no photographs nonsense .Brilliant book ,simple ,well set out , good photos, loads of recipes ,deserves a glowing review.

There is a very full range of dressing recipes in this book. More than you will ever need.

I know nothing about dressings or vinaigrette this book shows me how

Pros: attractively presented recipes with plenty of photos.Cons:- The cover states over 200 Recipes. There are in fact less than 140. Even adding variations, the total is still well under 200. The claim of over 200 recipes is misleading and a blatant misrepresentation.- The index is not very useful, being an alphabetical list of recipes. What is missing is an index by ingredient so for example if I want a recipe with anchovies, it would tell me which recipes have anchovies as an ingredient.I have resorted to making my own index! See photos.

I love this book - there are so many interesting recipes to try that my salad is never boring. I have had it for a few weeks now and have tried several recipes with great success. Some dressings turn out so well you just want to eat them with the spoon. I highly recommend it for anyone who wants to make their salads more interesting. The only criticism I have is that the book doesn't offer suggestions of what type of salad will go with which dressing.

At last a book with all the 'basic' dressings, PLUS lots of great easy ideas with plenty of variety to use the abundance of recipes. I am so pleased I bought this book at the start of the summer. It is going to be used a lot over the coming months.

Great pictures and recipes! Make your own Dressings and avoid additives! Love this book for salad ideas, marinades, sauces, dressings and more! Great value for the price!

Order this - you won't be disappointed. I've made a bunch of the dressings and they are all delicious. I have 'finessed' some of them (I prefer a higher ratio of vinegar to oil) but the base recipe is ALWAYS good. You definitely can't go wrong with this book. Gives lots of ideas and combinations. I'm really glad to add it to my cookbook collection.

This book is a gem. So many quick easy recipes for all types of occasions. A very worthy addition to my recipe books.

I gave this 5 stars because the dressings are absolutely delicious and well worth buying the book, but I so very much wish she would have included ingredients for the actual salad pictured with the dressing recipe. The book is gorgeous, color pictures for every recipe, but no salad ingredients so I have to try and figure out from the picture and guess. Book would be 10 star with the salad recipes, but as it was only written for the dressings I can't fault the author and still love the book.

Easy to follow recipes and nice pictures. I use this recipe book quite often. This is a great book to give to friends or family at any age.
