The Kitchen Counter Cooking School: How a Few Simple Lessons Transformed Nine Culinary Novices into Fearless Home Cooks by Kathleen Flinn

4.0

The beginning worried me- as a working mom of 3 who doesn't enjoy cooking or feel confident in many cooking skills, I worried this book would feel shame-y. I don't have the desire, skills, knowledge, or mental bandwidth to make many things from scratch. I didn't get that feel from the book though, I got the impression that the author enjoyed helping these people. The book read like fiction but was nonfiction (a style I enjoy). I didn't pay close attention to many of the actual cooking tips, and read for entertainment rather than cooking improvement, which I think helped me enjoy it more.
