  • Excellent cookbook!

    My sister in law is from Peru and I love multi-cultural cuisine. I looked through hers and fell in love with it. I have not purchased a new cookbook in several years. Its got easy to follow recipes and wonderful photos and there are tons of good things in here to make and eat! LOVE this book! It's also so easy to find on the shelf because of the gorgeous colors! And it has TWO bookmarks.
