RE: Calling All Cooks & Design Gurus

[Maggie Pierce Secara <maggiros -at- yahoo -dot- com>]

Yes! Which is why I don't need/want the ingredients
listed in "shopping order". I can create a ordered
shopping list if I need to, but every dish doesn't
start with a shopping trip.  

All I want from a recipe is the ingredients in the
order of use, and clear directions, preferably in
numbered steps. Clear, accurate, useful.  Theory
belongs elsewhere, unless the book is intended as a
tutorial.

 anyway: a good index can
 make or break a cookbook for me, no matter how
 pretty it is. I refuse to
 buy cookbooks that don't list ingredients in the
 index. If the index
 consists of categories that parrot the TOC, then
 sorry, back on the
 shelf it goes. I'm the kind of cook who looks for
 recipes to match
 what's in my refrigerator, not the other way around.
