technicat reviewed Comfort food
it's what's advertised but nothing more
3 stars
I just skimmed this cookbook - it's a collection of comfort food recipes, so it delivers as advertised, and there are some useful preparation tips in the beginning like how to properly freeze dishes after cooling in the fridge first, but otherwise it doesn't really do anything for me because 1) there's nothing here for someone who's lactose intolerant and on a prediabetic diet and 2) no stories, no history, no personal anecdote, no education on cuisine, not even a "we used to have this at family get-togethers". It's very impersonal, a modern edition would probably be AI-generated.
