The humble potato is a culinary powerhouse and inspires adventurous and tantalizing fare.
A "desert island" vegetable if ever there was one, the potato appeals to all of us, whether in the form of traditional comfort dishes or in the guise of the new and exotic. Versatile, nutritious, inexpensive and unfailingly delicious, no other vegetable, and few foods in general, can make those claims.
These are just some of the delicious possibilities that the humble potato offers in this wide and varied assortment of recipes:
Classic mash de luxe Garlic roasties with rosemary Real English chips Gnocchi-roni and cheese Saffron potato cakes All-American potato pancakes Sweet potato-crusted shrimp East Coast chowder Creole potato salad French potato galette Fennel, potato and white bean stew Potato lasagna Oyster pie with top mash Sweet potato gnocchi Mennonite country potato doughnuts Potato fudge.
Appetizers and snacks, soups and salads, side dishes, main courses, hearty vegetarian main dishes, baked goods and desserts make up this vast and colorful collection of recipes. The author also includes a complete history and origins of potatoes as well as a comprehensive chapter that covers hundreds of potato varieties.

Title: Awesome Spud Book!
Review: I checked this book from a library and discovered this needed to be added to my little library of cookbooks. The recipes look mouth-watering scrumptious, the photos gorgeous, and the history behind this humble spud fascinating! Certain members of my family do not particularly care for this vegetable, BUT they raved over the "smashed" version of the mashed potato dish. It's a most edifying book I've ever come across and I definitely would recommend it to anyone who wish to expand their cuisine!

Title: Not what I was looking for but does have a lot of recipes.
Review: I was looking for a cookbook that would provide me with a number of simple and inexpensive recipes using a variety of different potatoes. This book does have a large number of recipes but most are not simple potato recipes using a variety of cooking techniques, rather they are recipes for a variety of dishes that include potatoes such as soups, stews, and main dishes. Not a cost cutter either. I wanted to find a few more ways to cook them on their own and save some money. There are also very few pictures. I haven't decided if I will keep this or donate it. I will definitely have to keep looking for a book that has what I need.

Title: Delicious but...
Review: I've tried a lot of recipes from this book and they were all good. The tips are very helpfull and provided me some usefull tools when I cook by myself without recipes. However, the presentation of this cookbook could be better. The paper is not good quality and there is almost no pictures.

Title: Pages missing
Review: I bought this book from an Amazon's sub seller, so I don't have a "Review this product" option and probably I will not appear here as "Verified Buyer"--but I am.In any case, I want to warn other customers: This book would be wonderful, were it not for the fact that a bunch of pages are missing! My edition skips from page 384 to 417. So, I'll never know what the Sweet Potato Chews for Danny Boy (allegedly p.408) will taste like, I guess. LOLThis (see picture) is the only gap I caught: there might be more, but I am too busy to actually check. Too bad, really.

Review: I'm sure if I had dug further before buying I would have found that this is very "American"...so the many references to spuds (and other ingredients) we don't have in the UK make many of the ideas useless....300 recipes are quite easily achieved when Jacket Potato counts as one and a Jacket Potato with Cheese as another !..Then we are told that Roast Potatoes are best made WITHOUT parboiling (?)...that was the final straw for me I'm afraid.....
