I've recently stopped buying cookbooks. Let me re-phrase that, I'm being very selective about the books I buy and I have discovered the joy of the Kindle! Granted, with the Kindle you don't get the pretty pictures, but once I've checked it out and drooled over it at the bookstore, I can pretty much live without the photos. I'm not going to go into all the reasons I love my new toy, but it is making life easier!
I have a couple of Ms. Scicolone's books including both Soprano's cookbooks and I like the way she writes. Her recipes come out delicious, they are easy to follow and in the case of The Italian Slow Cooker simple to make. Be forewarned though, a number of the recipes in this book do call for browning meat ahead in a skillet or sauteing items before putting them in the slow cooker. The recipe I posted for the
Slow Cooker Chicken Stock is straight from her book. There is also a recipe for Roman Oxtail Stew and a wonderful Beef in Barolo. I haven't made them all, but the recipes I have tried have been delish! So for those of you who like your slow cooker, I highly recommend you check it out whether in paperback or on Kindle.
