Gyros with Roasted Garlic Tzatziki and Feta Fries (original) Sheet Pan Meatball Pitas with Garlic Fries, Tzatziki, and the Works (Every Day) vs. Molten Chocolate Cakes with Whipped Vanilla Mascarpone (original) I’m kind of surprised that more readers haven’t mentioned it in their reviews. These similar recipes are technically different but they’re the same concept and not unique. I have checked out other cookbooks, but I’ve found that Every Day has a lot of very similar recipes to the others. A decent amount of it is breaded or oven fried, which is also hard to re-heat and seems to be more for a special occasion than something you’d eat every day. I actually find this cookbook to be less healthy than the others. The pictures of her in the book have been very heavily edited, but it can't disguise how emaciated she is. On another note, I've noticed that she has an obsession with all things "creamy, buttery, cheesy, saucy" etc and uses these words so liberally throughout her recipes that it's off-putting, and uses those fatty ingredients to excess, while she herself suffers from a very obvious eating disorder and doesn't eat her own food. They contain salted butter, pink sea salt, salted pretzels, and then topped with more sea salt! The brown sugar tahini shortbread is a very obvious rip-off of Alison Roman's chocolate chunk shortbread (apparently snitching recipes has been a problem, which doesn't surprise me given her output of 4-5 recipes a week on her blog). Example: the salty chocolate pretzel rye cookies. This is especially terrible in baking recipes, as salted butter contains more moisture than unsalted, and baking with it will cause the recipes to fail or turn out not quite right. A massive problem I have with her recipes is her use of only salted butter in everything, and then adding extra salt. Or so many of the seafood recipes being drenched in cream sauces or super sugary glazes. Or the reuben sandwich that has soy sauce. One example is the Candied BLT with brown butter aioli, which makes my stomach hurt just thinking about it. This book has *some* very good, simple recipes that are somewhat healthy and others that can be made healthy after some substitutions or eliminations, so I don't see how this fits the book's title of being balanced and "feel-good", which implies healthy. She also lists expensive, risky to make or hard to find ingredients quite often: whole wheat pastry flour, pink himalayan sea salt, browned butter - in this book the main offender is raw honey, which is in nearly every recipe. The more ingredients called for, especially in something that should be a simple dish, it's a red flag. While I do like some recipes in here and will cook them, and others which are promising after I make some adjustments and eliminations, I've got some problems.įirstly, Gerard's cookbook recipes are better vetted than her blog ones, which tend to be massively over-seasoned and overly fattened. this book has tried and true recipes that will make you feel good about sharing them at your table.
