I love this book! It's neither a bible nor a very complete book on Spanish cuisine but it is a great deal and covers a lot of basics. I initially wanted to buy the Barrafina cookbook (and might still buy it in the future) but decided to go with this one when I saw the small price. It is small but it's not a problem since most of the recipes are interesting. I'd rather have a small cookbook full of recipes I actually want to try than a big cookbook that leaves me uninspired. I can't wait to try the croquetas, the gazpacho, the migas, the white beans with clams, the lentejas, the chorizo and tomato salad, the patatas a lo pobre, the roasted pepper salad, the leche frita, the crema catalana, and the churros and chocolate.
