Starred review from December 1, 2017
Krissof (Canning for a New Generation) developed these recipes with consideration for what the vast majority of slow cooker owners are looking for: "main dishes that can cook completely unattended for at least as long as the typical workday, that are delicious and family-pleasing but also interesting and varied." Additionally, recipes for accompaniments were developed with timing in mind; main dishes requiring finishing work in the evening have sides that need little attention. Sections include vegetarian and vegan dishes (spicy masala chickpeas, creamy pot barley with butternut squash and thyme); chicken, turkey, and duck (Romanian-style chicken and noodles, herb butter-braised turkey breast); pork (pork adobo, cabbage and beer brats); beef (no-ketchup sloppy joes, ropa vieja); lamb and goat (Sichuan lamb shanks, curry goat and potatoes); and additional items such as stocks, ghee, and dulce de leche. The book also contains information about choosing a slow cooker, selecting ingredients, slow cooker safety, and ideas for rounding out a meal that requires little or no cooking or prep. VERDICT The author's thoughtful attention to the needs of her audience and the wide variety of appealing dishes make this essential for all public library collections.--Stephanie Klose, Library Journal
