The Unofficial Harry Potter Cookbook: From Cauldron Cakes to Knickerbocker Glory--More Than 150 Magical Recipes for Wizards and Non-Wizards Alike (Unofficial Cookbook)

Product Information

Such a fun book! I always forget I have this and haven't used it nearly enough! Must remedy that soon. We've only tried one recipe out of it (made it twice) and it was really good! La autora ha hecho un gran trabajo con este recetario. Se nota que se ha documentado muy bien, y queda demostrado que tiene muchos conocimientos sobre este mundo. A LOT of space is used for the quotes mentioning the food and then telling more about that scene in great detail. You know, I've read the Harry Potter books. More than once. I've watched the movies. I'm quite familiar with the stories...as I assume are most people reading this book. We don't need to be told that Harry is best friends with Ron. These parts could have been shorter.

No photos. No photos at all. I know that makes cookbooks cost more (and not all cookbooks have them) but for not particularly gifted cooks like myself, well. We kind of need the photos.All in all, I'd recommend this for really, really new cooks and maybe kids. But as an adult, I don't really need recipes for a lot of these things. I'll hang on to it purely for the Harry Potter theme, but probably won't use it much. Discover the Wizarding World of Harry Potter and test your power and knowledge with this fantastic Puzzle and Quiz Book.

Okay, so being one of the few people who actually has cooked out of this recipe book, I wanted to say a few things about it. Get ready for a whole lot of laughter with this unofficial Harry Potter Joke Book – sure to provide endless fun! Ni que decir tiene que amo el mundo de Harry Potter y todo lo relacionado con él. De pequeña seguí las publicaciones de los libros y vi todas las películas en su estreno, así que cuando descubrí este libro lo primero que pensé es que necesitaba tenerlo en mis manos. Y dicho esto, ¡aquí tenéis mi opinión! Discover all the most popular LEGO Harry Potter minifigures as well as rare and unique minifigures you may never have seen before in the LEGO Harry Potter Character Encyclopedia - the ultimate handbook for fans of LEGO Harry Potter.And then there was the Old-Fashioned Chocolate Buttermilk Sheet Cake Disaster. I was surprised at how liquid-y the batter was, and even more surprised that it only called for a 9x13 pan. Thinking that this cake probably wouldn't rise so much, I went ahead and used all the batter in one pan. Disaster. Complete, utter, total disaster. I followed the recipe to a tee and what happened? The batter bubbled up all over my oven, and continued to bubble and spill everywhere even after I removed it from the oven. All those ingredients, wasted. Smoke everywhere. Did the author even test this recipe? This should have been for two pans, or perhaps four round pans. DO NOT try to bake this in only one 9x13 pan, unless you want to waste the rest of the batter.
