This book is packed with recipes for which both the beginner and the seasoned chief will be happy. Yes, it speaks of the many foods and appetites of the citizens of this country too!
These recipes will certainly bring back childhood memories for those who would have migrated to other parts of the world, and a bit of homesickness may creep in. Nevertheless, preparing these meals will bring some comfort.
The book also has a bit of informative information about the Carnegie school, and the Home Economic section will be useful.
However, the only downside to this book, if indeed it has a downside, is that it does not have a glossary. A glossary would have certainly been helpful since words such as Callaloo and Boulanger are not universal. Nevertheless, a reader can find out what these items are through various means such as a Web search.
Indeed, the book has lived up to its title, What’s Cooking in Guyana.
