This cookbook, however, is too useful to ever begin gathering dust in your home. With over 50 stunning photographs, just flipping through the pages is akin to touring a gallery of food-based art. See It, Cook It's mouth-watering entries range from pumpkin soup, to quiche, to classic creme brulee. The book is divided into starters, main courses, and desserts. Each recipe includes a gorgeous double-page spread with photographs of the raw ingredients required, a shot of the completed dish, and charming hand-written cooking instructions.
