Query: This is not a good cookbook for the typical American family.

I found the meals too gourmet for our taste. I also found the ingredients used in the recipes to be expensive. For example, a recipe might call for an exotic spice that you will never use again. Therefore, not only was the ingredient expensive in the intial investment, but the remainder went to waste. I tried to use the book for one week. By the time we got to Wednesday, my husband, who is not a picky eater, was looking at that cookbook on our kitchen counter with absolute disgust. So now, I am left with a cookbook I can't use and a bunch of spices that I probably will never use.
