(More customer reviews)I've had this book a couple of years now and I found some of the recipes easy to follow like the chicken adobo and mechado. I try to make these two recipes at least once a week. Though I did find the Brazo de Mercedes (found in the dessert section) hard to understand because it doesn't really give a thorough detailed type or explanation of ingredients needed. For example the author didn't exactly say what type of milk needed- Filipinos use canned evaporated milk and I find it doesn't work with regular milk you find in any U.S. supermarket in the dairy section. It also doesn't give you a specific amount of time or how long it takes for the milk to be reduced to two cups! (the recipes calls for 5 cups of milk to start with and simmering the milk until it is reduced to 2) That could take an hour or more. I found Violeta A. Noriega's Philippine Recipe made Easy more thorough and detailed.
