The rating of the different categories comes from the opinion of Delibris' collaborators
It is a pleasant book, in which the author tells her culinary experiences. It must be assumed that she likes to cook and knows how to do it. She offers numerous recipes and narrates her experiences, with successes, failures and abundant touches of humor, to which she adds her gastronomic opinions and some clues about her life. She defends good eating as a meeting place, a place to rest, a support to improve family life and to strengthen friendship and social relationships, especially in environments where activism and lack of time to live together in peace predominate. As the author says "without the advice transmitted from cook to cook, human beings would have become extinct long ago."
