Rating: 4 out of 5

As an avid cook, award-winning vegetarian cookbook author and instructor/columnist, I'm all for making as much as possible "from scratch".  :-)Author Steph Hatfield provides a nice selection of condiment recipes in this book. Everything from basic ketchup to more exotic fare like infused oils, There are recipes for salsa, two types of mustard, steak sauce, mayonnaise, salad dressings..all explained well and easy enough for even novice cooks to make.I would have appreciated a few more recipes in this guide, that's why I'm giving 4 stars instead of 5. But the recipes that are included could definitely be used again and again.Not only are homemade condiments SO MUCH tastier, they also help with the grocery budget and are much healthier options too.I also noted and appreciated that the author does not "go overboard" on the salt and sugar in the recipes. Something that is the case all too often, in similar recipe guides.Recommended!Geraldine Helen Hartman author of The Groovy Green Kitchen: Weeknight Veggie Slow Cooker
