Dulce de Leche, 7 common household ingredients that turn into.... O  M  G.......the recipe for DdL Banana Pie, makes my mouth water.Only recently was I introduced to DdL.  The first time was with a version of the Banana pie recipe.  The second was when hubby brought home little DdL cakes from Brazil.  I am looking forward to expanding my horizons with this book.When looking for a cookbook that I want to keep, I look for several things. Does the book describe the types of ingredients that are being used? Are the amounts and directions specific? Are there any personal anecdotes about the recipes being shown? Are there pictures to show me how it should look? Does the recipe give a preparation time? Is the layout of the recipe easy to follow and preferably on one page. For the kindle there is an additional thing I look for. Is there a clickable table of contents? None of these are deal breakers. However, the more of the above questions that are answered in yes , the better chance of me purchasing it.Comments following refer to my cookbook wish list above.1.  There are no photos2.  The format is Title, followed by description, followed by an ingredient list with one ingredient per line. finally the directions are written in paragraph form (not my favorite method).3. No mention of number of servings.4. No mention of preparation time.5. 4 methods of preparing DdL are given.6. There is a clickable TOC.7.  The author discusses the history and importance of DdL.I found the writing to be clear and concise.  While I prefer bullet point style for giving directions.  The paragraphs were well written.I recommend this book. You can never ever have enough Dulce de Leche.
