After many years, I've re-subscribed to Gourmet. I must say I'm terribly disappointed. The recipes are terribly "dumbed-down" and they are broken up into how long a dish takes to prepare. I understand that not everyone has time to cook, however there are many publications that already cater to that particular market. Most of what is being presented in the pages of Gourmet is common knowledge to anyone that cooks.
I did however get a great laugh from an article on Moroccan cuisine.
"Paul Bowles was onto something when he decided to stay in Morocco for good"
Um. Yes, I'm sure he was, but I don't think it was the mint tea or rosewater peanuts.
Good heavens.
