## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An instant favorite
*by M***E on May 29, 2025*

An instant favorite. Long been a fan of Francis Mallmann and this book does not disappoint. Part coffee table book, part cook book, its recipes are easily adaptable to the home kitchen or campfire…and the stories that are included make for wonderful reading.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Simply the best book about Argentine cooking available in English
*by P***A on May 24, 2009*

"Seven Fires" has to be the best Argentine cookbook available in the English language. For one thing, it's written by a native Argentine, Francis Mallmann, who also happens to be one of the world's greatest chefs. Mallmann has three restaurants of his own, two in Argentina and one in Uruguay. "The Times of London" and "USA Today" have called his restaurants among the ten best places to eat in the world.More than just a simple cookbook, the first ten pages of "Seven Fires" include brief chapters about Mallman's background growing up in the beautiful Patagonian lake district of Bariloche, and some general material about Argentina.There is extensive and detailed information to get you off to the right start, including a chapter on "The Ways of Fire", including how to build and light a fire, the life cycle of a fire, how hot is "hot", and things you should be aware of whether dealing with wood or charcoal. Space is given to the parrilla, which is the grill itself (yours may be a hibachi or a Weber kettle, but principles are the same); the chapa, a flat piece of cast iron set over the coals; the infiernillo technique that involves two fires and which the author poetically refers to as "a little hell"; the horno de barro (outdoor oven); the rescoldo, which is cooking in the embers, and the asador method of cooking whole animals.Separate chapters deal with making Appetizers; Beef; Lamb, Pork & Chicken, Fish & Shellfish, Vegetables, Light Meals & Salads, Deserts, Breads, and Basics (things like sauces and tapenades). There is plenty of variety among the recipes. Sure, the author addresses cooking an entire cow - which the average reader probably won't be doing at home - but don't worry he also talks about making the perfect steak, and many other recipes for beef. He also presents dishes as wide ranging as empanadas, caramelized endive in vinegar, salt crusted chicken, brook trout in crunchy potato crust, and dulce de leche flan or crepes soufflés with raspberry preserves, and hundreds more. The recipes are generally simple and easy to follow.The photography is gorgeous. Not every finished dish is pictured, but the book is lavishly illustrated with beautiful pictures of food preparation, food presentation, and breathtaking views of the Argentine landscape.Written with the US audience in mind, the measurements are non-metric.This is a beautiful book. It goes far beyond a mere collection of recipes and becomes more of a cultural exploration.Highly recommended!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Everything I've cooked has been good to excellent
*by T***1 on September 9, 2011*

Yes, the pictures and description of cooking "Una Vaca Entera" (a whole cow) are awesome. (Ingredients: 1 medium cow, about 1400 pounds...). But you won't do that - a small asador of rabbit or lamb is more likely.Chimichurri with a small roast has been a big hit. Potato Galette has been a HUGE hit.When your book includes a recipe for "Burnt Tomato Halves", it better be good, and it is (high heat is the key). Smashed Potatos with Tapenade - mmm, gimme more.The Salt Crust Chicken was good but didn't knock me out - as he states, it won't be crispy on the outside. I still prefer to brine and roast my birds.On page 224 with the images of the Granny Smith Pancakes, that looks a lot more like a spackling knife than a spatula - another testament to the unpretentious approach. Some recipes are a bit complicated, but most aren't, and there are plenty of simple ones to choose from.Speaking of Patagonia, it's beautiful. If you ever get the chance, go, but be prepared for high wind, rain, cold, some warm temperatures, and beautiful scenery (mountains, clouds, forests, glaciers, glacial lakes...). Get out and hike.I need to try some of the fish recipes, and I'm looking forward to the Peached Pork...2015 update - tying off a fish, chicken, rabbit, or lamb to some stakes and cooking it over coals isn't easy due to the uneven heat, but it's worth trying. But just sitting outside for a few hours and cooking your own food without a phone, radio, or any other distraction is a great way to lower your blood pressure. Take your time. Simplify.I still haven't made the Peached Pork, but I have made the peaches as a dessert several times, and they're always a hit. Simple to make, too. Cast iron skillet, medium high heat, butter, and ripe peaches. THE PEACHES MUST BE RIPE!!! If not they won't taste good in general, and won't have as much sugar to caramelize with the butter and heat.
