A common complaint that I see in cookbook reviews at Amazon is that the ingredients are so specialized and unusual that they can't find them in stores around where they live. That may be a downside to this book.

Thanks for the tip.
Are you referring to that wonderful fabulous milk candy? That I do not keep in the house for fear of becoming as big as a house.
If so, we are as sophisticated as you are.
Dulce de leche in recipes is nothing more than caramelized Eagle Brand Milk.
I specified because some of the other brands skimp on the sugar and the condensing.

I agree there are many cookbooks with specialized ingredients.

Though one magazine totally irked me one day.
A recipe called for Persian Pickles and some very hard to get fish.
The magazine was not Bon Appétit or a similar one.
The magazine was Real Simple.
