    I am about to send this book back for the second time. This time 10 pages were missing from the grains section, and it happened to contain the recipe I was interested in, Orecchiette with Lemon Chicken. Have reordered, if this book is not right it will go back too. I found the recipe on line, but I'm sure I didn't get the only bad copies.
