A SAVIOUR, BASIC COOKERY HANDBOOK, 27 Sep 2005
By Colin Neville (United Kingdom) - See all my reviews As a Type 1 Diabetic since 1963, blood testing, correct Insulin dosage and correct quantities of sensible foods are my first daily basic essentials for continuation of life. When my ex-wife announced an unexpected divorce in 1990, I had to learn very quickly, how to cook; in order to survive. This book was my saviour. It teaches the rudiments for the preparation and cooking of: vegetables, meats, poultry and fish, in an easy to understand no frills, no nonsense manner. It recommends portion sizes/weights, cooking times and temperatures. It also suggests which vegetables to accompany the subject meat, poultry or fish dish. A first ... Read More: >>More Details |

Overall, there's some passably decent recipes here, but it depends how you want them presented.
If you've just started out as a veggie and your family are not very sympathetic, a book with a tone like this is going to help make them regard you as the family freak. It might help them to find practical (if quite boring) ways of feeding you in the short term, but in the long run it will have your family 'putting up' with your so-called eccentric feeding habits like they'd put up with it if you were mildly mentally retarded. Even the childish title is about having a 'lack' of something! The tone of the introduction is incredibly patronising, putting forward the kind of twee statements most vegetarians will have got sick ... Read More: >>More Details |

How to Boil an Egg: Simple Cookery for One (Paperfronts)by: Jan Arkless March 24, 1986 |

My Mum bought me this wonderful little book when I left home and 10 years later I still refer to it. My husband also thinks it is great and I am buying it for my friend (who has just started cooking) for Christmas.
It is easy to follow and doesn't blind you with jargon, endless ingredients and long complicated recipies. Tips on how to fill your cupboard with essential ingredients. From scratch: preparing beef, vegetables, chicken, eggs, fish, desserts progressing up to the dreaded Sunday lunch and of course how to boil an egg which is worth the price of the book itself! A must have in your recipie book collection. Now me and my husband love my cooked Sunday lunches, but I would be nothing, nothing without this ... Read More: >>More Details |

The Dinner Party Planner (Paperfronts)by: Jan Arkless May 21, 1990 |
||
|
I got this small paperback many years ago and have refered to it constantly over the years. Jan Akless writer of Student grub and How to boil an egg, gives clear and simple directions to make easy unpretentious dinner partys. With the first section showing suggested menus and the second part the recipes. Some of these are a little dated now, in these days of grilled polenta and chilli jam, but all work well and are delicious. Essential reading for the dinner-party novice.

How to Boil an Eggby: Jan Arkless 1992-03 |

Yesterday I started reading "How to Boil An Egg" by Jan Arkless.
In the Introduction Arkless states she originally wrote this book for her son when he left home for college. Later on that page she wrote, "Also, fresh fruit or milk is far better for you than soft drinks or alcohol." When I saw that sentence I just knew this book had been written by a mother.
Arkless made this book to be a basic self-book aimed at singles who know nothing or very little about cooking and meal planning. In addition to instructions on how to boil an egg she tells you how to fix eggs in other ways--frying, poaching, scrambling and how to make a grilled cheese sandwich.
The author writes well and I found it fun to read through ... Read More:
