This massive tome has a wealth of information about everything to do with the meat we buy and eat. The pictures of what happens in abatoirs are salutary and remind one that to eat meat is a privilege. It's much more than a recipe book: more an instruction manual about which cuts to choose and how to cook them.
The author is convincing in his discussion of the ethical issues connected with different types of farming and the necessity to use every part of a carcass if an animal has been reared in a humane way. But it's far from being a polemical book: one can almost smell the aroma as he describes meat sizzling and browning and there are loads of inviting recipes that inspire one to get in the kitchen. There's also ... Read More: >>More Details |

This book has wonderful photos and high production values, which is a good disguise for the heavy and unimaginative recipes. I bought this book on a whim over a year ago and have only ever cooked a couple of recipes from it. They were nice, but nothing amazing and they have not become staples in my repertoire. Many of the recipes rely too heavily on cheese or other dairy products, which make them quite fatty (though I'm sure with all that fat they'd taste good). The worst section by far is the desserts - they are almost all cheesecakes. Seriously, there are five cheesecake recipes. If I live to 100 I don't think I will ever have cause to bake a cheesecake on more than half a dozen occassions, probably less.
Save your money and buy either a vege ... Read More: >>More Details |

I have to be honest, I am not normally drawn to this sort of `cookbook', but I am so glad I was and looked inside! A friend described this book as a `grown-up' cookbook and I now understand what she meant!
Within the pastel covers are not the oodles of colour photos that would normally encourage one to flick through, in fact the only illustrations there are, are subtle and simple, and limited to the opening of each new chapter. But, strangely enough, that is all that is required. Additionally, any book that refers to the great `Elizabeth David`, and her editor, Jill Norman, is sure to find a place on my bookshelf! From the rear cover:- `Following the phenomenal success of `Roast Chicken and Other Stories', `Second Helpings' ... Read More: >>More Details |

I have been given this book by my husband(with a personal dedication by the author) after my husband had watched one of her cookery demonstrations.
I read the book from cover to cover - like a novel, and got a lot of new ideas for 'tweaking' some of my old favourites, with excellent and much praised results. I have also tried several of the recipes 'as is' and I must say, from the description of processes to end result it was easy to follow and delicious to eat. If I were really pedantic I would have this one complaint to make: Being German by birth and having grown up in the countryside in Germany and subsequently having been involved with hunting in all variations whilst growing up and now being a 'Gun' myself (also my Mum is a trained Chef ...

Why use 3 ingredients when 20 will do. I found myself asking this many times during my use of this book. Many of the recipes were overcomplicated when the basic art of sausagemaking is essentialy simple, our forefathers didn't have the range of ingredients mentioned in Frankfurters for example. Like other reveiwers, I find the use of American measures and terms confusing: crushed red pepper, broiling, pan broiling? So without an addendum to convert the terms to english cooking, expect some frustration and please publishers/authors/booksellers, if you expect your tome to be read outside of the USofA just add a small addendum with the changes required to convert to european measures and terms. >>More Details |

This is a well researched, readable and helpfully illustrated book. It's a very good choice if you want a book that will instruct you in a broad range of techniques, provide reliable recipes and inspire you to transform lemons, a whole organic pig and everything else in between.
Don't worry that this book is over-verbose. There's no wasted text unless you can only think in bullet points! >>More Details |
