Media Reviews
Angela Nilsen honestly confronts the ambiguities in recipes for 50 classic dishes and, in doing so, brings a refreshing new clarity to every one of them -- Rick Stein OBE Mixing the culinary knowledge of others with the vastness of her own has helped Angela create perfect recipes between these pages. The book is not just about cooking, it also provides the right ingredients for bedtime reading, making sure you wake up hungry for more. -- Gary Rhodes This book is first rate and I hope it has the success it deserves. Angela describes and explains each dish so that it can be completely understood - why you do things as well as what you do. In a market crowded with cookbooks these recipes are the closest I've seen to definitive. -- Shaun Hill A fascinating book. Angela Nilsen goes back to the beautiful simplicity of famous classics and fine-tunes them to perfection with advice from top chefs and food writers. On the way, we get invaluable bits of information and advice -- Claudia Roden
