The Complete Book of Mince

The Complete Book of Mince

by ReneLaSagne (Author)

Synopsis

In the days before low-fat this and zero-calorie that, and in an era when obesity only showed itself in the occasional family who were a little on the big-boned side, generations ate in moderation and were happily brought up on traditional home-cooked family food and handed-down recipes. Of all these staples, mince was one of the most accessible and popular foods.

Media Reviews
'Best-selling chefs Gordon Ramsay and Jamie Oliver have a new rival - The Complete Book of Mince - so mum's treat has gone all posh, and Rene proves mince is fit for a prince.' The Sun 2/9/08 'A veritable feast of mince recipes by up and coming celebrity chef Rene La Sagne.' Evening Telegraph, Dundee 29/9/08 'Scattered throughout the book are tips, observations and commentary on mince's history and restaurant etiquette. A funny, brave, new cookery book from not-yet-celebrity chef Rene La Sagne, the self-styled Prince of Mince. This book might put your taste buds into overdrive.' The Weekly News, 27 September 2008 'Many recipes and amusing facts about mince' The Daily Record 20/9/08 'Beefy good humour, - (it) features 72 essential recipes from good-old fashioned mince and tatties to gourmet meals. The book is a beefy barrel of laughs - full of amazing new ways of serving an old Scottish favourite.' The Sunday Post, 28/9/08 'Apart from the recipes, which are truly mince magic, the book overflows with useful dining tips. It proves mum was years ahead of her time and I am sure that before long La Sagne's name will be up there with Jamie Oliver, Gordon Ramsay, and Heston Blumenthal in the league of celebrity chefs. It is rare to find a chef who mixes the wisdom of Confucius with the culinary nous of Rab C Nesbitt. This is a brilliant new book. Thank you Waverley for brightening my day.'
