Mitch is a good friend and his chain of Fishworks restaurants all use my ingredients. This is his latest book and despite the title, the brilliant recipes inside are suitable for any oven, not just an AGA. There are also plenty of spicy recipes which i love to see! Definitely Mitch's best book |

This
is the first book from David Everitt-Matthias who runs Le Champignon
Sauvage in Cheltenham, one of the most highly rated restaurants
in the country. He's the lowest profile of the leading chefs in
the UK but is admired within the industry as a supreme talent and
is known as the 'chef's chef' for his dedication. He also has a
very open mind regarding ingredients with a particular interest
in spices and cooks with some of our ingredients and blends. This
book gives a fantastic insight into the work of one of our greatest
chefs ideal for the professional or ambitious home cook. |

Ian
'herbie' Hemphill is something of a guru in the spice industry but
is also a thoroughly nice and modest bloke. His book is everything
the title says - a real bible giving you all the information you'll
ever need about herbs and spices in a very approachable and easy
to understand way. |

This
must be the best of all the millions of curry recipe books out there
and is both authoritative and understandable - a rare combination! |
|
this
is the curry book you need if you're looking for something more
challenging. Not easy to follow but very rewarding if you're a keen
curry cook |
|
Just
a really great book with some useful advice about using spices and
simple but brilliant recipes |
|
No
list of great food books would be complete without a contribution
from the best food writer ever! |

a
fascinating and authoritative guide to buying virtually any food
and drink with all the information you need to know to make an informed
