Rachel Allen - Rachel's Food for Living
It's a jungle out there. With the number of TV chefs vying for our attention (along with all their attendant books), we really need to hack our way through the foliage to discover those worthy of our attention. With Rachel's Food for Living, Rachel Allen moves effortlessly to the top of the pile, and this book (which accompanies a 13-part BBC prime-time series) does full justice to its video version. What distinguishes Rachel Allen from so many other chefs is the way in which she appreciates that food must be integrated into our lives, rather than just being fuel or a way of showing off our culinary skills. As Allen points out, food can be restorative, nurturing and emotionally fulfilling, even apart from its tastiness. As she reminds us, the ritual of eating may be formalised or spontaneous, and the appreciation of the way in which we can approach food in different ways is very much at the heart of Rachel’s Food for Living.
But if all of the above sounds a little forbidding, it should be noted that the book here functions admirably as a guide to the best available food - and leaving aside any philosophical underpinnings, there are over 100 delicious recipes included here, from Perfect Lamb Stew and Chicken with Lemon and Honey to Banana and Chocolate Bread and Butter Pudding. The recipes are presented in as user-friendly a fashion as possible, with full-page illustrations showing us just what we can aspire to in our own kitchens. When Allen says this book is filled with foods which have special meaning for her, her family and friends, it makes clear the personal nature of the recipes on offer here.
Nigella Lawson - Nigellissima
Nigellissima takes inspiration from Italian cooking to bring the spirit of Italy into the kitchen and onto the plate, pronto. At the heart of Italian cookery lies a celebration of food that is fresh, tasty and unpretentious; Nigella Lawson reflects this in recipes that are simple and speedy, elevating everyday eating into no-fuss feasts. Italian food has colonised the world. Nigellissima shows us how and why in over 100 delicious dishes - from telephone-cord pasta with Sicilian pesto to the crustless Meatzza, from Sardinian couscous to Venetian stew, from penne to papardelle, from rag to risotto, from Italian apple pie and no-churn ices to panna cotta and sambuca kisses - in a round-Italy quickstep that culminates in a festive chapter of party food, with an Italian-inspired Christmas feast as its mouthwatering centrepiece. From the traditional to the unfamiliar, here are recipes to excited the taste buds and the imagination, without stressing the cook. Nigella's gastronomic heart is in Italy, and in this new book she conjures up, with passionate relish, the warmth, simplicity and directness of Italian cooking, with an Anglo-twist. Illustrated with gorgeous photographs to instruct and delight Nigellissima is accompanied by a major new BBC TV series.
Nigella Lawson - How to Eat
Hailed by many as their cookbook of 1998, if not the decade. How To Eat is far more than just an imaginative collection of over 350 uncomplicated, delecious recipes. Nigella Lawson combines a refreshingly down-to-earth practically with a passion for food and a writer's ability to find just the right words to evoke the taste of a succulent roast chicken or a home-made custard. Her excellent advice on how to organise your kitchen (and your life) for the minimum of fuss is interspersed with moments of sheer, unadulterated pleasure as she pauses to relish what she is preparing to eat. Now available as a high-quality, good-value trade paperback, readers will be able to buy two copies: one for the kitchen, one for the bed-side table. The reviews of the hardback were stunning: 'The one book you have to buy this year' Daily Mail. My book of the decade. I love this book: its prose, its intelligence and, above all, its workable, soul-warming receipes, Nigel Slater.
Rachel Allen - A család kedvencei
A TV Paprika nézői már jól ismerik Rachel Allent, a kedves, szőke, ír fiatalasszonyt, aki fáradhatatlan lelkesedéssel mutatja be a minőségi alapanyagokat, a legújabb trendeket, és a praktikus megoldásokat.
A könyvben Rachel Allen a legutóbbi tv-műsorában bemutatott ízletes, inspiráló és könnyen elkészíthető fogásokat mutatja be, melyek híressé tették. Rachel a nemzetközi konyhaművészet alapjaira, a tradícionális vidéki konyhára, valamint a jó öreg családi klasszikusokra épít, és ezáltal bármilyen alkalomra kreatív lehetőségeket kínál fel az olvasóknak, akár egy egyszerű családi ebédre vagy ünnep vacsorára kívánunk főzni, esetleg egy romantikus fogást készítenénk a párunknak, vagy ha egy ragyogó piknikre vágyunk, vagy ha éppcsak kedvenc harapnivalónkat majszolnánk a kanapén heverve, netán muffint sütnénk a gyermekeinkkel.
A BBC -ahol műsorai nagy sikerrel futnak- minősítése szerint Rachel az "Ír szakácskirálynő". A Good Food Magazin szerint pedig az ír konyhát végleg elhelyezte a világ gasztrotérképén.
Nigella Lawson - How to be a Domestic Goddess

How to be a Domestic Goddess is the book that understands our anxieties, feeds our fantasies and puts cakes, pies, pastries, preserves, puddings, bread and biscuits back into today's kitchen and our lives.

Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall - Every Day
Putting food on the table for the family quickly and economically doesn't mean you have to compromise on quality. This book shows how Hugh's approach to food can be adapted to suit any growing, working family, or busy young singles and couples for that matter. Breakfast, baking, lunchboxes, quick suppers, healthy snacks, eating on the move and weekend cooking for the week ahead - all these, and more, will be covered in River Cottage Every Day. As Hugh says: 'I make no prior assumptions about where you shop, what you may or may not know about growing vegetables or keeping livestock, whether you can tell the difference between a swede and turnip, or know what to do with a belly of pork and a breast of lamb. Instead, I'll show you easy and confidence-inspiring ways with cuts of meat, types of fish and other ingredients you may not have tried before. And I'll offer you new approaches that I hope will breath new life to familiar staples, like rice, spuds, beans, and your daily bread. Above all, I intend to tempt you irresistibly towards a better life with food, with a whole raft of recipes that I think you will love. I hope some of them will become your absolute favourites, and the favourites of your dear friends and beloved family. I hope that the dishes you like best will infiltrate and influence your cooking, giving you increased confidence and fresh ideas. In short, I hope that before long, cooking simple and delicious food from the best seasonal ingredients becomes second nature and first priority for you, not just once in a while, but every day.'
Nigella Lawson - Kitchen
A big, compendious, comfortable, informative and utterly engaging book, "Kitchen" brings us feel-good food for cooks and eaters, whether Express-style and exotic-easy during the week, or leisurely and luxuriating (in the spirit of How to be a Domestic Goddess and Feast) at weekends or for occasions. Divided into two parts - Kitchen Quandaries and Kitchen Comforts - Nigella gives us the wherewithal to tackle any situation and satisfy all nourishment needs. But real cooking is often about leftovers, too, so here one recipe can lead to another...from ham hocks to pea soup and pasties, from chicken to Chinatown salad. This isn't just about being thrifty but about demonstrating how recipes come about, and giving new inspiration for last-minute meals and souped-up store cupboard suppers. As well as offering the reader a mouthwatering array of new recipes, both comforting and exciting - from clams with chorizo to Guinness gingerbread, from Asian braised beef to flourless chocolate lime cake, from Pasta alla Genovese to Venetian carrot cake - Nigella rounds up her kitchen kit must-haves (telling us, too, what equipment we don't need) and highlights individual ingredients - both basic essentials and modern-day life-savers. But above all, she reminds the reader how much pleasure there is to be had in real food, and in reclaiming the traditional rhythms of the kitchen, as she cooks to the beat of the heart of the home, creating simple recipes to make life less complicated.

Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall - River Cottage minden napra
"Ebben a könyvben ismét megpróbálok minél többeket boldogabbá tenni. Ezért aztán leírom, milyen ételeket eszem nap mint nap otthon, mi a viszonyunk a kenyérrel, a hússal, a hallal, a gyümölcsökkel és a zöldségekkel; három éhes iskolás gyerek mellett hogyan zsonglőrködünk a reggelivel, és dolgozó szülőkként mit eszünk a hétköznapokon ebédre. Azt is elmesélem, hogy miért készítünk rengeteg ételt (köztük néhány abszolút kedvencünket) előző napi maradékokból. Megpróbálom bemutatni, a családi főzések alkalmával hogyan helyezhetünk nagyobb hangsúlyt a zöldségekre és gyümölcsökre, és miként hozhatjuk ki a legtöbbet a legértékesebb alapanyagokból, például a húsból és a halból. Néhány hasznos ötlettel rávilágítok, hogy az otthoni vendéglátás kevésbé ijesztő, olcsóbb és alapvetően örömtelibb is lehet. Az olvasók elé tárom a recepteket, amelyeket a családomnak főzök, és azokat is, amiket - amikor igazán szerencsés vagyok - ők készítenek nekem."
Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall díjnyertes író, médiaszemélyiség; a szezonális termények fogyasztása és a lelkiismeretes állattenyésztés rendíthetetlen harcosa. Tizenöt éve készít és vezet műsorokat a brit Channel Four televíziós csatornán, ez a hatodik River Cottage-könyve. Korábbi munkái közül a The River Cottage Cookbook cíművel elnyerte a Glenfiddich-díjat. A The River Cottage Meat Book és a The River Cottage Fish Book egyaránt megkapta az André Simon-kitüntetést, a The River Cottage Family Cookbookot pedig a Gasztronómiai Írók Szövetsége az év szakácskönyvének választotta. A Guardianben hetente olvasható receptrovatot vezet. Hugh családjával Devonban él, egy kőhajításnyira a River Cottage HQ-tól, ahol ő és csapata tanít, valamint különféle rendezvényeiken fejezik ki a helyi, szezonális alapanyagokból készített ételek iránti szeretetüket.
Jamie Oliver - Jamie at Home
This book is very close to my heart. It's about no-nonsense, simple cooking with great flavours all year round. When I began writing it, I didn't really know what recipes I would come up with, but something began to inspire me very quickly... my vegetable patch! I came to realise last year that it's not always about looking out at the wider world for inspiration. Being at home, feeling relaxed and open, can also offer this. I love to spend time at home in the village where I grew up, working with the boss, Mother Nature, in my garden and seeing all my beautiful veggies coming out of the ground. Inside you'll find over 100 new recipes, plus some basic planting information and tips if you fancy having a go at getting your hands dirty as well!
Jamie Oliver - Jamie's America
I wrote this book to get to the heart of great American food, to get past the junk and super-sized portions. From New York to New Orleans, the energy of Los Angeles to the big skies of Wyoming, I found what I was looking for: some of the most diverse and delicious recipes I've ever come across!
Nigella Lawson - Nigella falatozója
Nigella Lawson a brit szakácskönyvírók legifjabb nemzedékének egyik legjobb és legismertebb képviselője, s mindemellett kiváló háziasszony is. Könyveivel sikert aratott hazája határain belül és kívül egyaránt. Nigella a Vogue konyharovatának vezetője, de rendszeresen publikál az Observer és a Times Magazine hasábjain is. Jelenleg Londonban él két gyermekével. Szakácskönyveivel valamint televíziós sorozatával Nigella valóságos fogalommá vált a háziasszonyok körében. A jó étel igen jelentős szerepet tölt be mindennapjainkban, és mára Nigella jelképezi mindazt, ami a főzésben és az étkezésben igazán szép, jó, örömteli és mentes minden fölösleges hókuszpókusztól. Mostani könyve szorosan kapcsolódik az azonos című televíziós sorozathoz. A Nigella falatozója a képernyőről már jól ismert recepteken kívül számos új étel leírásával is megajándékoz bennünket, melyek, legyenek bár a régi kedvencek izgalmas változatai vagy éppen vadonatúj alkotások, mind a szerző és a televíziós sorozat szellemiségét tükrözik: egyszerűek, frissek, eredetiek, és nagyszerűen illenek mai életmódunkhoz. Egy fárasztó munkanap után is egyszerűen összeüthetjük őket, akár a gyerekeket is bevonva a munkába és a szórakozásba, hogy aztán együtt csodálhassuk munkánk ínycsiklandó eredményét, és élvezhessük az evés örömét. Nigella minden vágya, hogy olvasói és nézői osztozzanak vele a főzés és evés nyújtotta örömökben, ennek köszönhetően már a receptek olvasása és a fotók nézegetése is gyönyörűséggel tölthet el bennünket.

And to top it all there's a fabulous selection of unusual ice creams and melt-in-the-mouth puddings - could you resist Nigella's Slut-red Raspberries in Chardonnay Jelly, heaven on a plate (one amazon reader declared she 'could jump into a swimming pool full of this') Relaxed, easy cooking, easy eating: the keynote is simplicity, freshness, enjoyment, and you can cook from it all year round. Ravishingly illustrated with full-colour photos throughout.
