This book is excellent for its cooking instruction alone! The Perfect Roast Potatoes recipe is great as is the Chocolate Bread & Butter Pudding. If you like this one, try the Summer Collection!
Easy to follow, impresive English cooking - good stuff

This book is one of many that the writer has produced. She's very popular in Britain, having presented a number of straight forward but impressive TV programs. This book is very good, with a particularly good chocolate bread and butter pudding (to die for!)
This and all Delia Smith books are wonderful

I own most of Delia Smith's cookbooks, gathered on several trips to the UK over the years. They are fantastic. This one in particular deals with winter comfort/warming food - a personal favorite - covering the whole range of recipes, vegetarian and non vegetarian. In addition to starters and main courses, steamed puddings are covered in this book. In the USA they are neglected, but I think that nothing is more wonderful on a cold winter day than a hot pudding to finish a meal - one that has been steaming for hours on the back of the stove. If only more US cookbooks could take as much care presenting complete, consise, and dependable recipes...I find that most US cookbooks just aren't well written and aren't worth the money. All Delia Smith books are well worth owning
