5.0 out of 5 stars Outstanding - comprehensive, practical, beautifully printed., 6 Mar 2008
I bought this book after reading a review in one of the Sunday papers. It is a gem. It presents the authentic face of modern Spanish cooking and it's influences, as well as a comprehensive selection of older classics. In addition, in this English edition, it takes time to explain terms and techniques that you might not be familiar with.

It makes a great present in that not only is it beautifully written, but also features some great illustrations.

Above all, it contains recipes that are "do - able". Think not of Roux/Ramsey/Blanc, but more Delia Smith and above all Nigel Slater.

Overall, a superb introduction to Spanish cooking presented in a stylish way, which I cannot find fault with.

5.0 out of 5 stars Spain on a plate., 30 Oct 2007
By Topsy (East Sussex, UK) - See all my reviews
I had heard about 1080 Recipes from Spanish friends, who claim that this book is the most reliable guide to cooking Spanish food. My language skills are OK, but not up to following recipes, so it's great to have the book in English. It's a substantial volume, with lots of colourful illustrations and it's going to take me a while to work through all the recipes. As you might expect there are a lot of seafood recipes - almost 150, but I was pleasantly surprised to find 136 pages on Vegetables and Mushrooms, which will help me to do more interesting things with the contents of the weekly veg box. It would make a great Christmas present - it's more interesting than the Nigella/Jamie books! I have to give it five stars, as it's such good value for such a beautiful, and useful, book.

5.0 out of 5 stars astoundingly useful, 1 Nov 2007
having just borowed this book from my local library im now rushing to order my own copy. even after a quick ruffle though you can see how well used this is going to become, i doubt it will leave the kitchen! the recipes are simple and look delicious, the illistrations are pretty and the little photo pages are useful i think anyone would find many favourites in this book, one to be handed down the family cooking stains on pages and all, now im inspired to find out about italys favourite cokbook "the silver spoon"
