5.0 out of 5 stars Outstanding - comprehensive, practical, beautifully printed., 6 Mar 2008
By nemo "smiley_nemo" (London) - See all my reviews
(VINE VOICE)   
This review is from: 1080 Recipes (Hardcover)
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 Spanish Cooking To The Highest Order, 3 Mar 2008
By Mr. B. Ambrose (London, England) - See all my reviews
(VINE VOICE)    (REAL NAME)   
This review is from: 1080 Recipes (Hardcover)
When travelling to Spain over the years, I have gained a wide range of tastes for Spanish food. Well I thought I had till I came across this gem of a book.

As the sticker on the front of the book says, this is the bible of Spanish cooking in every sense. The different recipes in here could keep you going for years. Having tried a few of them already, I know that this book has definitely converted me to cook Spanish style food whenever I now go out there. The recipes all work brilliantly; the book is beautifully put together.

The book also includes foods from all the different Spanish regions

This book is up there with the best, and anything Spanish you care to cook, you are sure to find it in here. It's a big robust book, with wonderful pictures and illustrations, and is sure to bring many years of enjoyment. I couldn't recommend this book highly enough it's just Magnífico!

5.0 out of 5 stars Spain on a plate., 30 Oct 2007
By Topsy (East Sussex, UK) - See all my reviews
This review is from: 1080 Recipes (Hardcover)
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.
