Product Description
Review
"Food and Drink" is televisions longest-running food show. Started in 1982 it has regularly attracted a large audience and gained a solid following despite changes in presenters. Covering not only recipes and wine suggestions, information on food purchasing, storing and basic cooking are included for both run-of-the-mill ingredients as well as the more exotic. Reflecting today's multi-cultural society, "Food and Drink" encompasses recipes from around the world and has been at the forefront of these new cooking methods and ingredients from the start. Attractively laid-out, well-illustrated and clearly written, this is an invaluable culinary handbook backed by "Food and Drink's" high standards. The recipe section includes perennial favourites such as sausages and mash, peppered steaks and baked ham and the more exotic sticky ribs, creamy curried lamb and beef tortilla wraps. Bread, cakes, desserts and preserves are all covered and the book is rounded off with a comprehensive wine section describing not only how to care for wine and serve it but also explaining the different grape varieties and types. For "Food and Drink" addicts, new cooks or veteran chefs, all will find something of interest within these pages. - Lucy Watson
