What a great DVD package! I am a huge fan of the tv-program Nigella Bites and was delighted to find this DVD containing all of the Season 1 episodes, including the special holiday program, and some additional recipe footage that had previously been cut from some of the episodes. I have made many of the recipes from this series and have enjoyed most of them. Nigella presents her recipes with an approachable manner, using common sense directions and short cuts, yet still manages to provide dishes that have a more polished,somewhat elegant look. Most of her recipes could just as easily be served to dinner guests as well as for ordinary home meals. The DVD itself is very well presented - you can choose to view all of the episodes in order or select each individually. A great feature is that you can also view a list of all of the recipes featured on the DVD in alphabetical order - simply click on the recipe you are seeking and it will automatically go directly to that particular recipe, not just the episode it is in. Also, you can click on any recipe as it plays and gets a full ingredient list - helpful if you don't already have a copy of the companion cookbook. All in all, a fun show to watch, with delicious recipes that work, and an excellent format to view it on.
