Review
'Marcus Wareing's recipes couldn't be further from Fat Duck fiddliness... this book is all about comfort food. There's little banter, just lots of favourites, such as sausage rolls, curries, roasts and page after page of sweet treats. Nutmeg and Custard is a welcome addition to the domestic-kitchen bookshelf.' --Independent on Sunday
'a book filled with what's important to people who love cooking - good ideas, things to learn and ways to make everyday dishes come alive' --Delicious magazine
'packed with ideas that reinvent the classics: crumpets, sweetcorn fritters, rack of lamb, fillet of salmon and upmarket beef burgers' --The Sunday Telegraph

Format:Hardcover
I agree with a number of the other reviewers here - I found there to be few recipes that I wanted to cook. Those that I did find appeared not to have been tested properly before publishing.

Some great looking and sounding dishes in this book, however recipes are not that well written. Tried several things and none were great, 2 were a complete and utter disaster. Recipes timing are far too short (20 minutes to cook beans from scratch? More like 60... and that is only one example) and in places the ingredient list is not specific (chorizo to coat monkfish - cured or cooking chorizo? Doesn't work with cured but no mention of that). Also tried to make cheese and herb muffins - absolutley disgusting!
If you can use it for ideas, well go for it, it's certainly an interesting book, but I won't be using it again after some very expensive monkfish tails went in the bin.....

This is great stuff. It's got everything from brilliant things you can do with popcorn and a great burger recipe, to fancier stuff which takes a bit more time but, so far, tastes amazing. And he's clearly got a bit of a sweet tooth because there are LOTS of puddings, ice creams and the like. You can even make your own jaffa cakes.. And it's a lovely thing to look at too. Great photos, etc.

Caveat Emptor
I've been HUGELY disappointed with this book. Many recipes are shoddily written up, with some ingredients listed but then not featuring in the recipe method at all. Read more

Page Lick'in Good
The recipes in this book bring out the urge to lick the pages...even the ones without pictures. Within a few pages, I could feel any new year's diet resolution biting the dust. Read more

Brilliant!
A cooks cook book.
Quite technical and not one for the novice.
