5.0 out of 5 stars Rosemary Shrager's school for cooks, 9 Aug 2008

T. Bemrose "Tulip" (England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)

This review is from: School for Cooks (Hardcover)

Another wonderfully mouth watering book by Rosemary. I only received my copy of her new book today and am heading out to buy some salmon to make the Conft of Salmon with Courgette Spaghetti and my next venture will be the Roast Duck Breasts with Onion Tart and Butternut Squash Gratin.

All the recipes look absolutely scrumptious and I have found those that I have done out of her first book to be fool proof and Rosemary's instructions are easy to follow.

I do not normally bother to read Introductions to books, but this one is enchanting, like reading a mini novel and her notes in between each section are so readable and informative. Well done Rosemary, not only are you a superb chef, a most entertaining TV personality but also an excellent writer.

D. Tordoff (Yorkshire) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)

This review is from: School for Cooks (Hardcover)

I bought this book after watching the series which I loved. The recipes are easy to follow and everything is explained clearly although I wouldn't say its a book for complete beginners. Ive dooked a few of the recipes and they are gorgeous....highly recommended. If you want a taster of her recipes you can actually download them from the ITV website.

3.0 out of 5 stars For the socially adept, 4 Feb 2009

Mal Page "Mal Page" (UK) - See all my reviews
(VINE VOICE)

This review is from: School for Cooks (Hardcover)

This is an impressive tome which would make a lovely gift for your foodie mates. The photographs are gorgeous, not just of the food but also scenes from, and around, the 'School' too.
However, it is aimed at dinner party fodder and wouldn't necessarily suit those who just want quick, tasty, dishes during the week. I was also slightly disappointed that, as it is a combined book about both series of School for Cooks, that some of the recipes I wanted from the second series weren't here.
