Product Description

Review

Synonymous with comfort cooking and the countryside, the Aga is slowly taking over urban areas, becoming the modern-day choice for the modern family. Aga cookery specialist, Amy Willcock, imparts her in-depth knowledge on what can at first be a daunting prospect. Through her easy, informative writing, the Aga will soon become a long-loved friend, never to be parted from. And before all non-Aga owners turn away, the scrummy recipes also include conventional instructions so the Aga's image of homemade food can be enjoyed in every home. Recipes range from the traditional Shepherds Pie and casseroles to Christmas fare and recipes with an international flavour such as Hot Asian Tuna Salad and Crab Spring Rolls. And being an Aga cookbook and therefore essentially British, puddings in all their scrumptious varieties are included: Chocolate Pecan Pie, Banana, Peach and Rum Crumble and Panattone pudding. If you already own an Aga you'll realises how much more it can give you after reading this and, if you don't, you will soon be yearning for one. - Lucy Watson


Simon Page, Sales & Marketing Manager, Aga.

"Amy Willcock brings her effervescent personality and a real enthusiasm to Aga cooking. Her recipes are delicious and her book a joy to read."

4.0 out of 5 stars Owning an AGA really does become a way of life .......', 11 April 2007
By ABCeDar - See all my reviews
(TOP 50 REVIEWER)   
`Owning an AGA really does become a way of life - it is a trusted friend in the kitchen. I adore cooking with my AGA and wouldn't dream of having anything else.'

In this book, `Amy shares the essential secrets for getting the best out of your AGA. Starting with all the information you need to use your AGA, `AGA Cooking' shows you just how simple it is to cook with it and how to adapt recipes originally devised for conventional cooking.
Packed with ideas and hints, tips and techniques, `AGA Cooking' is the book no AGA owner should be without.'

Where old favourites such as `toad-in-the-hole' and `shepherd's pie' meet the lesser well known `crab spring rolls with lemon oil' and `baked pumpkin with cream and gruyere cheese', this book has 192 high quality, shiny pages split over 12 main chapters, sandwiched between the 14 page introduction and a concise index:-

Breakfast and brunch
Soups and starters
Family foods
Chicken and game
Meat
Fish and seafood
Vegetables
Puddings
Baking
Christmas entertaining
Mummy's little helpers
On the side

The introduction section has a brief history of AGA cooking - `How it All Began', in 1922, plus `AGA Know-How' including the various ovens:-
The Roasting Oven
The Simmering Oven
The Warming Oven
Cookware for your AGA
Cleaning/caring/servicing
AGA IRONING (!)
Converting recipes e.g. for a 2 oven AGA or a 4-oven AGA
and AGA A.A.G. (At A Glance)

Each recipe is well laid out with clear ingredients list and method, with useful notes re `conventional cooking' modification.
Full colour, double-page spreads open each chapter, but, generally, the book is perhaps a little light on photography. Having said that, the dishes which are pictured are simply mouth-watering, e.g. the 'Oven-roasted Spare Ribs', on page 87 or the `Sephardic Orange Cake', on page 145!

Other recipes include:-

AGA porridge
Banana and walnut muffins
Roasted garlic and onion soup
Rouille
Grilled tiger prawn and fennel salad
Old fashioned meatloaf
Crispy duck pancakes with plum sauce
Braised beef
Balsamic pork roast
Roast potatoes
Glazed ham for a crowd
Christmas pudding snow-drift
AGA-toasted cheese sandwich
Pigs in blankets
School fete cake
Apple Cake
Seville orange marmalade
Glazed passion fruit tart

and a superb recipe for

Tarte Tatin

and if you are looking for a good excuse to buy a 'Tarte Tatin dish, `Le Creuset' make a cast iron favourite, in a variety of colours, and on free delivery, at Amazon, today!

4.0 out of 5 stars Easy modern recipes, 14 Jan 2003
For a new owner, this book really helped me to understand how to translate conventional recipes into Aga/Rayburn recipes. The results have been delicious, especially the roasted vine tomato soup, balsamic pork and chocolate brownies. A word of warning, leave out the shot of espresso if you plan to eat the brownies before bedtime!
