Rating: - She must think we were all born yesterday!
Oh my word what a useless book.
The 'author' has simply collected recipes and tips that almost all of us have learned elsewhere.
For those who haven't learned, all the recipes can be found for free either online or in a good old fashioned cookery book - probably one sitting on your own shelf!!

I found it insulting and threw it in my recycling box, one less copy of this book is a good thing. Hopefully it'll be recycled into a decent book or toilet tissue.

Rating: - Not so good when you've been cooking a while
I have been married almost 5 years now, and I picked up all my cooking skills in this time, this book would have been very useful when I first got married and started off cooking, but now buying this book - mainly for the meal plans - I feel was a waste of money, as there was nothing new in it!

Rating: - Brilliant way to save money
I was bought this as a present for Christmas and already we have saved money in following the recipe plans at the back of the book. Straight forward, healthy food that are easy to prepare and very tasty. Nice to find a non-American book of this type.

I was really excited when I opened this book but like some others, found it lacked content. I also found it opinionated and judgemental - get off your high horse!
Also - the comment about looking for the 'red tractor' to for proof that chicken (or any meat) is free range is just plain WRONG - it means it is farmed to agreed standards - not necessarily free range, and not necessarily British.
BTW, what is a potato purl?
