Great book for humble food with plenty of flavour This is a fantastic little book if you want ideas for rustic and seasonal foods. The complaints about not having certain recipes that were in the programme is kinda silly. If you were just interested in 2 recipes why buy the whole book?
If you like to friends coming over for a nice pot of something or to impress somebody with a lovely duck breast, this book is worth purchasing. The recipes are not complicated, although there are certain aspects you must follow to achieve the climax you want.
Left wanting [[ASIN:1845334507 "What to Eat Now"]

Huge Disappointment I strongly agree with the last review. After watching all of those wonderful dishes being so passionatly put together each week I was most upset to discover such a high number of them NOT included in the book. Valentine HAS included some of his own charming illustrations but I wasnt in the market for an art book! Inspirational TV but, sorry Val, I had to sent your book back!
