3.		English Bread and Yeast Cookery (Cookery Library) from Penguin Price: £7.49 Customer Review: If you bake bread, or intend doing so, this book is definately worth buying. No, it isn't full of pretty pictures . . . what it is packed with though is everything you will ever need to know about bread. It is a history book, a recipe book, an advice book . . . and more. After reading the book and... more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

4.		Italian Food from Penguin Price: £6.74 Customer Review: What I found most interesting about this book was not so much the recipes, but more what it revealed about the conditions and attitudes to food of the post-war years, when this was first published.

6.		Elizabeth David's Christmas from Michael Joseph Price: £9.74 Customer Review: I cannot praise this lovely book too highly. It has all the David magic - exquisite prose, trenchant opinions and luscious recipes: some are of academic interest but nonetheless fascinating; most are dishes of simplicity but also subtlety and finesse. The closing essay 'Para Navidad' is perhaps one... more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

7.		Is There a Nutmeg in the House? (Penguin Cookery Library) from Penguin Price: £6.49 Customer Review: I was just browsing in my local bookshop under the "Cooking-category". I came across Elizabeth DAVID's 'IS THERE A NUTMEG IN THE HOUSE" by accident. I bought the book straight away, and I can't put down the book. I had tried Pastenak (pasnips) and cress cream soup.

8.		French Country Cooking (Cookery Library) from Penguin Price: £5.99 Customer Review: As with all of Elizabeth David's books, this is not a list of weights and measures, but of ingredients and expected results. This is not a book for kids in a hurry, as you need to read it as a gastronomic autobiography first, and then go back and try the recipes. In style it has the prose... more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

9.		Spices, Salt and Aromatics in the English Kitchen from Grub Street Price: £8.44 Customer Review: If I was asked, what cookery book would you take on a desert island? -- it would be this one! My paperback copy, now a good 30 years old, is yellow and falling to pieces, but I wouldn't part with it. Every recipe is a revelation, not just good cooking, but cooking to die for! I really must get one... more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information
