Industry Reviews "I suspect you could cook from this volume, and this volume alone, for several years without boredom or mishap. By the end, you'll have picked up a great deal of the knowledge and understanding that are as important in the kitchen, Hopkinson argues, as the best ingredients: 'Whereas an ignorant or uncaring chef can ruin the finest free-range chicken, a sympathetic and enthusiastic cook can work wonders, even with an old boiling fowl.'"

"Hopkinson's recipes are true winner, inspiring confidence in the kitchen and pleasure at the table with their simple, satisfying flavors." (06/18/2007)
