Thane Prince's Simply Good Food Book

Thane Prince, for many years the Telegraph's Weekend Cook, is the author of The "Daily Telegraph" Book of Breads, Cakes and Puddings and Quick Cook. Best known for her love of fresh seasonal food and for dishes that are quick to prepare, she has gathered together more than 300 of her favourite recipes for this fat volume. The book is comprehensively divided into sauces, stocks and preserves; soups, starters and Hors d'Oeuvres; cheese and eggs; fish and shellfish; poultry; butcher's meat; game; pasta and rice; vegetables; salads; vegetarian; puddings; and bread, cakes and biscuits. Whether they are classics like Ceviche or contemporary dishes like Summer Beets With Orange Dressing, Prince gives them a modern spin. Like Nigel Slater, her recipes are for "real" food--simple ingredients, easy to cook and good for informal parties.Read More
