A celebration of simple home cooking
Simon Hopkinson is a venerable English chef and newspaper columnist who enjoys pushing for simple, home-y food. This cookbook, originally published in London in 1994, is a small but useful collection of Hopkinson's favorite recipes, along with personal stories and asides to accompany each one. My husband is a retired chef and his most basic meals are my favorites. Not that I don't love the ...

Love Them Bananas!
This book is awesome! I love this series. I was terribly disappointed that the videos have gone into the archives. I have been searching for copies from any of the tv series. This is a clever duo of bananas and the book is very easy to follow. The characters are 3-dimensional and very lively. I enjoy reading it to my son who is 8 and he loves to read it aloud too.

This IS the Essential Cook Book
This would be the PERFECT gift for a friend who likes to cook. It's a great reference on ingredients, explaining the difference between similar foods, when to use what, what can be used as a substitute... The pictures are terrific, the recipes I've tried are excellent, and most not too complicated to try for the first time on a weeknight. It's a great book if you like to READ cook books. ...

An Encyclopedia of Food
I had the first (1980) edition of this book, but I lost that copy. I found this one a few years ago and continue to be amazed at the clarity and simplicity of the explanations of everything from details of different vegetables and fishes to how to use kitchen equipment. The recipes in the second half of the book are excellent. They are not the hautest of haute cuisine, but they enable an ...

Superb book of recipes and reminiscences
Like Mr. Hopkinson, I am Bury born and bred. My mother shopped at the same tripe shop as his grandmother; I celebrated my 21st birthday at M. Chambas' restaurant ("The Normandy", Mr. Hopkinson - you'd have been laughed out of town on a rail in the 60's if you'd referred to it in Bury as "La Normandie"!)where he later cut his teeth - my mother, who taught at an hotel school, drove my father, who ...

The Prawn Cocktail Years
Simon Hopkinson

Penguin Global, 2008

While Lindsey Bareham was helping Simon Hopkinson put together his best-selling book, "Roast Chicken and Other Stories", the two of them began to reminisce about hotel and restaurant dishes they had grown up with and always loved; those Cinderellas of the kitchen that we abandoned in our quest for the wilder shores of gastronomy. Classics such as Duck a l'Orange, Weiner Schnitzel, Moussaka, Garlic Mushrooms and, of course, Prawn Cocktail, have ...
