And as you learn how to cook, the book shows you how to serve every dish in a combination that builds up to an original meal - for entertaining or everyday eating.
The book also offers vital advice on how to buy the best ingredients: the finest meat and poultry, fish, vegetables, fruit, dairy products and herbs, so that you are halfway to providing a memorable meal before lighting the stove. And in addition to the 350 recipes in the book, eight famous cooks describe how they plan menus for special occasions, ranging from a bonfire-night party to a wedding lunch.
