A good mix of recipes (meat, vegetarian, savoury, sweet) that are very easy to follow and do not require you to buy dozens of new herbs and spices for each meal.
I am a terrible cook (my wife does the cooking) but I was looking to improve. With this book even I can make decent, wholesome and tasty meals without a problem.
First off – I am not a cook. At all. I have tried to get interested in cooking in the past but having to go and buy specific ingredients and then follow intricate recipes which take forever has always ended up with me losing interest.
But Italian cooking is simple and quick and Gino makes it fun. This book is inspiring and I look forward to being able to enjoy cooking food for myself that is actually edible.
As TV chefs go my wife and I like Gino more than there others for his easy cook recipes and his fun approach to cooking in general.
This book is based around his current TV show (or vice versa) but the recipes are really easy to follow, dont take too long or a great deal of detailed experience in the kitchen – even I can manage to create something as good as it looks in the pics!
I bought this book after watching an episode of the programme on tv. I love the recipes in this book in that they are so easy and quick, perfect for weekday or weekend.
All the ingredients are also easily found in the main supermarkets. Experienced cooks may find some of the recipes too easy but for beginners like me, I just want to be told what to do and what ingredients to put in!
Lovely book, arrived like this.
Just another addition to our cook books, always love the italian cooking.
