"The Real Food Handbook" is a thoroughly
useful guide to quality produce, and will be of great benefit in helping the
inexperienced or intimidated cook or shopper choose wisely and well. It
provides a down-to-earth, no-nonsense description of the proliferating variety
of foodstuffs to be had from today's supermarkets and specialist food shops.
Covering fresh and cured meats, fish, dairy produce, vegetables, fruits and
nuts, grains and pulses, pasta, herbs, spices, sauces, pastes and a host of
other ingredients both familiar and exotic, it offers basic information that
will not only help you to know what to buy, why and when, but give you an idea
of what you might do with it when you get it home. This is a very friendly book
that invites prolonged browsing. |
