I recommend this book to all my friends May 17, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I saw a recipe from this book in my Saturday newspaper magazine and gave it a go....brilliant! so I ordered the book and since then have tried most of the recipes which are so good and easy to follow. I have passed on lots of the recipes to friends who have enjoyed my cooking/baking and told them to buy the book for themselves. I'm certain no one will be sorry they bought this book and I speak as someone who has loads of cookery books, some of which turned out to be a big disappointment.
Angela Nilsen chocolate cake IS the Ultimate! September 7, 2007 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I first came across Angela Nilsens' Ultimate series in the BBC Good Food magazines, so was very interested in this cookbook. Angela has out done herself on researching and coming up with the 'ultimate' of a lot of classic/family favourites and some more modern dishes. Using tips from top chefs and experimenting with tried and tested versions of a range of dishes, to eventually present the reader with foolproof recipes that are easy to follow and bursting with taste.
The chocolate cake alone is worth the price of the book. I made enough for 200 people for a works charity event, ever since then I have had people asking me to make them a chocolate cake on a near weekly basis...it really is the best chocolate cake ever, rich and decadent! I'll be looking out for more of Angela's cookbooks as I know her recipes wont disappoint!
Interesting and informative August 13, 2007 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
Highly enjoyable as this book gives a great background to the recipe itself, and the author's attempts to find the 'ultimate' version. As the book focusses on well known and well loved dishes it's unlikely to give you any new food ideas, but will certainly help to polish off your skill at these 50 items.
It really is the ultimate!! February 20, 2007 14 out of 16 found this review helpful
I own loads of cookery books and this is definately one of the best. I have never been able to make meringues without them falling apart or drying them out too much, with this book I have made meringues that are soft and chewy on the inside and perfect on the outside. The story behind each recipe is also fascinating to read and I do hope that she does another book like this. A fantastic buy!!
Well worth buying! February 16, 2007 11 out of 15 found this review helpful
Well, how often do you buy a recipe book, and then read it cover to cover in 1 day? That's what I did with this book. Angela describes the journey she went on to get to each ultimate recipe, and I loved every minute of it! Understanding how she got there is as enjoyable as the recipe itself. The recipes are easy to understand, easy to follow, well written and described. This book is a good buy for any cook, and would make a wonderful gift.
