 A book to treasure March 13, 2008

Jamie Oliver has excelled himself in this beautiful book. It's more than just recipes and photographs of the finished dishes, I was totally immersed in Jamie's world from start to finish. As a cookery book it's first class, but it's so much more besides.

'Jamie At Home' has a great collection of recipes from the television series and is presented in an attractive and accessible way. The book is divided into the four seasons and focuses on different ingredients, from asparagus to eggs. It has growing tips for your own vegetable patch and manages to combine garden advice and cookery advice with equal skill, whilst being enjoyable to read. One thing I liked was the more natural descriptions for the recipes, instead of prescribing an exact amount of oil (for example 20ml) he just says 'two big glugs', this is reminiscent of the TV series, as well as making each recipe individual to the person cooking it. After all, that is what cooking is about, providing great food in a personal way. This book goes a long way to helping you achieve that and is a great place to find some tasty and inspiring recipes. Well worth a buy if you're a fan of the series or not.

This is a gorgeous book, Jamie is an inspiring innovative chef, and he translates this to us laymen (no matter how gifted or challenged!) very well. His passion for fresh delicious food shines from every page. And his gardening tips - whether or not he has masses of help, are very straightforward, no nonsense and work! He takes the mythology out, and helps us create amazing food, cheaply, easily and conveniently. That is wizardry. Thanks Jamie!

You can find Mr Oliver mildly, or even seriously, irritating and still get something out of this book. As with the accompanying television series, suffer the tidal wave of blokey joviality in order to experience some decent recipes.
It's instructive to read the endpapers and see the army of food stylists, recipe testers, editors, photographers, art directors, text designers, producers, gardeners and associated mates that go in to producing the whole thing.
The food is good, the rest.......

I love to cook good honest food that is not up it own behind. I use this book all the time. The food tastes good, its fun and exciting and you can find the ingredients in your garden or the local Tesco's (sorry Jamie, or Sainsbury's).
