These were one of the most complicated desserts I have ever made, with 4 elements and requiring 4 new ingredients I had never worked with before (glucose, citric acid, pectin jaune and mandarin puree). But they were so worth it (and I learned a lot in the process). Not being a professional chef I could not find pectin jaune or mandarin puree in small sizes but Pomona pectin and tangerine juice worked just as well. I did the traditional Jaffa cake hatch on top rather than brushing with glitter. They were a wonderful combo of sweet crisp/gooey macaron, tart orange jelly, rich orange chocolate ganache and crisp chocolate topping. People at the party I served them at said they were Jaffa cakes x 100. Very satisfying project.

These were fun. Very easy to make and great result. I love the combination of the short cookie and tart rhubarb frosting. I made the frosting a couple of days ahead and found the consistency perfect for spreading. It doesn’t like being out in a warm room so bear in mind if making these for a party. I baked them for just 20 mins at 325 F (170 C) - they were perfect. 25 mins as stated in the recipe would be too much.

We really enjoyed this, but I'd echo VineTomato's comment that it was too much oil with the oil-roasted tomato version. We also used cherry tomatoes, though, so it could be that? I'd cut it down to 1/4 to 1/2 cup next time (not 1.5 cups!). Other than that, no changes. It seemed more of a "wintery" flavor, though, than a fresh summer one, with all of the umami bomb ingredients, so I would save this for making those anemic winter tomatoes shine. We'll definitely make it again, however.

A sweeter, light textured, and minimal corn meal taste variation of cornbread. Reduced the sugar to 1/3 cup and it was pleasantly sweet. The full amount would have been too much for our taste. The texture is more corn cake than cornbread due to small amount of corn meal relative to flour. Mine was done 7 min before the time specified. Served with bbq pork ribs, baked beans, coleslaw and sliced pineapple.

Fun cake to bring to a graduation party! I only did 2 layers because I got nervous about cutting it into 3, but I don’t think it really mattered. Delicious and very chocolaey.

Great summer fare, light, refreshing with minimal preparation. I halved the amount of shrimp, intending to make only half of the recipe. However, my mind was elsewhere when I started prepping the veggies for the salad and chopped the amount for a whole recipe. Luckily, I caught myself before adding the shrimp, the avocado (my own addition) and the lime juice, so I simply saved half of the chopped veggie for another round tomorrow with pacific rock fish rather than shrimp.

Didn't have refried beans on hand, so just used a tin of black beans. Absolutely delicious and feeds a crowd!

Pretty yummy except that I made the mistake of cooking the squash in way more than 1/2 cup of water. I got a little confused and was worried about it drying out--so my whole casserole wound up being very wet. It was still good though.

I think 250gm of pappardelle for 2 people was a bit much. Next time I will reduce that to 200gm leaving all other quantities the same. I toasted the breadcrumbs before cooking the mushrooms & I cooked the broccolini (that's what we have here in Australia) in the pasta so the number of pots used wasn't excessive.

Made for the second time for Father’s Day. Rich, but not heavy. Very nice.

Agreed. This is delicious, but soupy. I omitted the cauliflower, added chopped sweet potato, served over cauliflower rice. Comfort food.

Very yummy, also enjoyed it without the egg too, may add some bread or something to soften the burger part next time since we like our burgers well done.

Interesting alternate method of cooking steak. At 20 minutes in oven my one and a half inch thick steaks were well beyond 105 degrees but searing and then resting them for 15 minutes helped create a nice crust and restored the juiciness. Very good with the beer reduction sauce and crumbled blue cheese ( not in this cookbook) I used to finish and serve.

Absolutely delicious, best new pie recipe I've tried this year, will definitely make it again. Used only half to two thirds of the crumble - I like less & liked to see the berries peeking through.

This is not an attractive steak...The steak was well-cooked if you want a rare steak. It was also too salty.

An interview with the author.

This steak was incredible. The overnight dry-brine made for well-seasoned steak. The slow roast ensured the meat stayed tender and cooked evenly throughout.

It goes down in history as the only casserole my husband actually loves and asks for. I can make it for parties, I can make it for potlucks...

The book teaches you professional techniques, as promised, then gives ways to turn the “master recipes” (like Pain au lait and Pâte sucrée) into a variety of desserts.
