Delia's How To Cook: Book One: Bk.1

The first title in a two-part series in which Delia Smith presents a simple-to-follow cookery course for people of all ages and abilities. Returning to the very basics of cooking, and looking at the techniques and staple ingredients which underline the best traditions of British cookery, she has re-examined them and adapted them in a contemporary light. Here, she looks at rice, flour, potatoes, pasta and eggs, and removes the mystique from both simple and advanced recipes. The book ties-in with a ten-part series to be broadcast on BBC2 from October. A huge advertising campaign will be targeted through the national press and magazines.
