Customer Reviews
Inspired, evocative and great fun - Rated As with her previous two books, Tessa Kiros has captured both my imagination and my taste for cooking. Apart from offering an extensive collection of original and uncomplicated recipes, this is also an enjoyable read, exuding family cosiness and joy of life. I can't wait for Tessa Kiros'next book!! Beautifully illustrated - Rated If you want a "just the facts, ma'am" type of cookbook this is not for you. However, beyond the good range of simple but inspiring recipes, it was the stories and pictures that are mixed in that really made this book for me. (NB: I didn't mind the colour-coding of the recipes as there is an alphabetical index in the back) I will definitely be adding more of Tessa Kiros in my cookbook collection. REAL Recipes . . . for Life! - Rated This really is a lovely book filled with useable, inspiring recipes. It is one of those cook books that is interesting and attractive enough for browsing through with a nice pot of coffee as well as for selecting recipies for family meals that really work! Straightforward, short ingredient lists and easy to follow instructions - I have tried 20 or so recipes and they have all turned out a success! We have discovered some new supper dishes that have become firm favourites. My only complaint is the light grey font colour - which also seems quite small - I don't usually need my specs for cooking! Maybe I should eat more carrots . . . . see the orange section! Irritating sentimental stories - Rated I had such high hopes for this book, but I find it so irritating I just can't read through it! I HATE the way the recipes are grouped by colour and I find the stories of the author's childhood memories that are peppered through the book hugely irritating! Aghh!! Apples For Jam Review - Rated This is a very pretty cookbook. There are lots of nice pictures. I was initially attracted to it for that reason. Also the recipes seemed straight forward and appealing, no fussy ingredients. I do like the book but I find the way it is organised by color a bit confusing. Additionally, the author has chosen to include many of her own children's drawings and her own memories of her childhood. These are sprinkled throughout and while they may mean something to her, they are distracting and rather sappy and overly sentimental, not a good addition in my opinion, just annoying. Overall, not bad, but I expected much more.
