Customer Reviews

Cooking Outside the Box
I saw this book reviewed in the Sunday Times, and ordered it for a friend. I had to keep it. When I began to leaf through the recipes, I felt a strong urge to dust off the cooker & try some of the suggestions. Its full of original recipes, which have so far been fool-proof. I highly recommend this book, as a gift and a treat.

Refreshing addition to kitchen shelves
Brilliantly written with great recipes. Not only is the book full of great ideas but it's also a fun read for those with a sense of humour. Abel & Cole rightly deserve to be the frontrunners of the organic home delivery movement if Mr. Abel's creativity and passion for the product is anything to go by.

Fab... more please
Brilliant cookbook, [...] totally devoid of ponciness. If you are of the 'shove a glug of x into a dollop of y' school of cooking you will LOVE this book. [...]

I can only echo the cries of 'more please'
