Jamie Oliver thinks it is time for a food revolution. We need to counter our love affair with microwaves, frozen food and takeout. Too many of us have lost the art of passing recipes down from one generation to another, of family dinners and a slower lifestyle. Food Revolution couples lush 4/color photographs with clear instructions to show a novice cook exactly how to master--and savor--all the essentials.
In a fun twist--new to FOOD Food Revolution--Jamie asks readers to get personally involved by taking the "pass it on" pledge to learn and teach a recipe to two other people, and even includes a pledge page for the reader to fill in. This way, readers are able to return to a simpler time when they could enjoy their food and share that enjoyment with their family and friends. Jamie has included recipes that people who don't or can't cook told him would inspire them to give it a try, from Twenty-Minute Meals to Comforting Stews: Griddle Lamb Chops with Chunky Salsa, Baked French Potatoes, Best Ever French Beans, A Cracking Burger, Aloo Gobhi--and more!
The Food Network airs Jamie's television shows, and Food Revolution will undoubtedly be another blockbuster for the growing Jamie Oliver empire.
This book does just what it says - guide people into cooking great food. You'll find some excellent versions of home favorites like burgers, spaghetti, etc. But I was also pleased to find Thai and other ethnic dishes in here. I especially like the page on making different curry pastes. I rate myself as an intermediate cook and think this book will add a lot to my culinary arsenal. It will do wonders for beginners and the pictures help a lot.
