Editorial Reviews

Review

Rick Stein's "Food Heroes" is not about his favourite chefs as might at first be assumed. It is about the top food producers in Britain today. His love of fresh ingredients is well-known and here he travels the length and breadth of the country in his hunt for people of like mind, people who care more about their produce than their profit. Whilst acknowledging supermarkets today offer a range of foods far more global and wide-ranging than ever dreamt of, he draws the cooks attention to ingredients fresher and better than those sold by profit-making conglomerates. Handmade cheeses, organic watercress, free-range chickens and ducks and his favourite, freshly caught fish. Stein meets the people and explains their philosophy behind what could all too easily be loss-making ventures. But such is their belief in what they do they can translate it to chefs like Stein to promote and educate the general public. Accompanied by over 100 scrumptious Stein recipes, and attractively illustrated with colour photographs, this is an ideal gift to anyone wanting to cook and taste the very best of British produce. - Lucy Watson

2.0 out of 5 stars A Rick Stein Fan, May 12, 2007
Very very disapointing, as the book does not follow any of the recipes that were shown on his television series of the same name. I purchased this book for the specific reason of being able to make some of the recipes, especially the bread pudding recipe. I found myself being very angry at being duped into the purchase, not a fair thing to do. I live abroad and had no way of knowing what was inside the book, than other it would be the recipes of the series he was doing "On Food Heroes in Britain.

5.0 out of 5 stars This is a great book!, October 19, 2008
This review is from: Rick Stein's Food Heroes (Hardcover)
I love this book and the DVD. Worth every cent to me, so was "food heros-another helping" Rick Stein is great to watch and listen to, he does so much more than the actual recipes, he gives some history and background on everything that is really interesting. Five stars from me.
