5.0 out of 5 stars I'm surprised no one else has reviewed this book, December 16, 2006

By	I Love to Cook (New York, NY) - See all my reviews

especially in light of the overshelming popularity of other British "cookery" writers like Nigella, Jamie, Nigel - all of whom only need to be identified by their first names. Anyone who likes them should immediately become familiar with Delia Smith. She might not be as glamerous or as much "fun" to read, but she is definitely as much fun to cook with, and her food is delicious, her writing is clear, her recipes are well-written and very easy to follow guaranteeing excellent results. This book is a good place to start getting to know Delia!

This is one of the best cook books I own. There are so many flavorful, interesting recipies using healthy ingredients in unique ways. Everything I have made has been a hit.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of my Favorites, November 30, 2009

By	Mary J. Patrick "mjenn" (athens, ga) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I recently lost my copy of this cookbook, and immediately ordered another. The soup recipes alone make this book worth owning, and Delia does a fabulous job of giving clear and easy to follow instructions. A must for anyone who loves cooking.
