Warm memories of Spain

Reviewed in the United States on May 6, 2015

Amazing book and it brought back very sweet memories of the markets in Spain, particularly La Boqueria in Barcelona. I remember every aisle and foodstand, and it made me want to book another trip to Spain as soon as possible. I particularly like the typical recipes from the Catalan cuisine as every dish was always so delicious and unique. This book is perfect for anyone who loves to vacation in Spain and appreciates good cooking.

The Real Taste of Spain

Having tasted a recipe from this book at one of my favourite cafes, I rushed home to search for the book. A full Spanish meal was served to rave reviews from guests. Well presented, easy to follow recipes to match the mouth-watering photos.The mussels were a particular triumph. The serves are generous and the flavours authentic. A wonderful book.

This is a very nice book. The cover is embossed and very bright. Have only cooked one recipe, very tasty! Have had to Google a couple ingredients to figure out what they were. This book looks very smart in my cook book holder on the kitchen counter

Absolutely Outstanding; a must for every cook.

My word, how lucky was I to buy this book to add to my collection in which it now has pride of place?
If you live in Spain and cook it is essential; if you shop anywhere for fresh food it is essential and if you enjoy cooking it will give you enormous pleasure. If you shop in markets in Spain for fresh food that you are then going to cook it is biblical!
Well laid out with a preface to each section wonderfully describing the type of food in the recipes therein and where in Spain specialises in the ingredients. Each recipe is well written, easy to understand and has a picture so you know what it should look like. That in itself is recommendation enough for any collection of recipes: in this wonderful book Jenny Chandler goes further. For each recipe where a new main ingredient is introduced there is advice as to how to purchase that ingredient: how to ensure fish is fresh, which cut of meat to use and how to obtain it, how to select vegetables in prime condition; the list is endless. Each recipe also has tips on alternative ingredients and little shortcuts.
For those living in Spain there are descriptions of the specialities provided by each region and the verbal illustrations of the various markets where they can be purchased leave the reader salivating.
A really special book that promises much and delivers on those promises. If nothing else it is a wonderful, well researched guide to the local markets in Spain. It is a book that everyone deserves to own.
I really "get what the author is about" as I live in a place in Spain where the fresh catch from the fishing boats is sold to the public daily at 4.00pm, a small covered market operates daily (mainly for meat) and the weekly market, full of fresh fruit and vegetables, flavoured olives and other pickled items is a place where cheeses, pulses, charcuterie and local specialities abound.

I bought this on Kindle and was bookmarking so many recipes which the author interleaves with the evocative descriptions of the different Spanish food and markets in that I felt that I had to get a hard copy. I can't wait to do the seafood 'operetta' that contains hake, monkfish, prawns, langastines, clams, mussels, Spanish brandy, white wine, fish stock, onion, garlic, chilli, tomatoes, paprika, few saffron strands and parsley I highly recommend this book.

Authentic and Atmospheric

An authentic and easy to follow cookery book with vivid colour pictures that brings the charms, aromas and feelings of Spain into the kitchen. A great and economical present, that's if you can bear to part with it.

Printed on good quality paper, it certainly deserves a place in every household that enjoys Spanish Cookery.

Pretty book but uninspiring recipes

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on March 13, 2015

Verified Purchase

This Is a lovely looking book although the photos on the kindle edition are very small. I was looking forward to reading this book,as I love Spain and Spanish food. The idea of using market stalls as a starting point was intriguing. The writing, telling the reader about what ingredients can be found in markets in different areas of Spain was interesting but I was disappointed in the recipes themselves. I found little to inspire me, and I found most recipes to be rather simplistic, uninteresting, and frankly not particularly Spanish. Given the marvellous interesting ingredients to be found in Spain, recipes for example for a fairly basic salad recipe was not what I was hoping for. What a shame. To be fair, Jenny Chandler is a readable author, and I found her book on pulses to be more interesting and inspiring.
