Product Description:
"Good cooking depends on two things: common sense and good taste."
In England, no food writer’s star shines brighter than Simon Hopkinson’s, whose breakthrough Roast Chicken and Other Stories was voted the most useful cookbook ever by a panel of chefs, food writers, and consumers. At last, American cooks can enjoy endearing stories from the highly acclaimed food writer and his simple yet elegant recipes.
In this richly satisfying culinary narrative, Hopkinson shares his unique philosophy on the limitless possibilities of cooking. With its friendly tone backed by the author’s impeccable expertise, this cookbook can help anyone -- from the novice cook to the experienced chef -- prepare down-right delicious cuisine . . . and enjoy every minute of it!
Irresistible recipes in this book include:
- Eggs Florentine
- Chocolate Tart
- Poached Salmon with Beurre Blanc
- And, of course, the book’s namesake recipe, Roast Chicken
Winner of both the 1994 André Simon and 1995 Glenfiddich awards (the gastronomic world’s equivalent to an Oscar), this acclaimed book will inspire anyone who enjoys sharing the ideas of a truly creative cook and delights in getting the best out of good ingredients.

I love to cook and try new things. I've learned Indian cooking through cookbooks...good thing. Although I love the layout and concept of the book...if I didn't know better there would have been no onions in my curry! "Mrs. Pringle's Kofta Curry" is delicious. However, there are no instructions about adding back those deliciously browned onions and garlic to the pan. Editing is everything in cookbooks. Careful please!

Any one who loves to cook and eat will enjoy this charming, useful, and even -- culinarily speaking -- inspiring book.

Simon Hopkinson is a venerable English chef and newspaper columnist who enjoys pushing for simple, home-y food. This cookbook, originally published in London in 1994, is a small but useful collection of Hopkinson's favorite recipes, along with personal stories and asides to accompany each one.
My husband is a retired chef and his most basic meals are my favorites. Not that I don't love the rolled and stuffed game hens or the complex patés, but nothing compares to his beef lentil soup ... Read More

I read an article about this book and thought it was a novel; only when I ordered and received did I realize it was cookbook ( I am kinda slow ); however, wonderful and all encompassing cookbook which covers a tremendous range of foods with easily understood instructions; who would have thought what a cup of red wine vinegar would do to a stewing chicknen!

I was very disappointed in this cookbook. I liked the idea of a cookbook with a few recipes for each ingrediant, but these recipes are almost all made with tons of butter, cream etc. I already know how to make anything delicious with those ingrediants!
