I liked this book because it has got simple and step-by-step instructions with basic ingredients that you can not find in most of other cookery books. Highly recommended.

3.Raymond Blanc: Le Manoir by: Raymond Blanc October 11, 1990
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £25.00 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £16.25 You Save: £8.75 (35%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £11.99
This book is indeed very special, however you will need to know how to follow complex recipes, and a very good understanding of cooking, this is not a book for the faint hearted as the recipes are long, and at times complex but if you want the wow factor at the end of a dinner partie then this is most definately the book for you. Very pleased with my purchase but need a spare few hours to really get into it.

4.Cooking for Friends by: Raymond Blanc September 23, 1991
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: £6.30
First of all remember that Ray White isn't Delia, he quite rightly assumes you know how to boil water without burning it and that you don't start planning a dinner party based on whats in the fridge. Secondly, read the recipes all the way through, especially the instructions, he has a nasty habit of throwing in the odd "place in fridge for 24 hours" about half way down in the third paragraph, not much good when your guests have already hit the road. And finally - enjoy it, yes it can be complicated, long winded and require some stretching of the old "cullinary skills" but the results are divine (often on the first attempt too!). Very few ever have the chance, or budget, to have RB cook for them, this is the next best thing and guaranteed to win brownie points ... Read More:

5.Blanc Vite: Fast Fresh Food from Raymond Blanc by: Raymond Blanc June 29, 2000
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: £32.97
Raymond deserves respect for taking an enlightened approach to both diet and vegetarian cookery. The introduction has a really interesting discussion of diet that probably contains more useful information than most diet books - e.g. why are french people thinner despite eating more fat? Answer: All the 'fat' nations consume a lot of sugar. Sounds like 'low-GI' before the term was popularised. The recipes are all simple with a real clarity of flavour.

7.Raymond Blanc's Foolproof French Cookery by: Raymond Blanc September 12, 2002
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: £19.00
This book is one of a series of "foolproof" cookery guides, and it reads like it. Nice pictures and instructions making great classic French recipes fairly easy to follow. But at times it feels a little like it has been written to spec. The cookbooks that inspire me, that I constantly refer back to, are ones which have an indefinable passion to them. Although it's obvious from this book that Raymond Blanc loves his food, it feels a little like he's writing the book just because he's been contracted to, not because he has an uncontrollable urge to teach the world about great cooking. The description above probably sounds a little over-negative. There is nothing inherently wrong with this book, it just doesn't set me on fire. It would probably be best to ... Read More:

8.Cooking in Ten Minutes: Or the Adaptation of Cooking to the Rhythm of Our Time by: Edouard De Pomiane September 02, 1993
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: £4.97
I am training myself in the dark art of cookery, given that my family will shortly be leaving the country for a little while. At the beginning of today, I couldn't cook to save my life. On receiving the book, I relished my visit to Tesco, and I managed to create an entrecote fillet steak dressed with sauce bearnaise and accompanied by mushrooms a la creme. For dessert, I made sauteed banana fritters with cinnamon. Total cost production: around £3. Total time of production: around 12 minutes from raw ingredients to the delicious end result. I cannot rate this book highly enough. My confidence in my ability to cook has skyrocketed from zero to hero in the space of ONE day.
