1.1080 Recipes by: Simone Ortega, Ines Ortega October 01, 2007

I bought this book after reading a review in one of the Sunday papers. It is a gem. It presents the authentic face of modern Spanish cooking and it's influences, as well as a comprehensive selection of older classics. In addition, in this English edition, it takes time to explain terms and techniques that you might not be familiar with. It makes a great present in that not only is it beautifully written, but also features some great illustrations. Above all, it contains recipes that are "do - able". Think not of Roux/Ramsey/Blanc, but more Delia Smith and above all Nigel Slater. Overall, a superb introduction to Spanish cooking presented in a stylish way, which I cannot find fault with.

This must be for people who have already eaten at Moro or in Andalusia - despite being a good cook I cannot make these recipes taste good. There are far better (but less trendy) Spanish/Moroccan books by any of the following food writers (as opposed to chefs-of-the-moment): Elizabeth Luard, Penelope Casas, Paula Wolfert; all keepers, unlike this one! In its favour, the reference section is reasonably helpful & the pics are intermittently charming. The paper stock stains & dissolves very easily - not great for a bone fide cook book, eh?

I'm originally from Granada. Can't remeber the times I've been my self at Las Alpujarras. The book it's beautifully written an the recipies are not adapted to the american or north-european taste. If you want really Spanish or Meditrranean food this is one of the best books you might ever have. Might be also tru you find it difficult to find som ingredients. I feel free to change them. Just try to keep with the sort of fish or meat indicated in the recipe (meaning white fish for white fish, rock fish for rock fish, lam for lamb, and so on). This review should also apply to the book nr. 1, though here pictures are better in my opinion. As I recognise the book nr. 1 is also a 5 stars I wish I could give this one a 6 stars! Congratulations ... Read More:

Nice introduction with simple rules for always making an excellent paella (I actually broke most of them until reading this book) I also liked the fact that all the ingredients in the recipes were easy to find.

Sometimes what seems simplest is really the best of all. Clear, beautiful writing, simple, delicious food, quiet time with those you love, the home of your soul. This book offers all of those things, and the great pleasure of reading as well. This is one of my favorite books, and I highly recommend it. Even if you've never been to Majorca.
