"Food for real people." -- Irish Examiner In Favorite Food at Home, Ireland's favorite chef, Rachel Allen, "the Irish cooking queen" (BBC), provides inspirational, easy-to-follow recipes for delicious, comforting, soul satisfying meals you can prepare and enjoy at home with family and friends. A teacher at the famed cooking school at Ballymaloe--the Emerald Isle's answer to Nigella Lawson--Allen has already been featured in Food & Wine, on Today, and The Martha Stewart radio show, and Favorite Food at Home will likely make her a household name in America as well.
What a nice book of food for the family. This is a bit of a personal quest for me, as I have a couple of picky eaters in our house. Her food is hearty when it needs to be, light when you want light, and seems to have passed muster with most of the kids. She's a good cook, rather than a chef, and I find that makes all the difference in how doable and 'eatable' the recipes are. I picked this up before I knew that she has a show on TV, and it stands alone nicely. More than can be said for some other tv cookbooks I've bought.
