Classic Conran

More about the book

In the style-setting tradition that is a Conran trademark, this award-winning cookbook could start a new trend in the way people think about food. Cooking today has become too complex, say the Conrans, and they demonstrate convincingly that the best dishes are in fact perfectly simple—and simple to prepare. With a lavish collection of timeless classics, including such favorites as Soupe a l’Oignon, Steak au Poivre, and Summer Pudding, they stress the principle that the quality of the ingredients comes first, and the secret of preparing each dish to perfection is to concentrate on bringing out those ingredients’ natural flavors. The result is a collection of mouthwatering recipes that cooks will return to again and again.
