Book Reviews of In The Heat Of The Kitchen
Book Review: A great book from a top notch chef!
Summary: 4 Stars
This is one of those cook books put together by a "TV Chef" that may seem somewhere between pretentious and useful. Some of the recipes such as "Guinea Hen with Pomegranate" and "Skate with a Sherry Vinegar and Caper Sauce" may seem over the top to the average cook, but if you look closely at the other ingredients, substitutions can easily be made with fantastic results ie: chicken for Guinea Hen and cod or flounder for the Skate. Such is the brilliance of Ramsay.
Simpler recipes such as "Chicken Pot Pie", "Warm Red Mullet Salad", "Roasted Tomato Soup" and "Brazed Pork" have a sense of home cooking and traditional fare. Anyone who has ever watched his Kitchen Nightmare series will know that Chef Ramsay is all about simplicity and good old fashioned cooking. Sure he can do frou-frou, but some of the best dishes he introduces to failing chefs are cheap to make and easy to produce.
But beyond the recipes, Ramsay takes the time to show us some great little kitchen tricks such as cleaning crab, the secret to perfect lobster medallions, and how to tie a rolled pork roast. In the back of the book are invaluable recipes for sauces, dressings and stocks.
