The Cook's Pocket Bible - Every Culinary Rule of Thumb at Your Fingertips (Paperback)

How often have you had to look up a recipe when you?re cooking just for a quick reminder? How long should you roast a joint of lamb for? You know how to cook a white sauce perfectly well, but what are the proportions of flour to milk? You have a coeliac for dinner ? what is it you can?t serve them? Which kind of potatoes are best for mashing? Can you eat the skin of a sharon fruit? Here are all the answers you need to the questions you?re likely to ask while you?re cooking or the guests are about to arrive, including a special section on Christmas cooking. This book is aimed at all enthusiastic cooks, particularly those who are still at the stage of phoning a friend for advice from time to time.
