Eggs by Michel Roux



I get lots of cookbooks out from the library.  But very rarely do I come across one written by a famous chef that is actually beautifully designed, easy to follow and gloriously photographed.

So I can recommend Eggs to you.  The book gives you some basic info on eggs as well as dealing with egg recipes under 13 headings – Boiled, Poached, Fried, Scrambled, Baked, Omelettes, Souffles, Crepes, Pastries & Pasta, Custards, Ice Creams, Meringues and Sauces.

He has done at least 2 other similar books – one on cheeses and one on sauces – I am waiting on them from the library.

Recipes that I am going to try include – Mollet eggs in tomato nests with crunchy cucumber (p28), Crunchy Fried Eggs (p74), Scrambled Eggs (p84), Scrambled Eggs Masala  (p99), Crepes (p154) and Mornay Sauce (p282).

    Wow, cookbooks are books I rarely think about reviewing online, so it is wonderful to read a review about a well written cookbook... Especially a cookbook review on a popular dish people consume regularly.
