As soon as you dip into this comprehensive cookery book from Australian restaurateur, Stephanie Alexander, you’ll understand why it has established itself as the kitchen ‘bible’ on that continent in the past decade.
Stephanie believes that eating well should be a joy, not a worry, and her book is designed to be used everyday, by everyone, regardless of culinary experience or skill. She learned her skills at her mother’s side and writes as if you were at her side as she selects ingredients, mixes, bakes, laughs, tastes and revels in the heady world of great food.
Over one thousand pages offer nearly as many failsafe recipes for everything from apple tart to zuccini soufflé, while at-a-glance panels offer wise advice and show which foods go best together. A delicious addition to any cook’s kitchen shelf.

Stephanie Alexander is regarded as one of Australia's great food educators, and she is well-known in the UK and around the world. Her reputation has been earned through 30 years as an owner-chef in several restaurants, as the author of 14 influential books and for her groundbreaking work in creating the Stephanie Alexander Garden Foundation. Everything she has achieved and worked towards has been driven by her desire to break down anxieties about cooking, to emphasise the beauty of produce fresh from the garden and to promote the pleasures of sharing around a table. Her fifth book, The Cook's Companion, is regarded as an Australian classic, and has sold over 500,000 copies worldwide.
