If you haven't heard of him yet, you soon will. I've tasted James's food and it's bloody good. ------Stefan Gates
James Ramsden is one of the best young food writers around. ----Giles Coren
A cook-book that combines a boy-next-door charm and lack of pretension, with an erudite wealth of culinary knowledge, an evident depth of research and recipes destined to please multiple pallets on myriad occasions, with his Small Adventures in Cooking, James Ramsden heralds an exciting new generation of cookery writing ------La Bonne Bouffe
I have a feeling that in a few years James could be a cookbook-shelf staple alongside the likes of Nigel Slater ------The Little Loaf
The real difference that sets this book apart from others is Mr. Ramsden himself and his style of writing. Quite frankly this guy gets what cooking is all about, sure we all plan some meals, but the vast majority of the time it's off the cuff stuff with a little bit of inspiration, something that this book has in spades, bravo James hopefully we'll see more of the same soon ------Dad's Cooking Tonight
On many occasions, I find myself agreeing and smiling as he has captured my many thoughts and concerns when it comes to my cooking quandaries. It has reminded me why I enjoy cooking so much and ignited a notion for discovering and using new ingredients. ------MeLikeyUK
James Ramsden is an exciting, irrepressible new voice in food. In this, James s first book, the influential food blogger and pop-up supper club host aims to get his peers out of their culinary rut and experimenting with recipes that are delicious, unexpected and simple. Speedy after-work suppers such as Lamb Neck Fillets with Harissa and Chickpea Salad, food for friends like Grilled Aubergine with Tahini and Pomegranate and delicious slow-cooked dishes such as Pork Belly with Cider and Lentils are all fuss-free and achievable for cooks of any ambition. Nothing here is frightening, laborious, or expensive but everything is different enough to introduce some excitement into the kitchen. Because James believes that cooking is most enjoyable when imbued with a sense of adventure and exploration. Not the crossing continents or eating insects kind, but the sort of small change that will help hoist your food beyond the everyday - the use of an unusual spice in a dish, a trip to the butchers for an interesting cut of meat or the conjuring of something remarkable from the contents of the cornershop. In this book James invites you to join him on his culinary adventure with fast feasts, swanky suppers, lazy lunches and late-night munchies that will make every meal a mini-voyage of discovery. Each recipe is marked with a hashtag so that Twitter users can offer tweaks and tips to other readers.
