Great!

I am not sure I need any other cookbook, I have so many. But this Delia Smith's complete cookery book contains practical and delicious recipes. It covers so much, from the basics and up. And Delia Smith makes the best roast potatoes :) She might not have the media popularity of some of the other TV chef personalities, but she can sure cook and teach. This is a great cookery book for any kitchen.

Classic indeed

I got a used copy a couple days ago, and I'm really excited to read it. She explains in great detail the things an aspiring chef should know. And she demonstrates with recipes.
