 Rating:  - A cookbook that my sons useI bought this cookbook for my 14 year old twin sons, who have always enjoyed cooking alongside me, but never attempted anything on their own before. They both instantly loved this book, saw lots of things that they fancied cooking, but, unlike many other cookbooks, felt confident enough to give them a go. My sons are very dyslexic, but they found the layout easy to follow and the pictures useful. These are not groundbreaking recipes, or even the best renditions ... Read More: Rating: - My son cooks from thisI gave this to my 13-year-old son for Christmas and he has cooked various recipes from it. He is quite enthusiastic about it. The 'cool' factor of the book makes, I think, all the difference, and the fact that it's explicitly addressed to boys. The recipes are fairly traditional -- which is fine for those boys who are less adventurous. Highly recommended. Rating:  - Some good ideas, but....Okay, this book has great recipes and great results. It is easy to compehend and understand and it is doing very well for itself.

And boy am I glad I did! They have spent the last few weeks trying out loads of recipes from the book, from full-on family meals to cakes, biscuits and smoothies. Not only has it kept them entertained for hours, but they are now confident in the kitchen. And most of the recipes are healthy as well (with the odd nice treat) so it's guilt-free. I heard that Sam Stern ... Read More: Rating: - Excellent book - but this is the US versionWhen we first purchased the UK version of this book it inspired my teenage son to start cooking. The book was so well used that I ordered a replacement last week and unfortunately Amazon only now supply the US version, which gives everything in cup sizes rather than metric and has translated many food items which confuse UK kids (eg Zuchini rather than Courgettes). Buy the book - it's excellent, but search for the UK version if you live in the UK, don't take this (cheaper) US substitute |
