About me: I've been cooking for over thirty years, and I can remember the days before EVO, couscous and (ghasp!) microwaves. My cookbook collection reflects this personal and national gastronomic history. My own cooking has actually got simpler over the years, and I can do much of my repertoire without looking at a recipe. But I still love collecting cookbooks, although these days I'm a bit over food porn with great big colour photos - I really prefer food writing to recipes.

Favorite cookbook: The Cook's Companion

Pear & Chocolate Crumble from The Really Useful Cookbook

Next time I'll halve the quantity of chocolate chips in the topping. I accidentally omitted the brown sugar that's mixed with the pears and lemon juice, but the topping was so sweet it wasn't missed. read more >
