Many of like cooking but never have much time for it. Helen Fry"s new book Quick Cooking has been
specially written for busy people. It has over 1,000 recipes, from the famous Spanish gazpacho to Swedish
smorgasbord. The book is well written and the photographs and drawings are clear. (They are like those in
the excellent little Quick Dressmaking and Quick Gardening.) The book has a strong plastic cover. It is easy
to find your way around it too. And busy people, notice this, Mrs. Fry tells you how much time you need in
order to get each dish ready.
Quick Cooking has four parts, one for each season. This helps you to use fresh fruit and vegetable when
they are cheaper-and, of course, better. There are a lot of exciting ideas from foreign countries, and most of
the recipes are easy to follow. You take something simple like a chicken or some cheese, and make an unusual
dish out of it. For example, there are no fewer than 40 recipes for eggs! Mrs. Fry does not plan complete
meals for the "quick book". The beginners will have to find out a lot of things for himself or herself. But this
ought to be difficult with such a good book. I wanted to try many of the recipes as soon as I read them. For
people with little spare time, Helen Fry"s Quick Cooking is excellent value. |
