 Rating: - Owning an AGA really does become a way of life .......'`Owning an AGA really does become a way of life - it is a trusted friend in the kitchen. I adore cooking with my AGA and wouldn't dream of having anything else.' In this book, `Amy shares the essential secrets for getting the best out of your AGA. Starting with all the information you need to use your AGA, `AGA Cooking' shows you just how simple it is to cook with it and how to adapt recipes originally devised for conventional cooking. Packed with ideas and hints, tips and techniques, `AGA Cooking' is the book no AGA owner should be without.' Where old favourites such as `toad-in-the-hole' and `shepherd's pie' meet the lesser well known `crab spring rolls with lemon oil' and `baked pumpkin with cream and gruyere cheese', this book has 192 high quality, shiny pages split over 12 main chapters, sandwiched between the 14 page introduction and a concise index:- Breakfast and brunch Soups and starters Family foods Chicken and game Meat Fish and seafood Vegetables Puddings Baking Christmas entertaining Mummy's little helpers On the side The introduction section has a brief history of AGA cooking - `How it All Began', in 1922, plus `AGA Know-How' including the various ovens:- The Roasting Oven The Simmering Oven The Warming Oven Cookware for your AGA Cleaning/caring/servicing AGA IRONING (!) Converting recipes e.g. for a 2 oven AGA or a 4-oven AGA and AGA A.A.G. (At A Glance) Each recipe is well laid out with clear ingredients list and method, with useful notes re `conventional cooking' modification. Full colour, double-page spreads open each chapter, but, generally, the book is perhaps a little light on photography. Having said that, the dishes which are pictured are simply mouth-watering, e.g. the 'Oven-roasted Spare Ribs', on page 87 or the `Sephardic Orange Cake', on page 145! Other recipes include:- AGA porridge Banana and walnut muffins Roasted garlic and onion soup Rouille Grilled tiger prawn and fennel salad Old fashioned meatloaf Crispy duck pancakes with plum sauce Braised beef Balsamic pork roast Roast potatoes Glazed ham for a crowd Christmas pudding snow-drift AGA-toasted cheese sandwich Pigs in blankets School fete cake Apple Cake Seville orange marmalade Glazed passion fruit tart and a superb recipe for Tarte Tatin and if you are looking for a good excuse to buy a 'Tarte Tatin dish, `Le Creuset' make a cast iron favourite, in a variety of colours, and on free delivery, at Amazon, today! Rating: - Easy modern recipesFor a new owner, this book really helped me to understand how to translate conventional recipes into Aga/Rayburn recipes. The results have been delicious, especially the roasted vine tomato soup, balsamic pork and chocolate brownies. A word of warning, leave out the shot of espresso if you plan to eat the brownies before bedtime!  Try searching the Internet for "Aga Cooking" or Ebay for "Aga Cooking".
