    Roaming, Romance and Relish
  

*by E***L on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 24 August 2022*

...the three 'R's in one gorgeous book!A friend unashamedly showed me her copy, knowing how susceptible I am to a beautiful cook-book....of course, I fell  'book, lime and Singha ( Thai beer)  and ordered my own copy the next day.If anyone has read another of my reviews, they will know how much I value the look of a book, as well as the content and wallow in the entire package....plus they look beautiful on my shelves or coffee table. This book of Eleanor's is no exception. It is colourful, with gorgeous photography and the cover is divine.The content offers the reader a magical adventure ; transports you  to an ancient age of dangerous, daring overland and overseas travel...mixing  copious amounts of information on spices, food, lifestyles of the mega-wealthy with their opulent lifestyles across  Asia.The recipes cover various cultures and countries and are do-able, as Eleanor states that she has well-tested them in her London kitchen.I also have Samarkand and Fire Islands by Eleanor Ford and adore all three.These are books to  wallow in,  to lose yourself , for some well-earned escapism in these troubled times...and of course, they offer wonderful recipes  to  tempt and tantalise those taste-buds.Enjoy the journey and spice up your life!

    What a wonderful book
  

*by A***R on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 25 July 2022*

A treasure trove of delicious recipes. Eleanor Ford does it again with this sumptuous book, taking you through the history of spices and showing you how to cook delicious dishes with them. It’s the most used recipe book in our kitchen, and that says a lot! Simply wonderful.

    This book is a revelation!
  

*by M***S on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 26 June 2022*

I love cooking with spice but this book was a revelation! It tells you so much about spices and their origins, as well as their uses and contributions to dishes. We have had so many good dishes from this book, the recipes are characterised by  simple process but great depth of flavour. I also like the suggestions on recipes for accompaniments and complimentary sides. The rewards of the recipes outweigh the effort needed in my experience. I don't think I have ever cooked so many dishes from a single recipe book so I have just taken delivery of Eleanor's first book Fire Island, it looks just as exciting!
