Christmas Made Easy - edited by Mary Cadogan - Good Food Magazine and BBC Books
The Good Food Team and their favourite celebrity chefs have been planning and cooking Christmas for their readers for fifteen very successful years. This book, which represents amazingly good value ... for the paperback, is the culmination of all that experience and the definitive guide to seasonal cooking and entertaining over this most important time of the year. Full of tips and secrets to ensure that every dish is a rip-roaring success, the cook will be relaxed in the knowledge that all the dishes are practical and easy to follow. Time is of short supply during the festive season so the book shows the reader what can be done ahead, what can be frozen and how to cheat successfully when the chips are down. Readers will find over 80 festive recipes, all photographed, and features also include the complete Christmas day feast with timeplan, and guest contributions from all the top chefs.

Good Food No Fuss by Anne Willan - Good Food Magazine and BBC Books
In Good Food: No Fuss, Anne Willan presents 150 recipes and ideas for tasty, easy-to-cook dishes; many taken from her monthly features in Good Food Magazine. All are short and simple, most take no more than half an hour to prepare and use a maximum of 6 easy-to-find ingredients. (Source: BBC books 11 December 2005)
The book is divided into eight chapters, including one-pot meals, no-cook suppers and salads, fast finishes and happy endings. As well as recipes, each chapter includes tips and imaginative ideas for variations. Some chapters feature more ambitious recipes, with savoury and dessert dishes for parties. Anne also includes familiar ideas with a more unusual twist - such as roast cod with tropical fruit salsa and Moroccan crown roast of turkey - but the emphasis is very much on simple good food. Illustrated with photographs from some of the UK's top food photographers, "Good Food: No Fuss" proves that it's possible to save time in the kitchen without compromising on quality and flavour.

Good Food for Friends - Good Food Magazine and BBC Books
When having friends over for a meal, people usually like to try new recipes and, of course, want something that's original and up-to-the-minute, but more importantly need to be sure that these recipes are practical – i.e. that they have been carefully tested and so are guaranteed to work, and that as much as possible they can do all the work ahead, so they'll be able to spend more time with their guests. All the 100 plus recipes in Good Food for Friends have been devised and tested to deliver in exactly these ways.
The book is divided into chapters on Soups, Starters, Lunches & Light Meals, Fish & Seafood Main Courses, Poultry & Game Main Courses, Meat Main Courses, Vegetables & Salads and Desserts. Each chapter also contains at least one masterclass, examining in detail an important and representative recipe, such as the Parmesan Soufflés with Almond and Anchovy Sauce in Lunches & Light Meals, complete with useful step-by-step photographic sequences. There are also regular features on important areas and techniques, like the buying and choosing of fish, garnishing, roasting and casseroling, and making important basics like perfect mashed potato and custard.
All the recipes have helpful symbols indicating preparation time, whether or not the dish can be frozen, its degree of difficulty and if it is possible to scale it up for larger groups. Throughout there are also lots of hints and tips on shortcuts and ingredients, as well as guidance on appropriate equipment, where necessary, and generic wine notes for each dish.
The book finishes with a section providing advice on planning dinner parties, complete with the golden rules of menu planning and some suggested menus to suit various situations built on the recipes in the book. So with Good Food for Friends readers will be able to make sure that they enjoy the event - and the food - as much as their friends are sure to do.
All recipes are taken from BBC Good Food Magazine.

Recipe from a 1901 cookbook...
Bavaroise aux Fraises
Bavaroise aux Fraises
Rub one pound of strawberries through a fine wine sieve or a masher. Add to the pulp thus obtained three ounces of sifted sugar and half an ounce of gelatine first dissolved in a gill of boiling milk or cream, and then left till cool. Next add half a pint of well-whisked cream or half a pint of custard made with the yolks of the eggs only. Whisk all well together, then stir in the whites of two eggs, whisked to a firm froth, and use the mixture to fill a wellgreased mould. Place in rough ice till set. Another and an improved method is to add two ounces each of chopped glacé cherries, and candied peel or angelica, to the other ingredients; but this, of course, is a matter for individual taste to decide.
