From Booklist
*Starred Review* What else would you expect from someone who entered the food biz as the Naked Chef? Restaurateur, author (Jamie's Food Revolution, 2009, et al.), TV celebrity, and chef Oliver is bent on getting everyone in the English-speaking world to cook and eat more healthily. And, by gosh, with his enthusiasm and skills, he might just succeed in revolutionizing the way we prepare food. After all, he took on the Los Angeles school district to change its menus, and no doubt, he is right this minute contemplating another such assault. In his eleventh book, he targets families by streamlining menus, with preparation times from stove to table of 2030 minutes. He teaches readers by way of hundreds of color photographs, a front section explaining how to best organize their kitchens, and a list of the most essential tools and equipment. From that, he launches his 50 meals, intended for four to six people, each featuring three to four recipes. Instead of highlighting each individual dish, with home cooks expected to figure out multitasking, he whips each meal preparation into one page: ingredients listed at the top and then recipes explained in timing-steps. Plus, he liberally taps into various world cuisinesThai, Korean, British, Spanish, and othersto create one wondrous melting pot: satay sauce, sausage cassoulet, mackerel pat', and a tapas feast, for instance. Moreover, he's not ashamed to propose shortcuts (even labeling his recipes as cheats), whether that item is prepared puff pastry or prewashed baby spinach. Enjoy the experience!(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2011, American Library Association.)
