Jo Seagar's The Cook School Recipes

Jo Seagar Cook School Recipes
Who is this Jo Seagar person?

Well, to be honest I didn't know, but after flicking through her new cook book, The Cook School Recipes, I would be prepared to make a statement that she is an accomplished cook who likes preparing easy food that looks and tastes fantastic.

Anyone from New Zealand, her home country, probably has a better idea about her background. She has a cooking school which is regularly booked out nine months in advance and a cafe where visitors can try a tasty morsel.

Turning the pages of the book my eye caught a recipe for a delicious looking Chardonnay cake, filled with citrus rind and served with grapes. The picture looks devine, so I might even give this one a go straight away.

Jo does like to cut corners though – but in her own words, if you hide the evidence no one will ever know. Her recipe for crème brulee involves frozen, store-bought custard and a quick sugar and water caramel which is poured over the top. Easy, yes, but I think you'd have to draw the line about owning up to 'cooking' that one.

The illustrations are beautiful, and although I haven't made everything out of the recipe books I already have, this book looks to become a quick favoute.

It will be available for sale from May 1 and retails for $39.95.
