| The celebrity English chef Gordon Ramsey is Britain’s most successful and talked-about chef with many Michelin stars and 22 restaurants around the world. What most people fail to remember is that he is a health nut and runs marathons. In this his newest book, he has managed to offer healthy advice, and many recipes that are ingenious in their composition, flavour, and texture. Above all, these recipes can be prepared by anyone who has some knowledge of cooking, or is prepared to try. |
Gordon Ramsay is a disciplined cook. He advocates using every scrap of food, gives advice as to what tastes good, and costs less. The book is divided into breakfast, different types of lunch recipes, BBQ’s, suppers, children’s menus, and entertaining and healthy desserts.
No effort has been spared to provide tasty recipes that most people can afford.
The photography is excellent and that alone is worth the price of the book, but more importantly, readers will understand that food is as much for the eyes as it is for nourishment and presentation. Gordon Ramsey’s Healthy Appetite is suitable for all – young and old who like to eat well, and enjoy healthy food.
All professionals should be interested in this exceptionally well-illustrated book, not just for the presentations, but also for the recipes that healthy food fanatics demand. Luxury hotel clientèle are most interested in such food, and willingly pay.

I hadn’t seen this book before, so am especially glad to have seen your review and I’ve added it to my wishlist. I just finished Kathleen Flinn’s memoir on her time in Le Cordon Bleu which was also an interesting book about cooking and life in Paris. I’m working on a review of that for another site; will let you know when it’s posted. Thanks for sharing this!

Well, finally a cooking book for real people. Don’t get me wrong, I love unhealthy, expensive food (who doesn’t), but you can`t leave eating fat and pork chops.
I will add it to my wish list too, as Jennifer did.

Not read this one, but I was recently given his ‘Cooking for Friends’ book, which is well put together but a little unrealistic.
I accept I’m perhaps not the most ambitious cook, but ‘Asparagus Veloute’ and ‘Conger Eel Bisque’ aren’t recipes I’m likely to try at my next dinner party.

Finaly. There’s so many healty food books written by hacks who either have no idea what healthy means or what’s tasty and what’s not. Plus I love how they took care of providing appropriate presentation (photos) – it only shows that they care about their customers.
