      School meals in primary schools are a set price, so the changes didn't affect families... the caterers made less profit. Chartwells, being the biggest supplier of meals in England, are Tory scum and absolutely exploited the lockdowns to make more money.

    Sometimes "teachers" make assumptions about what other people know and skip steps that seem elementary to them. It would not kill Gordon Ramsey or his editor from adding that the cook should test the chicken for doneness, since the size of the chicken breasts and the accuracy of the oven's temperature have a direct influence on the correct cooking time.

Sure guessing within a few minutes could be okay, but that was a huge undercalculation.

It's easy to say you should use your common sense when cooking when you already have the experience, but some people are just starting to cook and they are first learning about these things.

    I think you missed it on the first review, the review said for a new cook. The book doesn’t mention a internal temperature for chicken and someone who is new to cooking wouldn’t know to look out for that, also might not have a cooking thermometer and wouldn’t know to check if they are not told. Yes as a chef or someone who cooks often it’s “common sense” to check the temperature before eating/serving but if it doesn’t look raw I’m sure alot of people wouldn’t think about that and would eat it after the cook time given. I’m sure you’ve noticed a lot of recipes say cook for x amount of minutes or until internal temperature reaches x. There’s a reason for that

      I am Arab, and the shakshuka recipe is so famous in our country that we make it every week.
      I can Confirm that the recipe is Kinda wrong, as there is too much tomato sauce and not enough eggs and the Vegetables is wrong there is not any Jalapeno or carrots There is no paprika and she use Wrong type of cheese
      According to the original recipe, she must use Mozzarella cheese and she must use pepper instead of paprika and use tomatoes instead of tomato sauce As for vegetables, she should has used onions, parsley, bell peppers, and hot peppers

I don’t think there is a way to predict all possible little things that ppl don’t know.

    When I used to cook Rachael Ray’s recipes I did notice that she used a lot of ingredients that my family wouldn’t eat (in those days), but not these days. I would try again. I think my tastes are a lot more grown up and I was brought up with a mother who tried to teach us about worldly flavors so everything sounds so good. I have all of her books. I find her latest books are more interesting with better recipes.
    I also have Cooking at Home and Ina’s book. I have all her books and I think that that specific book is no different in the flavors OR the techniques or attitude. I have not cooked much from David Chang’s book but I did buy the Anyday Microwave cookware and it is frigging amazing!!!! Worth every penny. There are a lot of ingredients that are very different. I could see the issue with “no actual recipes” but whatever I did make from it were excellent.

What's great about cooking as a hobby, is you can always try a recipe as written and then moderate the amount of a given ingredient the next time you make it.

I also have his AnyDay Bowls which go well with this book since they are designed for microwave cooking. I make the Chawanmushi all the time and it taks a little effort to dial it in, but it's one of my goto lunches.
    I've tried multiple Gordon Ramsey recipes over the years and I often find them flawed and needing adjustment. I feel like very often his team comes up with something, but they don't test it very much before they publish it.

    to be fair, the chicken in the cookbook picture looked a fair deal smaller than what was used here (or maybe the reviewer as well), but 15 minutes for chicken to go from raw to done in a 425 degree oven does seem unlikely. i don't think i get chicken thighs done in that time. maybe wings? definitely not bigger pieces than that.
