Gordon Ramsay’s Just Desserts
“Life is uncertain … eat dessert first,” says three-star Michelin chef Gordon Ramsay in the first line of Just Desserts. Based on recipes developed at his critically acclaimed London restaurants, the book features Ramsay’s classical methods and flair for teaching the basics and beyond. Even complex desserts are made simple with variations to suit the occasion. The first few chapters deal with simpler methods, like roasting fruit to draw out the natural essence or rolling out classic cookies.

No wonder he’s a star in Britain. Fabulous, imaginative recipes covering everything from easy cook basics to recipes you definitely need to practice! Examples – red berries with hibiscus and basil syrup; slow roasted peaches with orange caramel sauce; chocolate and thyme ice cream; apricot and cinnamon mousse; fruit tempura and many more. Not a book for beginners (he is a Michelin 3 Star chef) but very, very good.

I have dismissed his American television persona and concentrated only on his British series with food. A lot of his genius gets lost in translation, I’m afraid. It isn’t his fault. It’s ours! Instead of letting him perform his genius, we have made a celebrity out of him. For shame! This book is photographed so beautifully that you might forget to read the recipes! And simple they are. Simple and incredibly yummy. His division of sweets is easy-peasy. Oh, that’s Jamie. Sorry. You have some summer fruit. Plain. He shows you simple syrups and toppings and cremes that you simply pour over the fruit and you have an incredible dessert that will impress your friends no end. I really like Gordon Ramsay. I do not like the persona we see on American TV. I hope that in the future the powers that be at the networks will let him do what he is best at. Create. Get rid of the young wannabe chefs. Get rid of the screaming. Just let him create. If you love desserts, and want to keep it simple but elegant, and creative, this is your book. I just love it.

I would recommend chef gordon ramsay’s pastry book to any person lacking in the pastry field, being a chef myself for many years I found his pastry methods new and not so complicated , some chefs are not so skilled in the pastry side of things , his book encourages you to achieve the confidance to try new recipies with an open mind.
