    Digging in

    Very good. Glad to see the recipes that do have a YouTube video are still slightly different. So much better than constantly pausing a video whilst cooking along with jack.

    Dogging in already.

    I started watching Jack on YouTube, and followed his recipes really easily. Then I saw his book and treated myself to it for my birthday. It's a wonderful book of Jack's recipes, and I've done about 4 so far, but there are plenty more on my current list. All the recipes I've tried have been easy to follow. The photographs are lovely, and the whole book is beautifully put together. Definitely would recommend buying it.
