It's an awesome 1st cook book so all good 👍 Review: Excellent - I like Delia for basic common sense cooking. There is a lot of basic stuff in here that isn't easy to find anywhere else - such as how to poach an egg or make perfect jacket potatoes. There is also valuable information about different types of fruit and veg and the best way to cook them This is a brilliant book just for browsing as well and the photographs are marvellous - you can almost taste and smell the food. The presentation of all the recipes is unfussy and simple. I really hate cookery books which show photographs of finished dishes with delicate drizzles of sauce round an artistically arranged heap of meat and vegetables. With this book you know you will be able to reproduce what's in the photograph even if you've never used the recipe before. I know I'm going to get lots of enjoyment and marvellous meals out of this book. If I have a reservation it is its sheer size - which is large and heavy. I'm also not sure how long the binding will stand up to constant handling - but then cookery books in daily use are meant to look a little worn! ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | 23,400 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) 336 in National & International Cookery 2,168 in Home & Garden (Books) | | Customer reviews | 4.5 4.5 out of 5 stars (441) | | Dimensions | 22.2 x 4.3 x 28.2 cm | | Edition | Combined | | ISBN-10 | 0563539070 | | ISBN-13 | 978-0563539070 | | Item weight | 2.7 kg | | Language | English | | Print length | 704 pages | | Publication date | 5 Mar. 2009 | | Publisher | BBC Books | ## Images ![Delia's Complete How To Cook: Both a guide for beginners and a tried & tested recipe collection for life - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71z-ayi+WYL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great CookBook *by B***N on 10 January 2026* Brought this for my niece as a 13th Birthday present and she loves it.

I have to say I have been very impressed by the scope of the recipes and the way they are decribed and most important the way they turn out. Nothing is worse than trying a new recipe which does not deliver the goods, but this book is really great(both in size and content) and you get what the recipe says you will get. A good book for the beginner and the expert alike. There are a number of recipes that use ingrediants which I do not like - ginger for example, but by reducing the amount slightly so that one has the hint rather than the full blast of the ginger the result is great. Surely this is what cooking is all about - using a tried and tested recipe but changing very slightly to suit one's likes and dislikes. A great cook book from a great cook. Worth every penny. ## Frequently Bought Together - Delia's Complete How To Cook: Both a guide for beginners and a tried & tested recipe collection for life - Delia's Complete Cookery Course: kitchen classics from the Queen of Cookery - Delia's Happy Christmas --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/48645074-delias-complete-how-to-cook-both-a-guide-for-beginners](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/48645074-delias-complete-how-to-cook-both-a-guide-for-beginners) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-05-06*
