The book does not, however, ignore the basics and it will serve not only those who have just purchased or inherited a kitchen range for the first time, since it is suitable for use with all available models, but also those who have owned one for years and are looking for some fresh ideas. But because a country range is more than just a cooker, as any owner will enthusiastically tell you, this book contains all sorts of useful hints and tips for getting the most from your oven – everything from drying sports clothing to using your kettle for cleaning the hotplate lid. The recipes, clearly marked with easy-to-identify symbols indicating instructions for 2-door, 4-door or Thermodial-control models, can be cooked on Agas, Rayburns and all similar types of ranges. No one who owns a kitchen range or is planning on owning one should be without this book.
