This is one of the best food programmes I have ever seen.
I love the fact that she lets you have a peek into her life she
cooks great food for friends and family and lets you come along
for the ride. I would love to purchase her dvds here in the UK
but have had no luck so far. The Food Network does not ship
to the UK. Any suggestions? Smile Smile

I agree Gina, I have seen her programmes before when on holiday in The States, and have enjoyed them here now.It's nice to see a whole series!
I have mentioned over on another thread that I have one of her cookery books...The Barefoot Contessa at Home..I got mine from Amazon via The Book Depositary £12+ and am really enjoying reading it. It is written very like her programmes and the pictures are gorgeous. You get a real sense of the area, and great recipes too.

Thanks for taking the trouble to reply Jennifer. I will give Amazon a go for the books! Gina

I enjoy her programmes too. She makes everything look easy. A few recipes need ingredients that are not readily available here. She uses cups for measurements which is a lot easier, than weighing everything. She makes lovely pop ups, yorkshire puddings I presume?

americans make what are called pop-overs, which are the same mixture as yorkshire pudding i believe, but i think they are usually cooked in a butter lined tin, souffle style

You can also get the plastic type muffin tins, where you don't need to line them. Ina seems to make everything easy. I enjoyed watching her in Paris with Jeffery this week.
