SynopsisYou know them from their eponymous hit television series and their three previous cookbooks:Cooking with the Two Fat Ladies,The Two Fat Ladies Ride Again, andThe Two Fat Ladies Full Throttle. Restoring passion to cooking and outspoken humor to the world of food, Clarissa Dickson Wright and Jennifer Paterson have brought joy to millions of fans.In Two Fat Ladies Obsessions, they turned their attention to what turns them on, taking an in-depth look at thirty-four of their favorite ingredients, ranging from Oysters, Chicken, Chilies, Lamb, and Olives to Raspberries, Chocolate, Peaches, Salt, Butter, and Coffee. More than 150 recipes -- all written in true Fat Lady style -- reveal not only the history of these foods, but also why they are so near and dear to their hearts. Jennifer's fondness for Lobster Puffs, Maine Style, stemmed from the time she spent cooking on a boat off the coast of New England, while her Orecchiette with Broccoli Rabe was a favorite from a childhood stint in Sicily. Clarissa's first food memory, at age 3 ½, of eating a cold sausage and a hard-boiled egg, leads to a wonderful recipe for Simple Sausage Ragu, and her years spent working on a pheasant farm provide a variety of ways to prepare the bird, including delectable Georgian Pheasant. Other recipes, such as T-Bone Steak à la Castle Floors, Ceviche of Salmon, Duke of Hamilton's Fig Ice Cream, Walnut Pancakes, and Raspberry and Chocolate Millefeuilles, offer a new twist on foods we all love. Uniquely personal and highly entertaining,Two Fat Ladies Obsessionswill delight old and new fans alike and serves as a fittingly robust tribute to the memory of Jennifer Paterson.

  • Not their best

    I didn't think it was as good as their other books. Not a bad book, or total waste of money, just not great. My friend liked it more than I did, but I only found two or three recipes that I would consider making - they're a bit stranger than some of their others. To be fair, their food obsessions are a little more "out there" than mine, hence a rather lukewarm review. If you are a fan, it's worth buying for the fun of reading Clarissa and Jennifer's chatter between the recipes.

  • Great British cooking

    I loved these two ladies! They were great, down to earth people. They taught me so much about the British foods. However, I do wish I can find some of the more common British foods, but no matter. It did contain Bubble and Squeak, for which I am so appreciative.
