Menu Del Dia. More Than 100 Classic, Authentic Recipes From Acro. Rohan Daft is an instinctive home cook who has spent many years in Spain, traveling from Ibiza to Galicia to find delectable recipes that make full use of the vibrant flavors that seasonal and fresh ingredients have to offer. Menú del Día is an affectionate and knowing salute to Spain, beautifully illustrated with elegant drawings throughout. It is the perfect way to bring real Spanish cooking into your home. Rohan Daft sources Spanish ingredients for some of the best restaurants in Europe.

However, a smaller dish is necessary to obtain a depth of 3/4 inch, which is why we recommend the 9- by 9-inch dish. What is most important is that the leche frita be at least 3/4-inch thick or it will be very difficult to fry and turn when the time comes. Keep this in mind as you choose which dish to use, especially if you decide to increase the recipe.

This is a very nice, straightforward book that sent me straight back to memories of Spain and the food and the wine and the rest. So far I've tried the chickpeas and shrimp recipe and the bacalao. Next on my list is the red beans with pork rib, chorizo, bacon and blood sausage. What's not to love? Ingredients may be hard to source if you're outside of an urban area but with the internet and better specialty stores, it's not going to be impossible, and clearly worth the effort.
It's a great book.

This new cookbook and casual guide to everyday Spanish eating is the product of years of living, traveling, shopping and cooking in Spain - especially, according to Rohan's introduction - of an enviable four-month gastronomic dérive undertaken just last year.

Rohan knows the Basque country, Galicia, Valencia and Alicante, and his love of the country and its honest traditions of simple preparations shines through this collection of well over a hundred recipes based around the concept of the bargain, three or four course midday lunch still offered by many Spanish restaurants (indeed, the introduction reminds us that, under Franco, offering a cut-price menú del día was mandatory as a way of keeping the nation's workers well fed).

Lunch is a heavy meal in Spain. Some readers might be surprised to find several paellas in the Primeros Platos section, along with soups and salads. In fact, a medium-sized plate of paella with seafood and chicken often precedes the main course on the lunch menu. This is hearty food. For the most part, too, it's easy food for the home cook. I couldn't agree more with Rohan's comment that this is not a "persnickety cuisine." As he says, "the odd slip, miscalculation, or change of ingredient" is unlikely to spoil your enjoyment of the finished dish.

The great American food writer Waverley Root left us Food of France and Food of Italy - two monumental guides to the regional cuisines of those countries. It's a pity he didn't stretch to a Food of Spain. Rohan's ambitions here are less grandiose, but this is an excellent sketch of what the country offers - and unlike Root, comes with clear recipes too. It's especially timely, too, during a period where Spanish cooking has become increasingly identified with the - often excellent - avant garde experimentation of young Basque and Catalan chefs. This book brings it back home.

I fell in love with Spanish cuisine whilst at university in Madrid many years ago, but, until recently, my attempts to reproduce it had only included basics like paella, tortilla, gambas al ajillo, etc. A sympathetic friend sent me a copy of Menu del Dia which instantly inspired me to be a bit more adventurous. Many cookbooks put me off with glossy pictures showing dishes which look impossible to recreate and instructions which either treat the reader like a fool or presume that we all have a kitchen as well-equipped as the Ritz. Daft gives no-nonsense instructions that produce magnificent results. Having started by picking out some simpler recipes, I have now decided to work my way through the whole book.

I have scoured Southern California for authentic Spanish restaurants to no avail but now I can relive some of my favorite gastronomic memories in my own home thanks to Menu del Dia.

I'm happy and my wife's happy - the only problem is that friends have now started dropping by unexpectedly at dinner time so I never have any leftovers...

With all of the over-the-top cookbooks out there these days, this one bucks the trend and offers basic, workingclass fare. We've prepared a number of the recipes and all have been successful and tasty. This is not an exciting, colorful book. It has not pictures. It has little narrative, but it has an interesting concept. I look forward to continuing to make more recipes as they are very accessible to the home cook.

This is an insightful and charmingly written cookbook
of the type that we now see far too few -if any - of.
The Menu del Dia, as Rohan Daft says, is where you
find 'Spain's classic, favorite dishes'. These include
such good, refreshingly simple dishes as Mushrooms
with Poached Egg, Chicken with Garlic, and Stewed
Peppers.
The instructions are snappy and straightforward and
the introductions to each of the recipes make the
great affection that the author has for Spain and the
Spanish very clear.
