How do you boil, scramble, poach or fry an egg? How do you grill, fry or barbeque a sausage or a chop? How do you cut veggies for a salad? How do you boil, mash, or bake a potato? How do you cook pasta?What do you need in the way of equipment and supplies to set yourself up in the kitchen for the first time?How do you set a table if you've got a hot date and want to make a good impression, or if you're one of those partners or fiancés who want to make a romantic dinner for two (you get lots of brownie points for that one!)?All of these questions and lots more are answered in The Blokes Book of Cooking.
