Product Description
Product Description
British Food is part of a burgeoning revival and enthusiasm for British cuisine. After exhausting our tastebuds on French, Italian and Asian fare, we are rediscovering our own culinary heritage and realising that British food is something that we can not only be justifiably proud of, but also relish, explore and develop. Mark Hix, is passionate about British food and in this book he gives classic British dishes a fresh modern twist to bring them bang up to date and also creates exciting new dishes with traditional, local ingredients. The first chapter introduces the reader to the best of British ingredients, seasonal availability, and advice on shopping and storage. Recipe chapters focus on Soups; Starters, Snacks and Savouries; Fish and Seafood; Poultry and Game; Meat; Vegetables; Puddings and Baking. From Fish and Chips, Kedgeree and Lancashire Hotpot, to Devils on Horseback, Game Pie and Eton Mess, the book will make every reader excited about cooking British.

Format:Paperback
This book sets out a lot of well known dishes but the recipes are spot on. There's still a large portion of the world that spits on British food but that is just nonsense. I've tried at least 20 recipes from here and they've all come up trumps. They are pretty easy to follow too.
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
Good priced recipe book for all our favourite British recipes. Easy to follow and great value. It also remind us of food that is not eaten too often these days and these recipes should be tried.

The title attracted me to this cook book, but it did not contain the type of recipes I was looking for. Not the fault of the seller.
