A magnificent book --The Guardian
This beguiling book is best bought in hardback because you will be thumbing through it again and again. The section on Meat & Game is incredibly authoritative. --John Lewis, Waterstones

Format:Paperback
This wonderful little book contains a treasury of ideas for experienced cooks and for beginners. The late, great Jane Grigson's enthusiasm for food shows on every page as she explores a selected range of her favourite foods. Each section begins with a short essay, which sets the scene. The range within a relatively short book is enormous; from asparagus to venison and mussels and scallops to walnuts. This is a book I go back to time after time, for inspiration and ideas as well as for the recipes themselves.

Jane Grigson manages the beguiling combination of great recipes with good writing. This is one of her best books, & along with English Food, preserves a genuine culinary tradition that forms a large part of our cultural heritage describing much loved favourites from childhood as well as excellent dishes & techniques that would otherwise be lost . It deserves a place in any serious cook's library.

Format:Hardcover
A very rewarding book up there with Elizabeth David. Many traditional methods explained (salting beef, meat cures etc) and plenty of British and continental recipes included. Interesting to see what was not readily available in the '70s that we take for granted now. Many ingredients had to be obtained from specialist shops.
