Trees Can't Dance began over 4 years ago at the world's most northerly chilli farm. Against all conventional horticultural wisdom Dan May began growing chillies in the wilds of Northumberland. It wasn't long before Dan had to find something to do with all the produce. Disappointed with the quality of the chilli sauce brands available in the UK, he hit on the idea of filling a gap in the market by producing his own sauces using home-grown ingredients. In this fabulous book, chilli guru Dan shares more than 70 recipes celebrating chillies in all their varieties and strengths. Acquaint yourself with the history of chillies, how to grow them at home and how to identify the key varieties. There are ideas here for every kind of dish: soups and salads; nibbles and sharing plates; mains; side dishes; sauces, salsas and marinades; sweet things and drinks. Mouthwatering recipes include Thai Beef Noodle Soup; Moroccan Spiced Lamb Burgers; Texas Marinated Steak with Stuffed Mushrooms; Sweet Chilli-glazed Ham; Quick Chilli Lime Mayonnaise; three fiery pasta sauces; Chilli Pecan Brownies; and Chilli Hot Chocolate.

This is a fantastic book for experienced chilli cooks and people who are recent converts (I'm one of these). The recipes are really imaginative without being stupidly complicated. Many of them are so obviously a great idea that I can't believe I hadn't thought of it myself. Example: adding hot chilli powder to chocolate & stem ginger cookie dough. Brilliant! I also really like the fact that it features food from around the world - not just all red hot stuff. Lots of new spins on familiar favourites (like hot chilli chowder). Really useable. Makes you want to eat everything in it.

I bought this book because the seared tuna recipe featured in one of the foodie mags I subscribe to......normally I just cut out the recipes but for some reason this book called to me. I own hundreds of cookery books, some only have one recipe I'll ever use, some I keep because the titles are beautiful (I love having a book entitled Falling Cloudberries on my shelf) and then you'll occasionally find one that keeps calling you back.....this is such a book. I suppose I should point out that I don't eat spicy food, in fact I am probably the pickiest eater around here....but I love to cook and the husband loves to eat...I have made the mango chicken thing, the seared tuna, the whole salmon, the Italian pot roast thing, the veggie nut roast and the veggie burgers, the goats cheese stuffed chicken....the husband has raved about every one.......okay, I made him the chilli and his head nearly exploded but that was my fault as I didn't have chipotle paste and tried to make something similar by mushing up a jar of chipotles.....what I am trying to say is buy this book if you like a bit of spice. The recipes aren't all 'blow your head off' hot.....I have recommended this book so many times to so many people I think Dan should be paying me commission......

Bought this book for my brother's birthday as he likes to cook and enjoys hot and spicy food.
I was tempted to keep it for myself as it contained so many tempting recipes. Will definitely be buying one for myself soon.
