In the BBC2 programme, "What to Eat Now", Valentine Warner takes us on a mouth-watering, content-rich and beautifully filmed journey through the best of autumnal food. He charts the growth of his favourite foods from their first stirrings as seeds through to fully grown foods. Natural history filming techniques will capture the life-cycle of everything from rabbit to mackerel to pumpkin. The programme then follows Valentine as he brings each ingredient back from the river, sea, woodland and field, shore or highland and launches it into ovens, pans and barbecues. He cooks 3-4 dishes in each episode, both indoors and out.

Format:Hardcover
Very nice book, quite different from the other recipe books that live on my shelf. It's full of inventive recipes that keep me interested in the kitchen. Occasionally it's frustrating that some of the ingredients are not your usual Sainsbury's stock and require a nice farmers market or healthy allotment, but other than that it's well worth having. A small note that if you have watched the latest series and are buying it for the recipes featured on it, the one you want is the 'more please' sequel to this. Arrived quickly in great condition.

Oh Valentine Warner
Take me to your cottage in the woods
Wear those green wellies as we embrace
Feed me on wild shrimp
Tell me my hair reminds you of moss and fallen leaves
Cook me a pie made of animals
I love you.

I don't buy many cookery books and generally stick to a few tried and trusted recipes but this book made me change my mind. The TV programme is just good fun and Valentine's passion for food and eating is infectious. I am now looking forward to going shopping at the weekend and trying some of the delicious recipes for myself. I'm certainly going to give about 6 people this book for christmas and I know they'll all love it

Great book for humble food with plenty of flavour
This is a fantastic little book if you want ideas for rustic and seasonal foods. The complaints about not having certain recipes that were in the programme is kinda silly. Read more
