Product Description

Press and Journal

Clarissa has unearthed a treasure of anecdotes about food in Scotland.

Product Description

Join Clarissa on a culinary journey through Scotland's past. Authentic recipes are brought to life with anecdotes and artefacts from history. Discover the dishes relished by Romans and royalty, authors and poets, highlanders and islanders, and see just how well our ancestors ate. Clarissa says in her Introduction: 'This book is by no means exhaustive. It is an amuse-geule to tempt you, and show you that our ancestors ate good and interesting food...It is a historic taster into which you can dip for a feel of the country through the ages, whether the high life of Mary Stuart, the simple croft, the Age of Enlightenment, or the deep-fried Mars Bar of today.'

5.0 out of 5 stars Haute Cuisine, 1 Jan 2004

By A Customer

This is an excellent book; the Scottish kitchen is too often portrayed as nothing but broth and bothy, dismissed as nothing haughtier than oat cuisine without writers placing the food in historical context. Clarissa, that much-loved trencherwoman and erudite cicerone of the British cuisine, has rectified this. Her entertaining and warm book places gamey, fishy, rooty Scotland in its European heartland, in relation to Rome, France and the Mediaeval empire not merely in relation to its softer southern sister.
Perhaps Clarissa can next turn her attention to English, Irish and Welsh foods - regionally-specific companions to this volume would be fab.
