Books about English Food
England's Heritage Food and Cooking

It has always fascinated me that England - not a large country by any stretch of the imagination - has so many regional specialities. And not just cheeses and sauces ... What these are and how some of them came about, you can also learn from this book.

It also covers major food groups and their traditional preparation, plus all major festivals. And if you're never sure what's part of a traditional English breakfast and what isn't, or how to serve traditional afternoon tea, then don't look any further.

And the recipes? Well, it has all the classics like Yorkshire puddings, Lancashire Hotpot, Kedgeree, Maids of Honour and Jam Roly Poly. But you can also find a few unfamiliar dishes ... like London Particular or bacon floddies. Descriptions are easy to follow, and there are photos of both the finished dish and stages of preparation throughout, that will help you if you're not Gordon Ramsay or your grandmother ....

Try it and taste the results!
