Prospect Books First Catch Your Hare: The Art of Cookery Made
Book SynopsisQuite simply, the most important-and the most printed-English cookery book of the eighteenth century which defines for many the food and dining customs of the Georgian era. This is a facsimile edition, for the first time in paperback. The hardback version of this book was published by Prospect in 1994. The facsimile is of the first (1747) edition and preserves its large format. This edition also contains considerable information about Hannah Glasse in a biographical introduction, as well as two essays on the degree to which Glasse was indebted to other authors for her recipes. These essays (by Jennifer Stead and Priscilla Bain) were important milestones in our understanding of the techniques of early cookbook compilation when they first appeared. There is also a detailed and informative glossary, with illustrations where necessary, which help the reader interpret the recipes and the ingredients referred to. The book has a modern index. Hannah Glasse was a remarkable woman. She was not a professional cook, rather her expertise was in dressmaking and mercery. Nor was she born with any natural advantages. As the illegitimate offspring of a Northumberland gentleman lawyer, she had to make her way in the world-not greatly helped by a somewhat ineffective husband and large family. Thus she turned to a variety of moneymaking ventures, among which was this book (sold direct through a list of subscribers and the shops of friends rather than the book trade). She seems to be almost self-taught both in literacy (her early letters are by no means models of grammar or spelling) and in cookery. Even if her recipes are often filched from other people''s books, she certainly puts her own gloss on many of them, and there is a definite authorial voice to the text as a whole. Glasse''s book is particularly significant both in its attitudes to the influence of French cookery on the English middle classes and in its reflection of the roles of mistress and servant in the running of an urban household. Its recipes are often successful and still capable of reproduction in the modern kitchen. The first curry recipe printed in England appears here. Now available in a more compact format.

Transworld Publishers Ltd Seasonal Food: A guide to what's in season when
Book SynopsisUnless you are a farmer, grower, or food expert, I bet your knowledge of what's in season and when is pretty slim. Despite a renaissance in British home cooking, coupled with a rediscovery of local produce through farmers' markets and enthusiastic celebrity chefs, many of us are missing some pretty crucial information. I mean, what's the use of a fancy gooseberry recipe in November?You want to know what's good to eat now? And why? Without pouring through stacks of recipe books? You need this book. Seasonal Food is organized into twelve chapters, one for each month of the year. Each chapter starts with a brief story about the month itself (what's happening in the farming calendar, food-related customs and traditions), followed by narrative sections covering what's in prime season - fruit and veg, meat, fish and other seasonally-influenced produce such as cheeses. There are recipes with information such as traditions, best regions etc and other basic suggestions about preparation. And new for this edition and in response to a growing sophistication in seasonal eating in the UK, it features gourmet foods that you can't source locally. Discover when to get the finest nectarines or the best month to treat yourself to Vacherin cheese.Trade ReviewA must for the discriminatingly greedy -- Andrew Marr * Daily Telegraph *This guide to food and the seasons is not a preachy, finger-wagging tome. It is written with a real delight in food and produce... and tells you not just when things are in their natural seasons, but when and why certain foods taste better at certain times of the year - and how to cook them -- Aileen Reid * Sunday Telegraph *The perfect reference book for all keen cooks, for all those fed up with all year round strawberries, and for all those who want an affinity for the seasons -- Antony Worrall ThompsonI like Paul Waddington's book. It seemed to me more than what it says on the cover with equally important advice on when things will actually be at their best. Obviously a labour of love for the author as well as a valuable companion for his reader -- Shaun HillA superb book and a must for anyone even remotely interested in cooking * Highland News *

Grub Street Publishing South Wind Through the Kitchen
Book SynopsisBefore Elizabeth David died in 1992 she and her editor, Jill Norman, had begun work on a volume of The Best of but then her health deteriorated and the project was shelved. The idea was revived in 1996 when chefs and writers and Elizabeths many friends, were invited to select their favourite articles and recipes. Some sent notes explaining their choice, others provided an anecdote or a recollection about her, others sent lists of recipes they had been using for years. This book is the fruit of that harvest of recommendations and the names of the contributors, who number among them some of our finest food writers such as Simon Hopkinson, Alice Waters, Sally Clarke, Richard Olney, Paul Levy and Anne Willan, appear after the pieces they had chosen along with their notes. The extracts and recipes which make up South Wind Through the Kitchen are drawn from all Elizabeth Davids books, namely A Book of Mediterranean Food, French Country Cooking, Italian Food, Sumer Cooking, French Provincial Cooking, Spices, Salt and Aromatics in the English Kitchen, English Bread and Yeast Cookery, An Omelette and a Glass of Wine, and Harvest of the Cold Months. There are over 200 recipes in the book organised around courses and ingredients such as eggs and cheese, fish and shellfish, meat, poultry and game, vegetables, pasta, pulses and grains, sauces, sweet dishes and cakes, preserves, and bread, all interspersed with extracts and articles making it a delightful compendium to dip into as well as cook from.

Book SynopsisGingerbread is a lovely, squidgy treat which has played a part in almost everyone?s childhood. But do you know what gingerbread was made of when it first arrived on our plates?

BenBella Books The Art of Eating Through the Zombie Apocalypse:
Book SynopsisJust because the undead's taste buds are atrophying doesn't mean yours have to! You duck into the safest-looking abandoned house you can find and hold your breath as you listen for the approaching zombie horde you've been running from all day. You hear a gurgling sound. Is it the undead? No--it's your stomach. When the zombie apocalypse tears down life and society as we know it, it will mean no more take out, no more brightly lit, immaculately organized aisles of food just waiting to be plucked effortlessly off the shelves. No more trips down to the local farmers' market. No more microwaved meals in front of the TV or intimate dinner parties. No, when the undead rise, eating will be hard, and doing it successfully will become an art. The Art of Eating through the Zombie Apocalypse is a cookbook and culinary field guide for the busy zpoc survivor. With more than 80 recipes (from Overnight of the Living Dead French Toast and It's Not Easy Growing Greens Salad to Down & Out Sauerkraut, Honey & Blackberry Mead, and Twinkie Trifle), scads of gastronomic survival tips, and dozens of diagrams and illustrations that help you scavenge, forage, and improvise your way to an artful post-apocalypse meal. The Art of Eating is the ideal handbook for efficient food sourcing and inventive meal preparation in the event of an undead uprising. Whether you decide to hole up in your own home or bug out into the wilderness, whether you prefer to scavenge the dregs of society or try your hand at apocalyptic agriculture, and regardless of your level of skill or preparation, The Art of Eating will help you navigate the wasteland and make the most of what you eat.Trade ReviewA beautiful, cock-eyed culinary concoction--truly sui generis in its conceit--and wickedly delicious in the scope of its recipes. Who knew? Flesh-eating zombies and haute cuisine-eating foodies collide in this trippy, rustic cookbook chock full of inside dish on both the walking dead and the post apocalyptic larder. This one gets FIVE SEVERED HEADS (OF LETTUCE)! --Jay Bonansinga, New York Times bestselling author of The Walking Dead: Descent, Frozen, and The Sinking of the Eastland If you're seeking an indispensable guide to surviving the zombie apocalypse without losing your lunch, look no further than the pages of this clever and spirited cookbook. All of your queries (large and bite-sized) are surely answered within, whether you plan to subsist on foraged edibles, hand-harvested seaweed, or the bounty of a rooftop farm. Get ready to soak up the genuinely useful tips and salivate over the trove of recipes. Impending doom never sounded so appetizing. --Sarah Huck, author of Campfire Cookery: Adventuresome Recipes and Other Curiosities for the Great Outdoors The Art of Eating Through the Zombie Apocalypse is the most comprehensive guide to eating--and eating well--during an outbreak of the undead ever to be written. From fine cuisine to edible insects, Ms. Wilson's knowledge is unmatched, and her work shows a deep understanding of the qualities and practices necessary for survival against the undead. In conclusion, I want Lauren Wilson on my zombie survival team! (Or, failing that, someone who has read her book ...) --Scott Kenemore, author of The Zen of Zombie and Zombie, Ohio For too long, those writing about zombies have obsessed about the living dead eating human flesh. What about what humans will eat when the undead roam the earth? Lauren Wilson has finally answered all of your culinary questions. An essential read for anyone who wants to not only survive the zombie apocalypse, but thrive! --Daniel W. Drezner, author of Theories of International Politics and Zombies Much more than just a cookbook, The Art of Eating Through the Zombie Apocalypse is an essential survival manual for every serious doomsday prepper. Eschewing ubiquitous chapters on hand-to-hand combat and gun safety, Lauren Wilson's apocalyptic guidebook instead focuses on what would really matter for survival--for who wants to exist in a world populated with zombies if there's nothing good to eat (besides humans, of course)? --Kyle William Bishop, author of American Zombie Gothic Who knew that my lifelong love of the undead would yield access to some damn good recipes? Thanks to this book, should the zombie apocalypse ever happen at least I'll be well nourished and happy. --Steven C. Schlozman, MD, assistant professor, Harvard Medical School, author of The Zombie Autopsies There are many reasons people find it stimulating or amusing to contemplate the impending zombie apocalypse: they like to imagine themselves being a good deal more heroic and/or violent than their current situations allow, they desire the end of current social/economic arrangements, or they hope for a better world following the demise of this one. A book such as this revels in a related scenario--to picture oneself living in comfort and even luxury amidst all the destruction and chaos ... If such a reverie appeals to you, you'll thoroughly enjoy this book. --Dr. Kim Paffenroth, author of Gospel of the Living Dead Here's a thorough exposition of all the skills and practices anyone who wants to live through the collapse of civilization needs to know. The author covers all aspects of survival technology in depth and with clarity, and there's even a smattering of edible wild plants. --Wildman Steve Brill, author of Identifying and Harvesting Wild and Medicinal Plants in Wild (and Not So Wild) Places A disturbingly delicious and mouth-watering collection of truly apocalyptic recipes. Who thought the end of the world could be this yummy? Go on ... take a bite! --Jonathan Maberry, New York Times bestselling author of Rot & Ruin and Fall of the Night
