The New English Kitchen Changing the Way You Shop, Cook and Eat Synopsis
From how to stretch a native breed, properly hung cut of beef to eight meals, to making stock from prawn or langoustine shells, to saving by making your own bread (and using it right up to the last crumb), 'The New English Kitchen' will inspire you make the absolute most of the food you buy. Acclaimed food writer Rose Prince guides you in making the most of local availability and seasonality, keeping a well-stocked store cupboard, growing staples such as herbs and peppering your diet with luxuries such as Parma ham, figs and wonderful cheeses, creating not so much a cookbook but a plan, and a brilliantly practical manual for future generations of cooks.
