Building upon the
ever-more-popular
principles of The New
English Kitchen and The
Savvy Shopper, Rose
Prince's new book
celebrates good British
food and shows how to
make the most of
ingredients and
leftovers. Hot chestnut
and honey soup, whipped
potatoes with Lancashire
cheese, melted ale and
cheddar to eat with
bread, baked haddock
soup, saffron buns and
watercress and radish
sauce for pasta: just a
few of the 200 completely
delectable and original
recipes in this inspiring
new book. The New English
Table explores affordable
and easy good food. Rose
Prince unlocks a larder
of new and unfamiliar
English ingredients from
cobnuts to red Duke of
York potatoes to
watercress and also shows
how eating local can mean
good eating at the same
time as being good for
the environment. She
explains how and where to
shop and introduces a
rhythm of cooking,
identifying which foods
are right for everyday
meals, and which are
perfect for the
occasional feast. She
shows how to make the
most of costly
ingredients - traditional
breeds, organic produce
and handmade foods - and
how to recycling
leftovers for yet more
delicious meals.
Leftovers from a roast
beef joint, for
instance, become an
aromatic salad with
toasted green pumpkin
seeds and herbs, or,
simmered with fungi and
red wine, a rich braise
to eat with mash or
buttered ribbons of
pasta. The New English
Table is proof that good
eating does not have to
cost the earth.

Kitchenella: the heroic
feminine cook. The
continuing story of the
rise and fall of good
food finds us at the end
of a decade of
exceptional growth and
opportunity, yet once
again in crisis. We
believe in food icons and
celebrity chefs, but
their philosophies are no
longer convincing,
because they cannot
possibly understand the
predicament of the
average family, living
through recession and
trying to do it right in
the kitchen. Where are
the cooks with wit, who
work out the budget and
plan an easy dish that
efficiently feeds family
and friends? Full of
logical, economical and
imaginative recipes that
solve the modern cook's
dilemma, Kitchenella
will teach you the skills
of those teachers who
work without books, the
'mothers' and the cooks
who subsequently learned
from them, to decisively
show you the easy way to
cook and shop. Promoting
a modest, simple way to
cook, Kitchenella shows
cooking is not about
showing off and
extravagance, but
generosity and kindness;
a subtle and intelligent
way to nurture. It is
cooking that is
economically sustainable
and achievable. It has
its roots in the learned,
spirited cooking of
generations, food that
can claim to have helped
win wars and saved lives;
a style of cooking that
is still relevant today,
by practically addressing
the struggles of modern
cooks, both men and
women. The ambition to
cook is a fantasy for
many, yet Kitchenella
shows how the everyday
struggle to put food on
the table can be
transformed into cooking
that is clever and
beautiful.

delicious food.
Simplicity is the keynote
in this handsome recipe
book, imbued with the
flavours of the Italian

itself to hundreds of
fresh and different
creations, especially
when handled by the truly
talented Theo Randall. He
believes that the best
pastas are the simplest:
a plate of tagliatelle

can be just as
magnificent as a ravioli
stuffed with sweet potato
and fennel. In "Pasta",
Theo Randall brings us a
mouthwatering collection
of 110 recipes, all
within the reach of the
keen cook. Using a mix of
fresh and dried pasta and
the freshest ingredients
according to the season,

variety of dishes, many
achievable in minutes.

Beans, to Pansotti with
Sheep's Ricotta and
Walnut Pesto, and
Cappaletti with Slow
Cooked Veal and Pancetta
there is a dish to please
everyone. "Pasta" is
destined to become a
kitchen classic.

cleverly modifiable to

the globe, Kosher Modern
