Henrietta Sowle calls her book a compilation of persiflage and cookery, and she means both halves. Month by month, from January to December, she visits the market stalls, comments on what is in season and what it costs, tells stories of picnics and dinners, and gives the recipes that turn each month’s produce into a meal.
A cookery book with a sense of humour, as pleasant to read in an armchair as at the stove. Download the free EPUB.
