"Rick Stein's Food Heroes" salutes those
people who work hard, in the face of market pressures and often widespread
indifference, to make available the very best British produce: cheese, eggs,
poultry, meat and game, fruit and seafood. Some are more familiar than others,
such as Mrs Kirkham's remarkable Lancashire cheese #40, but they are merely the
most prominent among more than 300 producers and suppliers listed in an
extraordinarily thorough and useful directory. The book also incorporates over
100 new recipes, including Rick Stein's own variations on traditional British
dishes, such as "The Definitive Welsh Rarebit". |
