Rick
Stein's Food Heroes - Another Helping
'A
hunger-inducing road-show through the best of British produce' -
Jill Dupleix in The Times for Rick Stein's Food Heroes
In
the first series of Food Heroes, Rick Stein travelled throughout
the UK and Ireland in search of food producers who strived for perfection
and who cared more about the quality of their products than about
making a profit. Inspired by the heroes he met and the wonderful
food he tasted, Rick has now embarked on a second journey - and
television series - to seek out more inspirational producers and
to create 'another helping' of sensational recipes.
Rick
has always maintained that food should be cooked simply, so that
the stars of the dish, the ingredients, can shine through. His new
collection of over 100 recipes is no exception to this rule. From
twists on classic dishes to brand new ideas and flavours, each recipe
has been carefully constructed so that the best of British and Irish
produce can be enjoyed to the full.
Divided
into eight chapters including Eggs, Cheese, Pasta and Pizza; Salads,
Soups and First Courses; Fish and Shellfish; Poultry; Meat and Offal;
Furred and Feathered Game; Desserts, Cakes and Bread; Accompaniments
and Basic Recipes, the dishes range from simple starters such as
Hot New Potato and Dandelion Salad with Bacon and Shallots, to comforting
egg and cheese dishes including Cauliflower Cheese with Caerphilly
and Crisp Parsley Breadcrumbs, traditional meat dishes such as Cumberland
Sausage with Red Wine, Rosemary and Lentils, and mouth-watering
desserts including Yorkshire Curd Tart and Damson Cobbler.
Complete
with over 100 food and location photographs, Rick Stein's Food Heroes:
Another Helping will inspire you to seek out the very best produce
that Britain and Ireland have to offer and will show you how to
enjoy it to the maximum.
