Synopsis

This is an essential book for people who love cooking and want to sample Hopkinson's innovative recipes which reinvent the often forgotten classics of British cuisine. Recipes such as Roast Goose Stuffed with Mashed Potato, Beetroot Puree with Horseradish and, of course, Gammon and Spinach introduce regional specialities, old favourites and essentials of continental bourgeois cooking with a good smattering of Mediterranean and Eastern flavours. The recipes are easy and accessible and introduced in an engagingly personal style.

'Gammon and Spinach is a book from which I want to eat almost every recipe ... here we have Hopkinson at his award-winning, wide-ranging best.' Clarissa Dickson-Wright, Night & Day

'Each paragraph reveals some little insight, some chef's truc, that is new to me' Rowley Leigh, Sunday Telegraph

'Fully of homely food of the kind everybody now wants to eat and cook' You Magazine

A propos du livre

À propos de l?auteur

Simon Hopkinson was born in 1954 and grew up in Bury, Lancashire, where his love of good eating was established at the kitchen table. He left school at seventeen to work in the kitchen of Yves Champeau, the acclaimed chef-patron of the Normandie in Birtle where the flavours of regional French cooking made a lasting impression on him. He set up on his own at the Shed in Dinas near Fishguard at the age of twenty-one and in 1978 became the youngest chef to win an Egon Ronay star. In 1983 he launched himself on the London restaurant scene as chef at the newly opened Hilaire on the Old Brompton Road and swiftly found himself one of the most acclaimed young chefs in the business. His friendship with one particularly good customer, Terence Conran, finally led to the opening of Bibendum in 1987 where he worked as chef until 1995 when he retired to concentrate more on his writing. Simon is one of our most highly regarded food writers and his legendary column in the Independing won the Glenfiddich Award for Cookery Writing no less than three times. His books include Roast Chicken and Other Stories, which won both the Andre Simon and Glenfiddich Awards for 1995 and was voted the most useful cookery book of all time in a survey of food writers, chefs and restaurateurs, Gammon and Spinach and Roast Chicken and Other Stories: Second Helpings.
