Hand & Flowers Cookbook
The long-awaited cookbook from Tom Kerridge’s legendary two-Michelin-star pub.
_______
‘For as long as I can remember, I’ve had a passion for pubs. I love the heart they bring to a community, their laid-back vibe and their lack of pretension. I love the user-friendly style of food they offer. The recipes in this book reflect the journey we have been on...they show how we have driven dishes forward, pushed flavour forward.’
The Hand & Flowers is the first (and only) pub in the world to acquire two Michelin stars. At this relaxed and accessible dining space in the heart of Buckinghamshire, Tom Kerridge serves up innovative, sophisticated dishes that masterfully reinvent and elevate British classics for the twenty-first century.
This exceptional cookbook presents 70 of the best dishes that have ever appeared on the menu, including:
· Roast hog with salt-baked potatoes and apple sauce
· Slow-cooked duck breast, peas, duck-fat chips and gravy
· Smoked haddock omelette
· Salt cod Scotch egg with red pepper sauce and picante chorizo
· Chocolate and ale cake with salted caramel and muscovado ice cream
A fascinating insight into how Tom and his wife Beth set up and built their business and stunning celebration of one of the world’s best and most authentic restaurants.
‘Contains recipes for dishes that have made The Hand and Flowers famous, and fans of Kerridge will lap them up’ Daily Telegraph
