'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

Tom Kerridge's new book, The BBQ Book, is out now.
Tom Kerridge worked as a chef in restaurants across Britain before deciding to set out on his own and take over a rundown pub in the quiet Buckinghamshire town of Marlow. He opened The Hand & Flowers with his wife Beth in 2005, and it went on to become the first (and only) pub in the world to acquire two Michelin stars. In 2014 he opened a second pub in Marlow, The Coach, which was followed by The Butcher's Tap. More recently, he launched Kerridge's Bar & Grill in London and The Bull and Bear in Manchester. His previous books include the bestselling Proper Pub Food, Tom Kerridge's Best Ever Dishes, Tom's Table, Tom Kerridge's Dopamine Diet, Lose Weight for Good and Tom Kerridge's Fresh Start and his most recent bestseller Outdoor Cooking. In 2021 Tom launched the game-changing Full Time Meals campaign with Marcus Rashford. Tom is a judge on the BBC series Great British Menu.
