River Cottage A to Z : Our Favourite Ingredients, & How to Cook Them

An authoritative and glorious A to Z of more than three hundred ingredients and three hundred recipes, set to become an essential tome in the River Cottage library.

This huge and beautiful book is a River Cottage encyclopedia of ingredients. With entries on vegetables, fruits, herbs, spices, meat, fish, foraged foods, dairy, oils, vinegar, and much more, it celebrates more than three hundred ingredients that the modern cook might come across.

Each ingredient is described by Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall or an expert contributor from his River Cottage team. They explain how best to prepare a given ingredient, which varieties to look for, and optimum seasonality. For every entry there is a delicious recipe.
