Long ago, high days and holidays were celebrated throughout the year with foods that were available only in that particular season, and although we still celebrate festivals such as Easter and Christmas, others such as Michaelmas and Twelfth Night have fallen by the wayside. In this entertaining and valuable book, you will discover the fascinating customs and traditions linked with these festivals and fairs, interwoven with a great many of the easy-to-follow traditional, classic and modern recipes associated with them. These include such inspiring recipes as Dublin Coddle and Bacon, Cabbage, Potato and Cheese Bake for St Patrick's Day; Orange Blossom Cake and Violet Ice Cream for Mothers' Day; Easter Lamb with Red Wine Sauce; Lincolnshire Whitsun Cake; Halloween Broomstick Bangers and Pumpkin Custard Tart; Christmas Snowflake Cake; Gingerbread Ice Cream, Hogmanay Black Bun and savoury Twelfth Night Pie - and a great many more. Whether you're an experienced cook looking for new ideas or a complete novice in the kitchen, you're sure to enjoy this unique collection of tempting recipes, along with the history, fascinating stories and traditions associated with the various festivals. This work features: many easy-to follow recipes; recipes that are both modern and traditional; and fascinating background history and stories. The authors' previous book was highly successful.
