Notes about Recipes in this book

  • Welsh rarebit

    • Bessp on January 04, 2026

      This was a delicious, quick meal. I added a splash of Worcestershire sauce because I like it in a rabbit. I served with a green salad for a light dinner. It would also be good with some sauteed leeks or zucchini under the cheese.

  • Onions with cream sauce and Wensleydale cheese

    • mjes on August 31, 2021

      I grew up on onions with cream sauce seasoned with paprika. Here one seasons with nutmeg and adds Wensleydale cheese. This is very good; I like it even better when I add some English peas.

Publishers Text

We have never experienced the variety of foodstuffs as we do today, with fruits and vegetables from all over the world, and increasingly cosmopolitan tastes as a result of foreign travel. But does it follow that we should become less familiar with the quality of good traditional British foods in the search for the exotic Farmhouse Cookery is both a culinary tour of Great Britain and a celebration of regional, traditional and contemporary cooking. Laura Mason demonstrates how landscape, climate and culture has contributed to the wide diversity of British cooking, from the excellent Herdwick lamb in the Lake District to the justifiably famous goat's cheese of South Wales. Farming in Britain has been under increasing pressure for the last two decades. The foot and mouth crisis of 2001 threw the plight of British farmers onto an international stage. Launched in conjunction with the National Trust's Farming Forward campaign; Farmhouse Cookery aims to promote the excellent foodstuffs produced by British farmers.
