A Taste of the Country by Jimmy Doherty
Inviting the town and country folk to get more involved with the land around them and the food they eat, this is a celebration of country living. It contains recipes for traditional British farmhouse dishes, and also provides information about gathering wild food, keeping a few chickens, growing your own salads, pickling and preserving and more.
Jimmy Doherty was born in the beautiful Essex countryside, and has been passionate about nature and farming for as long as he can remember. After leaving school, he became an entomologist at Molehall Wildlife Park, the Natural History Museum and Coventry University but in 2003, he decided to leave the study of insects behind him to set up a rare breed pig farm in Suffolk. His trials and tribulations were filmed by the BBC and he wrote his first book On the Farm to accompany the series. He still lives and works on the farm with his girlfriend, 300 pigs, 3 cows, 15 sheep, 2 dogs and 100 chickens.
