Winter Food by Jill Norman

Winter Food by Jill Norman

Cold weather provokes appetite; food eaten around the fire or in a warm kitchen provides sustenance and comfort as wind and rain prevail outside. The warming touch of spices enhances casseroles and flavours mulled wine and hot toddies. Gardens, orchards and fields may be dormant, but there are the vegetables, fruits and nuts of the harvest, from squash and celeriac to chestnuts and quinces. Even if forests and moorlands are in the grip of cold, game is still hunted to provide pheasant, wild duck, venison and hare. With influences from as far afield as northern China and South America, Scandinavia, eastern Europe and the mountain villages of Italy, Winter Food focuses on making the best use of the season's foods, providing a rich variety of dishes for us to enjoy in the shorter days and longer nights.

Jill Norman established the food and wine list for Penguin Books before becoming an independent publisher and consultant. Her books include The Complete Book of Spices, which won the Andre Simon prize, the Glenfiddich trophy and the IACP award for a reference work; The New Penguin Cookery Book and Herb & Spice, awarded a prize by the German Academy of Gastronomy. She has also updated Encyclopedia Britannica's entries on herbs and spices. She has travelled widely, making frequent visits to Australia and the US, and spending time with the EC Patent Commission. Wherever she has been she has gathered inspiration for the recipes in this book.
