A collection of Welsh food and customs through the centuries, from 12th century Welsh nobility to 18th century gentry; from cottager, farmer, fisherman to the present day aficionado of organic cheeses, wines and waters. Written in the author's entertaining, demystifying style, this book provides authentic, proven recipes with cultural and social history. When first published in 1980, it was widely and enthusiasically praised. It has now been revised, redesigned and updated with a wealth of new material.

I love LOVE the idea of this book but I was a long way from understanding the ingredients and even at times the instructions.

Perfect! the author's voice is friendly and chatty. it's so much more than a cookbook. It gives a real taste of Welsh people's day-to-day life. So if you are from a food culture which you considered far superior (i.e. the French) you still have a lot to learn from this book.

[Catherine Woodman]

Not a great cuisine, but this cookbook does a good job of depicting it in the best possible light.
