A Taste of the Country

by Jimmy Doherty

"A Taste of the Country" is a celebration of country living and an invitation to town and country folk to get more involved with the land around them and the food that they put on their plate. As well as eighty recipes for traditional British farmhouse dishes from shepherd's pie to rhubarb crumble, homemade chutney to elderberry jam, there is information about gathering wild food, keeping a few chickens, growing your own salads, whittling walking sticks, cooking with edible flowers, pickling and preserving and much more. The dreamy, rural lifestyle captured between the pages will guarantee that all readers can have their very own taste of the good life.

Not a bad cookbook and a huge step up from his largely irrelevant first book ' On the Farm '
Most will find much of the recipes of interest, but with any cookbook that is so general in its coverage rather than specific , will you go back to find them !
It's the sort of book you need to post it note the recipes that you like and perhaps index them in a notebook.
