The Natural Cook: Eating the Seasons from Root to Fruit

Description

This is an inspirational book for the way we eat now. Tom Hunt puts fresh, flavoursome, veg-focused food centre-stage, and features recipes that make use of every ounce of an ingredient. Each of the 26 seasonal 'hero' ingredients featured is represented first by three simple cooking techniques that teach you how to make a delicious simple dish. These techniques are then followed by three world-inspired recipes, which make use of the prepared ingredients as well as drawing in other seasonal fruit and vegetables.

Tom Hunt is an acclaimed eco-chef working on projects to revive our cooking heritage and support all aspects of our food sovereignty. He works closely with various food charities and organisations including Feed the 5,000 events worldwide, FareShare and FoodCycle, highlighting important concerns in the food industry by creating banquets that promote debate around the food served. He is also the founder of Poco, an award-winning restaurant in Bristol as well as a mobile restaurant made up of an eccentric collection of homemade yurts and canopies that tour the festival circuit serving seasonal tapas and featuring thrifty cuts of meat, sustainably sourced fish and seasonal vegetables, 75% of which have been sourced within a 50-mile radius.
