One of my favourite books is “Food of England” by Dorothy Hartley, a veritable treasure trove of food, ingredients, customs, traditions, rural activities, crafts, foraging identification all accompanied with beautifully executed line drawings.The book is not just a recipe book, but an essential almanac covering the regional foods of Britain with charming observations about local traditions as well as intricate explanations of different cuts of meat, shapes and styles of English bread and even illustrations of regional sheep and cattle. In short, it’s a historical account of how life was over 60 years ago, recorded in journalistic detail and with a certain amount of humour, as such was Dorothy Hartley’s way. One of my favourite phrases from the book sums up exactly how I feel about English (and British) food, “English cooking is old-fashioned, because we like it that way” Dorothy says, and I wonder how many other people feel just the same way……it’s our historical basis for many a modern dish and the foundation of our culinary culture.

Entertaining as opposed to being scholarly, it’s nevertheless a beautiful book with some wonderful historic recipes that follows the Christian year.
