Irish Book Awards - Eurospar Cookbook of the year 'Diana Henry's
How to Eat a Peach is as elegant and sparkling as a bellini' - The
Guardian 'Books of the Year' 'I adore Diana Henry's recipes - and
this is a fantastic collection. They are simple, but also have a
sense of occasion. The recipes come from all over the world and
each menu has an evocative story to accompany it. Beautiful.' - The

food writers with a book of 25 themed menus that I can't wait to
cook. This is top of my wish list!' - Good Housekeeping 'Favourite
Reads to Gift' When Diana Henry was sixteen she started a menu
notebook (an exercise book carefully covered in wrapping paper) in
which she wrote up the meals she wanted to cook. She kept this book
for years. Putting a menu together is still her favourite part of
cooking. Menus aren't just groups of dishes that have to work on a
practical level (meals that cooks can manage), they also have to
work as a succession of flavours. But what is perhaps most special
about them is the way they can create very different moods - menus
can take you places, from an afternoon at the seaside in Brittany
to a sultry evening eating mezze in Istanbul. They are a way of
visiting places you've never seen, revisiting places you love and
celebrating particular seasons. How to Eat a Peach contains many of
Diana's favourite dishes in menus that will take you through the
year and to different parts of the world.
Barbecue was invented in France? So says renowned cookbook author
Susan Herrmann Loomis. When the Gauls were racing through lush
forests in what is now Brittany, Normandy and the Loire Valley,
hunting wild boar, deer and rabbit, they'd return to the village,
build a fire and split their prize from barbe a queue (head to
tail) for roasting. Today, the French are still great barbecuers,
though over the centuries they've refined their skills and borrowed
methods from other cuisines: the grill from the US, the plancha
from Spain, the mechoui from North Africa. Recipes include: Pork
Burgers with Foie Gras, Steak Tenderloin with Smoky Olives,
Choucroute from the Grill and Poires Belle Helene. French Grill
features dishes for every occasion using ingredients that any
