The official cookbook based on the hit TV series seen on Netflix
and around the world, discover mouthwatering recipes that will
transport you into the genteel world of Downton Abbey. The Official
Downton Abbey Cookbook presents over 100 recipes that showcase the
cookery of the Crawley household - from upstairs dinner party
centrepieces to downstairs puddings and pies - and bring an
authentic slice of Downton Abbey to modern kitchens and Downton
fans. Whether adapted from original recipes of the period,
replicated as seen or alluded to on screen, or typical of the time,
all the recipes reflect the influences found on the Downton Abbey
tables. Food historian Annie Gray gives a warm and fascinating
insight into the background of the dishes that were popular between
1912 and 1926, when Downton Abbey is set - a period of tremendous
change and conflict, as well as culinary development. The recipes
are grouped by occasion, which include breakfast; luncheons and
suppers; afternoon tea and garden parties; picnics, shoots and
racemeets; festivities; upstairs dinner; desserts and canapes;
downstairs dinner; downstairs supper and tea; and the still room.
From the upstairs dinner menu: Caviar Croutes Chicken Vol-au-Vents
Cucumber Soup Trout in Port-Wine Sauce Quail and Watercress
Champagne Jelly From the downstairs dinner menu: Toad-in-the-Hole
Beef Stew with Dumplings Steamed Treacle Pudding Jam and Custard
Tarts Gingerbread Cake With a foreword by Gareth Neame, executive
producer and co-creator of Downton Abbey, and featuring over 100
stunning colour photographs, many taken on the set of Downton Abbey
and using the original glassware and china, The Downton Abbey
Cookbook also includes a special section on hosting Downton-themed
dinner parties, and includes stills from across the TV series as
well as the latest film. Notes on the etiquette and customs of the
times, quotes from the characters and descriptions of the scenes in
which the foods appear provide rich context for the dishes. With
these and more historic recipes, savour the rich traditions and
flavours of Downton Abbey without end.
This brilliant collection of sweet confections and savoury nibbles
will inspire and entice bakers and lovers of afternoon tea, of all
ages. Set against a backdrop of twelve of Britain's most stunning
palaces and residences, the recipes are a mix of traditional,
contemporary and whimsical; each one with its own unique twist.
Every chapter tells a tale, with inspiration drawn from sources as
diverse as a 200-year-old royal banquet menu, an intriguing
17th-century chocolate kitchen commissioned by William III and
Queen Victoria's highland retreat. Gingerbread soldiers in sentry
boxes, striking raspberry swirl meringues, miniaturised cream
scones, cacao nib nuggets and warm salmon tartlets are just a few
of the teatime temptations. Written by the Former Personal Chef to
TRH the Prince and Princess of Wales.
