2020 IBPA Awards Winner! The Official Downton Abbey Cookbook
presents over 100 recipes that showcase the cookery and customs of
the Crawley household--from upstairs dinner party centerpieces 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 rich 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. With a foreword by Gareth Neame, executive
producer and co-creator of Downton Abbey, and featuring over 100
stunning color photographs, The Downton Abbey Cookbook also
includes a special section on hosting Downton-themed dinner parties
and presents 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 vivid context for the dishes. The recipes are
grouped by occasion, which include breakfast; luncheons and
suppers; afternoon tea and garden parties; picnics, shoots and race
meets; festivities; upstairs dinner; downstairs dinner; downstairs
supper and tea; and the still room. From the upstairs menu: Cornish
Pasties Sausage Rolls Oysters au Gratin Chicken Vol-au-Vents
Cucumber Soup Soul a la Florentine Salmon Mousse Quail and
Watercress Charlotte Russe From the downstairs menu:
Toad-in-the-Hole Beef Stew with Dumplings Steak and Kidney Pie
Cauliflower Cheese Rice Pudding Jam and Custard Tarts Gingerbread
Cake Summer Pudding With these and more historic
recipes--compelling to a contemporary palate and easy to replicate
in today's kitchens--savor the rich traditions and flavors of
Downton Abbey without end.
