'We lolled in the sea until it was time to return for tea, another
of Mother's gastronomic triumphs. Tottering mounds of hot scones;
crisp paper-thin biscuits; cakes like snowdrifts, oozing jam; cakes
dark, rich and moist, crammed with fruit; brandy snaps brittle as
coral and overflowing with honey. Conversation was almost at a
standstill; all that could be heard was the gentle tinkle of cups,
and the heartfelt sigh of some guest, accepting another slice of
cake.' - My Family and Other Animals, Gerald Durrell In Dining with
the Durrells, David Shimwell has delved into the Durrell family
archives to uncover Louisa Durrell's original recipes for the
scones, cakes, jams, tarts, sandwiches and more that are so
deliciously described by the Durrell family. From her recipe for
'Gerry's Favourite Chicken Curry' to 'Dixie-Durrell Scones with Fig
and Ginger Jam', and including the family stories and photos that
accompany them, this book will transport you to long lunches
enjoyed on the terrace of a strawberry-pink villa, sunshine-filled
picnics among the Corfu olive groves and candlelit dinners
overlooking the Ionian Sea.
