Porters English Cooking Bible is a unique celebration of the
fascinating heritage of English food and cooking. Classic recipes
with a contemporary twist are combined with origins, fascinating
facts and interesting anecdotes. The history of England is its
cooking. Successive invaders to English sores, Roman, Viking and
Norman, naturally introduced their own culinary traditions to the
native cuisine. The returning Crusaders introduced Arab influences
too, adding dried fruits and aromatic spices to both sweet and
savoury dishes. Other costly, new and luxurious foodstuffs, such as
sugar, almonds, and citrus fruits were also imported from exotic
lands in vast quantities in the Middle Ages. Such foods became the
newly fashionable status symbols of a rich and self-indulgent elite
and were used lavishly in the great feasts of the time. Many of
these recipes have survived through the centuries, frequently
undergoing intervention and adaptation to meet the tastes of a
particular era. English cuisine is not static but continues to
evolve and develop, incorporating new ingredients, ideas and
cooking methods along the way. Porters English Cooking Bible is a
unique celebration of the fascinating heritage of English food and
cooking. Classic recipes with a contemporary twist are combined
with origins, fascinating facts and interesting anecdotes.
