I was thrilled to receive an early copy of Sarah Rankin's latest book Feast: Recipes That Bring Joy. It is filled with almost 100 recipes and over 15 different menus to help you cater for any kind of occasion. As well as a seasonality chart of fruit, vegetables, seafood, and game. Ahead of launching on 2nd October, here is a glimpse into FEAST.
Feast: Recipes That Bring Joy. The Latest Book From Sarah Rankin Review
Feast is well laid out, with beautiful colour photographs, easy-to-follow recipes for holidays, celebrations, and family gatherings, or just those intimate evenings with friends.
The recipes can of course, be enjoyed individually rather than as part of a larger menu, with inspiration taken from across the globe in dishes such as turmeric shakshuka, partridge tacos, and black olive fudge. Each menu also includes a perfectly paired drink from tipples such as apple mallow whisky to teetotal refreshers like Middle-Eastern-inspired limonana.
The book also has some loved firm family favourites pizza and affogato!
Not sure where to start Sarah has you covered in The Feeder's Larder. Detailing everything you'll need for a well-stocked larder, including baking, condiments, jars and cans, vinegars, noodles, nuts, and seeds plus lots more. If like me you're not confident in the kitchen, don't fret. Jump into the section Tips, Temps, and Tools where Sarah goes into how almost no dish is not redeemable. There are so many delicious-sounding recipes, I don't know which one to try first. So excited to dive in. Which one will you try first?
