Recipes Inspired by the Champions of Good Food.
Rick Stein has always encouraged us to think carefully about the food we eat, to seek out the best-quality ingredients and to cook them simply. In 'Food Heroes', he travels around Britain, searching out the best of all British produce, from bread to beer and Iamb to cheese. He meets the suppliers who emerge as true heroes of the industry, putting the importance of quality and taste above profit.
'Food Heroes' contains over 100 recipes as well as a list of the suppliers that Rick met and recommends. In addition to a host of brand new recipes including Smoked Duck Breast Salad with New Potatoes and Fresh Raspberry Tart with Hazelnut and Coconut Pastry, Rick includes his own variations on more traditional dishes, such as The Definitive Welsh Rarebit.
Rick Stein's 'Food Heroes' is both an inspirational collection of recipes and a delightful celebration of British ingredients and those who create them.
