Take two good friends - one a newspaper food editor and the other a top caterer - and ask them to share a collection of recipes from their cherished kitchen notebooks. Within these pages you'll find classic baking recipes, perfect for treating the family or entertaining guests; leisurely lunches to savour in good company; memorable picnic fare; elegant dinner dishes plus desserts to die for; ideas for barbecues; suppers to linger over on cold winter nights; and finally - a selection of preserves to make the most of the season's bounty.
At its heart, this is a celebration of fresh, simple, seasonal food.
