Pork Pies & The Perfect Pickle second Edition

Pork Pies & The Perfect Pickle

A Taste of Home Wherever You Are

For the British expats who lie awake dreaming of a proper pork pie. For the home cooks who want a steak and kidney pudding that actually tastes like Sunday dinner. For anyone who has stood in an Australian supermarket aisle wondering where all the real food went.

This is that book, now in its second edition.

Written by Linda Davey, a Bristol-born cook who has spent over a decade building a British comfort food business from her kitchen in Perth, Western Australia, this collection brings together the recipes she grew up with and the ones she has spent years perfecting for people who miss the same things she does. Proper pork pies with hot water crust pastry. Pickles and preserves made the old way. Puddings, pies, cakes, and Sunday roasts, right through to Christmas and entertaining. The food that means home.

This edition has been completely redesigned inside and out, with colour-coded chapters, more photography throughout, and the same recipes tested and cooked again and again, written the way you'd actually use them in your own kitchen, with the stories behind them told the way Linda would tell you over a cup of tea.

These aren't trend-chasing recipes dressed up for a photograph. Whether you grew up with this food and miss it, or you're cooking it for the first time, this book is an invitation back to the table.
