Book description
In his outstanding new cookbook, Gordon Ramsay teams up with Mark
Sargeant to showcase the best of British cooking. Packed full of
sumptuous and hearty traditional recipes, Gordon Ramsay's Great British
Pub Food is perfect for relaxed, homely and comforting cooking.
Pubs were once a place where you could always guarantee good, simple,
cheap food and a great Sunday roast, but when the steak houses and fast
food chains arrived the good home cooking from the pub kitchens was
replaced with tasteless, defrosted meals. Then came the gastropubs,
which weren't much better, serving mediocre food at restaurant prices.
That's why when Gordon Ramsay and Mark Sargeant set up the Gordon
Ramsay pubs in London they wanted to produce the sort of simple but
delicious British classics that warm the cockles of your heart and to
serve them at affordable pub prices. Dishes like rich, hearty Chicken
and Smoked Bacon Pie, mouth-watering Gloucestershire Sausages with
Grainy Mustard Mash and Red Onion Marmalade and indulgent Treacle Tart -
classics that have stood the test of time.
Now Gordon has gathered his favourite British recipes into one
sumptuous collection so you can invite your friends round, serve some
good, English ale and cook the best in traditional pub food classics in
your own home. 'With purse-friendly ingredients and easy-to-follow
recipes, this is perfect for anyone trying to eat in more.'
