Continuing where her hugely successful Voluptuous Delights left off, bestselling author Sophie Dahl offers up a seasonal almanac of bountiful dishes alongside warm food-filled memories and musings.
Taking a gastronomic journey through the seasons, from the Victoria Beeton era to a recent sodden Paris evening, Dahl captures the smoke filled days of autumn with a nostalgic Squash and Parmesan soup, the blooming warmth of an English garden in high summer with Grilled Peaches with Pistachios and Ricotta; and the burgeoning beginnings of spring with a Butter Lettuce, Lobster and Crayfish Salad.
Bursting with moreish yet nutritious recipes for budding foodies and seasoned gourmets alike, stunning photography and Sophie's delightfully quirky illustrations, this latest offering promises pleasure, indulgence and of course simple, good food.
Sophie Dahl began her career as a model, but writing was always her first love. In 2003 she wrote an illustrated novella called The Man with the Dancing Eyes, which was a Times bestselling book. This was followed by a novel, Playing with the Grown-Ups, published to widespread praise by Bloomsbury in 2007. Dahl is a contributing editor at British Vogue. She has also written for, amongst others, US Vogue, Waitrose Food Illustrated magazine, the Observer, the Guardian and the Saturday Times Magazine.
A devoted eater and cook, she wrote a book which chronicled her misadventures with food. Miss Dahl's Voluptuous Delights, published by HarperCollins in 2009, which was her second Times bestseller. Following on the success of Voluptuous Delights, Dahl wrote and presented a popular BBC2 six-part cooking series, The Delicious Miss Dahl, which was sold to numerous countries all over the world.
