Audrey Gordon’s Tuscan Summer
Join Audrey Gordon, voted three times Britain’s sternest chef, as she travels to the heart of Italy and shares the recipes, produce and memories of her Tuscan summer. Visit traditional farmhouses, local trattorias and sample the stunning range of local produce on offer as Audrey shares the sights, sounds and occasionally, smells, of regional Italy. Then sample these delights at home with the range of delicious and easy to make recipes that Audrey, inspired by Italian traditions, has created for the home cook. This book is not directed at celebrity super chefs or haute cuisine high flyers dazzling diners in their Michelin starred restaurants. It’s written for you, the ordinary cook, stuck at home with insufficient bench space and a set of chipped mixing bowls. Audrey’s fervent hope is that it will inspire you, give you the confidence to believe that you can be a wonderful cook or, at very least, an adequate one. 'This book is not meant to be a monologue. I want you to imagine I'm there in the kitchen with you, helping, guiding, prodding and – only occasionally – wrapping your knuckles with the handle of an egg whisk.' xx Audrey
