Leeman, Andrea (text) : Morris, Stephen (photographs):
A Taste of Somerset, fine food and recipes.
Publisher: Bristol, Redcliffe Press Ltd., 2004 (1st Edition).
111pp with col. and b/w photo illus plus map index. "Somerset, one Britain's most beautiful counties, produces some of the finest food and drink. Andrea Leeman, food writer and former Chelsea restauranteur, took time out to explore the county to find the best that Somerset can offer. She was accompanied by Stephen Morris, whose photographs complement the text. Ranging from Bath to the coast, and from the Mendips to the uniquely flat landscape of the Somerset Levels, they met some of the people responsible for the county's varied produce, from cheeses, fruits and cider to smoked eel, asparagus, even water buffalo. Whether continuing a long family tradition, or striking out afresh and risking all to follow their instincts, all had one thing in common - a dedication to producing top quality food under natural conditions. The 28 recipes which accompany these profiles area wonderful mix of dishes that the author cooks at home and that allow good ingredients to speak for themselves. They adhere to season and simplicity, following the current healthy interest shown by consumers to source the best local produce. These mouth-watering offerings include the irresistible-sounding Nordic Maudie's Tomato and Orange Soup, Roasted Pumpkin Puree and the strangely-named Eton Mess. Most of the suppliers featured in this book welcome visitors ; a map shows where to find them. The book also lists stockists and farmers' markets."
