BBC Books - $65.00 - Hardback
In Rick Stein’s latest culinary adventure he embarks on a series of
weekends in search of good food, lovely wine and brilliant recipes.
In his new book, Rick Stein’s Long Weekends,
Rick inspires in two ways: as a travel guide, to go out and discover these
wonderful places yourself, but equally to make time to have a long weekend at
home to cook for family and friends. The recipes are divided by day of the
weekend — quick and easy for a Friday night supper — Mussels with Bayonne ham
to Danish Fish Frikadeller with remoulade; substantial Saturday brunches and
lunches — Huevos a la Flamenca to Constantinople artichoke stew; some
substantial Saturday evening entertaining including — Halibut Soup with cream,
apple and dill to Cote de Boeuf and Meringue with zabaglione semi fredo,
followed by Sunday lunch and dinners — Squid Souvlaki and Navarin of lamb. And
no weekend would be complete without some coffee and teatime treats – Pateis de
nata to Berliner Doughnuts.
Rick Stein’s Long Weekends will
accompany the second half of the BBC TV series on Prime, screening dates yet to
be announced in NZ. The book includes stunning location photography from around Europe, following in Rick’s footsteps.
