Denis Cotter’s acclaimed collection of superb vegetarian recipes and evocative tales is now available in paperback. This work explores our relationship with the land and the vegetables we consume through a personal journey with Denis, who shares his passion for food. He takes us into muddy fields and introduces us to dedicated growers of exceptional produce. With heartfelt and charming prose, he informs and entertains, turning the excitement of robust blackberry jam into a passionate call to explore the countryside, while the sight of high-trailing borlotti beans sparks a discussion on artisan growing's future. Denis seeks a deeper connection between food, people, and land, teaching readers how to forage for mushrooms, wild greens, and sloes, as well as how to cook asparagus and tackle artichokes. The book is divided into four themed chapters: 'It's a Green Thing', 'Wild Pickings', 'A Passionate Pursuit', and 'Growing in the Dark', each filled with anecdotes and delicious recipes. From simple salads and soups to more challenging main dishes and desserts, recipes include Fresh Pasta with Abyssinian Cabbage, Courgette Flower Risotto, and Grilled Portobello Mushrooms. Stunning images of landscapes, food, and finished recipes enhance this delightful read and unique cookbook.
A Paradiso Year represents Denis Cotter's personal journal through the Autumn and Winter seasons, focussing on his favourite vegetables at their prime moment and, from them, creating sumptuous and thoughtful recipes.
