Signed by Hugh, this title provides a generous blend of recipes, projects, history and science. It will be enjoyed by everyone who appreciates good food, home cooking and communal eating.
Hugh commented that "Fizz Carr and I share the view that there are no really good cookbooks for the whole family to use together. It is our immodest intention to write a classic of this genre."
"The River Cottage Family Cookbook aims to inspire all generations of the family to discover (or rediscover) the fun of cooking and eating together. It also hopes to encourage children of eight and over to cook their own food, and to set them on the road to taking a lifetimes pleasure in real food."

This title is signed by Hugh and aims to help you find good meat, understand it better, cook it with more confidence, and eat it with much pleasure. It first covers the basics - everything you'll need to know about choosing the best raw materials, understanding the different cuts and the cooking techniques associated with each of them.
Winner of the 2004 Andre Simon Memorial Fund Book Awards.
"The best new book of the year without a shadow of a doubt, a serious treatise, a meat cookery bible and a supremely appetising recipe collection. Fearnley-Whittingstall is our most important and eloquent food writer today." Philippa Davenport, Financial Times
'Thumpingly enormous, extremely good, and manages to be at once a recipe collection, a series of tutorials on the principles of cooking, a directory of organic suppliers, a philosophical essay, a timely report on the state of intensive farming and a forceful polemic' Sam Leith, Daily Telegraph, 1 May 2004.

Ordinarily the word "lifestyle" is more likely to be applied to slender magazine articles puffing lofts full of Eames furniture rather than books about smallholdings in Dorset. The River Cottage Cookbook, however, is a hefty 450 pages of pure, gumbooted rural lifestyle; and one could not wish it shorter.
