A crucial companion for the keen cook who wants the best ingredients — fresh, organic and local, if possible — in season. Unless you are a farmer, grower or food expert, your knowledge of what’s in season and when is probably pretty slim. Despite a renaissance in home cooking, together with a rediscovery of local produce through farmers’ markets, many of us are missing some crucial ingredients. Seasonal Food is the book that tells you what to look for, what to buy, when to buy it and even how to cook it in order to eat the best that you can eat. Seasonal Food covers not only seasonality — fruits and vegetables, meat and fish and other seasonally-influenced produce such as cheeses but also recipes and preparation suggestions. This easy-to-use guide gives the reader the story behind seasonality to broaden our knowledge of food and its cyclical quality.

I am sure this will be useful for 3rd year studies, may use it at home for myself.

pretty good
Not quite what I expected. I was hoping for a more universal/global seasonal book. Still pretty good though, it'll come in handy regardless.

Brilliant little book
If you’re expecting a recipe book, this is not the book for you. However, if you want to know what’s best in what season, plus some of the whys and wherefores of food choices for given months, some celebrations linked to food and some of the culture and history of the food in question then you will really enjoy this book. It’s a great addition to the cookbook collection as it tells you what’s in season, what’s new, what’s going out and when best to eat (string beans should be in the earlier months to be less stringy!) There is an occasional recipe to highlight the food which is also useful. Like rhubarb, being a vegetable, can be used in savoury dishes and not just always served in a crumble with custard.
