The Seasonal Pantry

"Introduces an appealing repertoire of fresh, colourful, zero-waste homemade dishes... combines organic garden produce with a sustainable perspective." —Foreword Reviews

75 recipes cover a range of seasonal dishes as well as pantry essentials for eating all year round and avoiding any kind of waste.

In The Seasonal Pantry, French artisan baker Benoît Castel shares recipes that respect the seasons as well as your budget. This simple and seasonal approach to cooking reduces waste: every crumb of leftover bread is used, and apples are consumed to the core.

Inside, you'll find a collection of homemade recipes to make simple meals you can save and savour throughout the year:

• Vegetables from the garden (pickled carrots, aubergine caviar, tomato sauce)
• Fruits from the orchard (apricot jam, pear caramel syrup, apple sauce)
• Condiments made from cereals, dried fruit, and grains (mustard, pesto, salted dried fruit)
• Milk and plant-based dairy products (almond milk, yogurt, raspberry butter)
• Easy to dress doughs (pie crusts, quiches, profiteroles)
• Leftover bread preparations (biscotti, croutons)
