Description

Take a seat at the Regency dining table and share food enjoyed by Jane Austen’s much loved fictional characters, written by Sunday Times bestseller Pen Vogler.

Inspired by the novels and letters of Jane Austen, this collection of recipes is based on authentic recipes from the Regency era, which have been fully updated for modern-day cooks and are taken from the author's original book, Dinner with Mr Darcy with a renewed focus on the dinner parties that featured in Austen's novels.

Menus featured include Mrs Bennet’s Dinner to Impress (from Pride & Prejudice), An Old-fashioned Supper for Mr Woodhouse and his Guests (from Emma) and Christmas with the Musgroves (from Persuasion).

The book includes menus for lighter fare, such as Fresh Pea Soup, Baked Sole and Everlasting Syllabub, to the indulgent Roast Leg of Mutton Stuffed with Oysters followed by Buttered Apple Tart. The original recipes are given alongside, so you can compare them and appreciate modern time-savers all the more!
