Description
Oats in the North, Wheat from the South is a guided tour of Great Britain's baking heritage. Each of the timeless recipes is accompanied by stories of the landscape, legends, and traditions of Great Britain, from Saffron cake, Cornish pasties, Welsh Bara brith, Shrewsbury cakes, and Isle of Wight doughnuts to tarts, oatcakes, gingerbreads, traditional loaves, buns, and bread rolls such as Aberdeen butteries and Kentish huffkins.
Regula Ysewijn shows us how the diverse climate of the British Isles influenced the growth of cereal crops and the development of a rich regional baking identity. She explains how imports of spices, sugar, treacle, fortified wines, and citrus added flavour, colour, and warmth to a baking culture much adored and replicated all over the world.
