About the book:

Simply Seasonal is a vibrant, visual recipe guide inspired by nature’s endless bounties. Choosing to cook and eat seasonally places a fresh spotlight on what’s being produced in our immediate surroundings. It encourages us to buy local, making us aware of what smaller producers are offering in our neighbourhoods. Seasonal ingredients are given star status in the over 80 recipes, which range from starters to side dishes and from main courses to desserts. Each recipe is accompanied by a glorious full-colour photograph. Discover the seasons wherever you live and keep home cooking simple, local, joyful and unapologetically personal.
