Enlarged edition with twenty-five years of Farm Journal's best recipes.

A beautiful collection of seasonal country recipes Let The Country Cookbook transport you to a simpler place and time: a place where neighbors leave boxes of surplus vegetables on the doorstep, winter provides an excuse to make a pie with the windfall apples, and there's time for a cup of tea and a slice of homemade cake. Inspired by the bountiful produce at her local farmers' markets, Belinda Jeffery chronicles the changing seasons and shares the recipes that punctuate her days. Whether you want to make a platter of fragrant Thai prawn cakes to go with drinks, some comforting slow-cooked lamb shanks with harissa, or a last-minute Christmas cake, The Country Cookbook will bring a taste of the country into your kitchen--and into your life.

The three top reasons why someone would need a farm journal cookbooks are: 1. they contain recipes that are tested over time and may go back over one hundred years; 2. they make wonderful gifts for people such at Christmas and birthdays; 3. farm journal cookbooks are a form of this country's nostalgic past. We like nostalgia.
