SALADS (HARDIE GRANT)

Two cookbooks filled with elegant, concise modern recipes for foods which never fail to satisfy. Salads looks at key elements such as grains, pulses, meat, fish, fruit, vegetables, sauces and dressings, and shows how an understanding of how flavours and textures combine can lead to a hearty meal as much as a side dish. Toast examines tartines, open sandwiches, bruschetta, canapes and more, and provides delicious toppings from classic cheese and ham to combinations such as grilled cuttlefish and creamed peppers.
