LEMONS
The lemon is an essential cooking ingredient — its sharply fragrant juice and tangy rind is added to sweet and savoury dishes in every cuisine.
This enchanting book offers a wonderful array of recipes celebrating this intensely flavoured fruit.
There are soups from Greece and Thailand, and a classic French hollandaise sauce in which lemon juice is the vital ingredient. Fish dishes, both traditional and more unusual, marry wonderfully with lemon juice, and there are several to choose from here. In a minty Middle Eastern salad whole lemon is used, and rind, juice and whole slices also add zing to a chicken stir-fry and herbed rice cake.
Finally, in the last chapter on cakes and desserts, lemons show their true
versatility. The recipes include wonderfully lemony breads, tarts, biscuits and cakes along with the classic Lemon Meringue Pie and a
fabulous Lemon Cheesecake.
Each recipe in Lemons has a colour photograph to inspire the cook. There are lots of hints and tips, with easy-to-follow steps showing techniques and
preparation. The exquisite illustrations make the book both a delight to browse through and a pleasure to use.
