Synopsis

'You could cook non-stop from this book for, indeed, a year, without ever getting bored! With over 200 recipes, and with an expansive flavour palette, it is a boon for those in a cooking rut.' Nigella Lawson

'this book is very timely... and there are so many wantable dishes here... Among the dishes calling me are sausage and fennel focaccia rolls; squash baked with beer, cheese, cream and pretzels; and cherry Bakewell pudding.' Diana Henry, Telegraph

What a beauty... imaginative, appealing recipes grounded in good sense... you can taste the experience, that these are lived recipes.' Rachel Roddy

'the one cook book you really need this autumn is this practical work from the ever-inventive Thomson' Independent

'One of my tests of how much I am excited by a new cookbook is how many recipes I feel driven to mark with a Post-It note. With Home Cookery Year I suddenly realised I was Post-It noting nearly every page.' Bee Wilson

The Home Cookery Year is the new essential kitchen bible, year-round and every day. Claire Thomson writes foolproof, imaginative recipes to please the whole family - as a professional chef and mum of three, she understands what it's like to whip up tasty, crowd-pleasing dishes in minimal time at the end of a busy working day.
