The Changing Tides: As seen on SUNDAY BRUNCH

by Roberta Hall-McCarron, Helen Glassford (Cover)

Celebrate the best of spring with Asparagus and Roast Chicken Hollandaise or Trout and Spring Vegetable Galette, or imagine summer feasting tables laid with Lamb Rack, Labneh and Sweetheart Cabbage and Chilled Rice Pudding. The gamey flavours of autumn include Mallard Rillettes and Whole Roasted Partridge, and as the nights draw in for winter, turn to Roberta’s signature Braised Beef and Caramelised Onion Pie or her Chocolate Fudge Cake of dreams, served with malt chocolate custard.

The cover image for this edition was painted by Helen Glassford, capturing the essence of seasonal and vibrant beauty.

+4.5 stars just because I’ve not tried any of the recipes in the book yet (contains spoilers)

Roberta Hall is one of the best chefs in Scotland and her book is a wonderful intro into her creativity and love for Scottish produce, merged into down to Earth recipes for people to make and eat at home.

Love that every season starts with an oyster recipe and ends with a full menu for a seasonal party.

And she’s sharing simple recipes for basics, from pickling and curing liquids to sweet and ruff puff pastry, mayo or stocks.

This feels like the staple modern cookbook for a Scottish home and everyone else who is keen to try and explore the fresh, beautiful ingredients of the country.
