If you are looking for a Christmas present for someone who appreciates beautiful cookbooks, I have the answer: Madalene Bonvini-Hamel’s A Cookbook For All Seasons.

Madalene, chef and co-owner of The British Larder at Bromeswell, near Woodbridge, has already gained a fabulous reputation. Her website is an inspirational recipe diary designed to inspire creativity and passion. Her first cookery book is a natural progression.

From the book is her recipe for Jerusalem Artichoke and Walnut Pithiviers with Cranberry and Port Sauce.
