The Honey Cookbook
RRP £6.99

Your price £4.99

This is a cookbook to celebrate the versatility of that wonderful sweetener, honey, which has been used in cooking since ancient times.
Included in this cookbook are more than 180 delicious honey recipes from starters, supper dishes, salad dressings and sauces to puddings, breads, cakes, biscuits, and drinks. Puddings include mouth- watering ice-creams, among them watermelon and raspberry cream ice, redcurrant and honey ice-cream and passion fruit ice-cream; and many more irresistible desserts which range from poached peaches with mascarpone and blackcurrant kissel to toffee crunch honey pudding, Athol Brose and honey crème caramel.
The recipes in this book are healthy, using honey to sweeten rather than sugar, and the ingredients are wholesome and nutritious. It is amazing what a valuable ingredient honey is, enhancing the  flavour of so many foods and adding a new dimension to cooking.
