Sea & Shore: Recipes and Stories from a Kitchen in Cornwall (Host chef of 2021 G7 Summit)

Product Information

The Jersey Shore Cookbookoffers a piece of the shore right in the comfort of your own kitchen.”— The Ocean Star Australian Food by Bill Granger cookbook review What are the recipes like in Super Sourdough by James Morton?

So what did Joe Biden eat at that day that so entranced him at the G7 dinner at the Eden Project? Well, the menu for that day included Spiced Melon, Gazpacho, Coconut and high note herbs, for the starter, followed by a main of Turbot Roasted on the Bone with Cornish New Potatoes and Wild Garlic Pesto with Greens from local Padstow kitchen gardens. Food writing, discovering food stories, meeting producers, chefs and food enthusiasts are all part of desire to inspire, inform my readers and fellow food lovers. The book is split into three sections opening with her thoughts on Cornwall, and how she kits out her kitchen and essential recipes. The mid section holds the recipes split into seasonal outings – Winter Seas, Spring Tides and High Summer, and ending with a suppliers list and a short bio that brings us up to date with her move to lead the cooking at Watergate Bay Hotel.

I’m also intrigued by the section covering ancient grains where the bread is made from everything but bog standard white flour.

Place the ribbons of courgette into a bowl, add the chopped chilli and lemon zest, season with sea salt, and set aside. Sea & Shore brings together the coast, the ports, the harbours surrounding Emily’s home kitchen, through over 80 simple and delicious recipes. Taking you through ebbs and flows of the seasons; from Spring tides and Summer Seas to the Cornish Autumn, the choice of dishes sees Emily using the ingredients sourced from the sea and land surrounding her restaurant’s doorstep. She is head chef at the glamorous Watergate Bay Hotel, in surfer and visitors ‘down-from-London’ hotspot Newquay. The problem I have is that I can find similar recipes in my other cook books and I have parted with a lot of money for recipes which I have already got, and can find similar in food magazine clippings I have collected.Thoroughly ‘kitchen cook friendly’ in organization and presentation, The Jersey Shore Cookbookwill prove to be a treasured addition to any personal, family, or community library Regional Cookbook collection.”– Midwest Book Review But what about her cooking, and her new cookbook? Would I be interested in either or both of those had she not found herself in a global culinary and gastro-diplomacy spotlight? Early June was a busy time for Emily, for the book was only published the day before the G7 dinner. Many of the recipes in the book are seasonally focussed Place the strawberries and raspberries in a pan with the sugar, water and orange juice. Bring to the boil without stirring, then remove from the heat. With The Jersey Shore Cookbook, you can enjoy your favorite shore recipes all year long.”– Reading Eagle
