European Peasant Cookery


A great book for the parsimonious: Elisabeth Luard's bible of kitchen thrift derives from traditions where the only part of an animal that's ever wasted is the moo / oink / squawk.

It also ticks the 'seasonal' and 'local' food boxes for those who are concerned about such things, since the essence of peasant cooking is making the best use of whatever ingredients are to hand.
