Over the centuries, Britain's dairymaids have played a vital role in producing the ingredients for the dining table--cheese, butter, cream, and eggs. The authors look at the work traditionally undertaken by the dairymaid, then offer mouthwatering recipes for dairy-inspired dishes--Welsh Buttermilk Griddle Pancakes, Chilled Cucumber Mousse, Smoked Trout with Horseradish Cream Sauce, Devon Chicken and Parsley Pie, and Bread and Butter Pudding, to name but a few. In the second part of the book, the authors move to the ice house, explaining in simple terms how to make ices without resorting to complex machinery. Summon up ice creams flavored with saffron, cinnamon, or Seville oranges; try herb sorbets to freshen the palate--or for a wonderfully decadent finish, liqueur parfaits. A delightful collection of recipes, well-seasoned with fascinating historical lore.

The English country pottery: its history and techniques

David and Charles

The collector's book of English country pottery

David&Charles

<p>The history of handmade earthen-wares and the techniques used in making them are absorbing subjects for the collector and for anyone interested in local industries past and present. Many local potteries still produce goods for a local market-even using local materials. The growth and decline of the many craft potteries that have operated in England from medieval times until today are here discussed, and a full picture of the development of the pottery industry and of its techniques over the last 500 years emerges.Much original research is incorporated, including the first classification of the little-known wares of the late fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, and a reconsideration of the development of the English slipware tradition and of the rise of the Staffordshire potteries.The full technical account of the craft is drawn not only from documentary sources but also from discussions recorded with country potters working today. A comprehensive gazetteer of the majority of the craft potteries that have worked in England 'since 1500 is added, with lists of potting terms and of local names, for the different forms of pottery vessels.</p>
