WEST OF IRELAND SUMMERS: A COOKBOOK is a celebration of food. In this vivid account of summers spent in the remote beauty of the west of Ireland Tamasin Day-Lewis rekindles the sights, sounds, smells and, above all, the tastes of her family holidays since childhood. Tamasin Day-Lewis's passion for cooking is evident in more than 100 dishes; some traditional Irish recipes, some recapturing the tastes of her childhood and others created by Tamasin herself. These combined with stunning photographs and a lively text make this a truly irresistable cookery book.

GOOD TEMPERED FOOD is quiet, unhurried, unchaotic cooking to be savoured with its natural accompaniments - conversation, music and a glass of wine. This is old-fashioned, slow cooking - the food we love to eat and cook with a new way to think about it. Preparation, marinating, half-cooking it before time, and adding the last minute touches without feeling stressed. It is what proper cooking is all about. 'This is one of those books that I suspect will never leave my kitchen. I want to eat everything in this book.' Nigel Slater

Pies are the business. You can dress them up or dress them down. Make them classic or modern, savoury or sweet, shroud them in butter crisp pastry or top them with creamy potato. Eat them hot, warm or cold, with a scoop of cream, a slug of vanilla custard, a dollop of creme fraiche. You can fold the fruit in, tuck the crust under, build up the layers. No food comforts and nurtures like a proper home-made pie. Tamasin's selection includes classic savoury pies like Chicken Pie, Egg and Bacon Pie, the Cornish Pasty, an Italian Easter Pie with eggs and artichokes, la Torta di Zucchini, a Galician Pork and Sausage Pie, Koulibiac, the traditional Russian Salmon Pie, and a delicate Feta, Rice and Yoghurt Pie. Sweet pies include a section on apple pies, a Sugar-topped Cherry Pie, Raspberry Ripple Ice-cream Pie, Shaker Lemon Pie, Peach Pie, Southern Pecan Pie, Key Lime Pie, Mississippi Mud Pie and Blueberry Pie.

The Art of the Tart

The marriage of textures and flavours, colours and aromas make tarts the most satisfying of foods to make and eat. Tarts, tourtes, quiches, tartelettes, the myriad variants of both form and content, are celebrated in this collection of ninety tarts for all seasons and all occasions. Classical, historical and modern tarts are all included, as are the childhood experiences of making jam tarts, eating them bubbling hot from the oven and invariably searing one's mouth in the haste to devour them. The Doucet Tart, enjoyed by Chaucer and the court of Henry IV, with its intoxicating marriage of honey and saffron, will surprise even the most sophisticated palate, as will the rich, delicate perfection of Tamasin's Souffled Crab Tart and the ambrosial Peach, Vanilla and Amaretti Tarte Tatin. From the most classic of tarts, the Quiche Lorraine and the Strawberry Tart, to the airy heights of a Tomato and Prosciutto Tart on a puff pastry base, anyone can bake a tart, and everyone will enjoy cooking their way through this book.

Most cooks long for an all-encompassing cookbook that will show how to make everything from a basic biscuit to a poached salmon, advise on different cuts of meat and types of potatoes, and explain how to rescue a split sauce along the way. This is that book. Tamasin's clear, concise and no fuss instructions lead the novice cook through those first, experimental recipes, giving confidence to progress to more sophisticated dishes. The student or cook on a budget will find a repertoire of economical recipes, and the experienced cook will find inspiration in the comprehensive classics and new favourites chapters. There is an entire chapter on Christmas with a timetable for Christmas day plus 35 recipes that will inspire you between Christmas and New Year.

Tamasin's Kitchen Bible

A classic dish is a thing of comfort and refinement - a dish that becomes part of family life. It's about taste and good ingredients, and it's neither too complicated nor too fussy. This is Tamasin's take on classic dishes from around the world. The classic French pork rillettes is made with mackerel, a tartare with tuna, a sea bass is baked with lemon grass and dill and brownies are made with dates and walnuts. She draws inspiration from her travels, a novel combination of ingredients, or simply the desire to experiment and go beyond tradition. Among the 100 new recipes are Cheese Straws, Clam Chowder, Roasted Beetroot and Dill Soup, Saltimbocca, Steak au poivre with Potatoes Lyonnaise, Wild Boar and Morel Stew, Duck with Grapes, Gratin of Spinach, Fig Sorbet, Raspberry Curd Tart, Blueberry Shortcake and Aunti Fei's Sour Cream Coffee Cake. TAMASIN'S KITCHEN CLASSICS reflects the tastes and experiences of our times - the best of the old, revised and revitalised, and the best of the new from near and far adapted to her family kitchen. These are the recipes everyone will ask for.

Where Shall We Go for Dinner?

'A scrumptious umpteen course gastromance. I gobbled every word.' Richard E. Grant Sharing a good dinner is one of the chief pleasures of life. This is a year of travel and culinary discovery, part memoir, part love story, but the glue that holds it together is food, a shared passion, if not obsession. Tamasin and her companion Rob set out with no real plan for the forthcoming year other than that each trip offers the possibility of perfection and discovery of something new. Whether investigating the food scene in San Francisco, sipping a cocktail in Venice, or walking down Sullivan St in New York to dine on fried chicken at the Blue Ribbon, they always set out in hope of the perfect dinner. They may find it at a small cafe in the hills of Santo Stefano Belbo in Piemonte, or snacking on falafel in a warm wad of pitta bread at Mamoun's, a hole in the wall in Greenwich Village. Sometimes they try too hard and don't find it at all, but even the disappointment is food for thought...and there is always tomorrow. Tamasin captures beautifully the sense of expectation and excitement, the atmosphere of each place and the shared pleasures of the table. This is a book to be savoured, enjoyed and lingered over.
