Jane Grigson's English Food

Product Information

Never did I expect to be nominated for the award, let alone win it. It was quite the surreal experience, my first award for something I have worked so hard and passionately on. The award wasn’t just for me, but it felt like my two countries and cultures (Oman & Zanzibar) were also winning. Sharing such an underrepresented cuisine and to see the judges fall in love and see it worthy of such an award made me realise how much my mission to put Omani food on the map is still so important. The award is opening new doors and will hopefully help my book Bahari flourish when it comes out in February 2024. Thank you to everyone involved in the award and for believing in me and Oman!“ Now in its ninth year, the Jane Grigson Trust Award has supported and celebrated many debut food and drink writers whose books have subsequently been published to great acclaim.

The Jane Grigson Award is an award issued by the International Association of Culinary Professionals (IACP). It honours distinguished scholarship and depth of research in cookbooks and is named in honour of the British cookery writer Jane Grigson. [1]Madame Glon lived in great simplicity next door to Jane and Geoffrey in Trôo and used to look after the cave for them when they weren't there. My mother also tried to mess around with this recipe (apples, onions etc), but nothing ever tasted better than the original. A firm favourite in our house, and good with mashed potatoes. Ingredients This recipe is a family favourite. I’m not sure I would have discovered it if we hadn’t had a glut of quinces on our tree a few years ago and were casting around for ‘ways to use up quinces’. It is completely delicious and simple but it is one of Jane’s less discursive recipes, buried amid a whole host of quince recipes (of how many cook books can you say that?). I’d love to have known more about Isaac Newton’s love for quinces – and, given the size of them, one can only speculate what might have happened had a quince fallen upon his head … (Note - baked quince was Sir Isaac Newton's favourite pudding) Ingredients Betty Fussell, The Story of Corn: The Myths and History, the Culture and Agriculture, the Art and Science of America's Quintessential Crop
