Modern Recipes and Stories from a London Classic

&#39;A stunner.&#39; &ndash; Diana Henry&#39;Where I&#39;ll always want to be.&#39; &ndash; Marina O&#39;LoughlinThe Quality Chop House has stood proudly on the corner of Farringdon Road and Exmouth Market since 1869. It&rsquo;s been a working man&rsquo;s cafe, a &#39;90s celeb magnet and, for the last 7 years, one of London&rsquo;s best-known, best-loved restaurants, with its famous confit potatoes regularly topping lists of &lsquo;dishes you can&rsquo;t miss in London&rsquo; on websites across the globe. On any given night, you will find notables from London&#39;s food world propping up the bar or rummaging for bottles of wine in the shop next door.Every week, delicious produce arrives at the restaurant from all over the British Isles: produce which eventually ends up in dishes like pastrami-cured salmon, roast cod with trotter tortellini or beef mince on dripping toast. The cooking is deceptively simple but honed to perfection: behind each recipe is an accumulation of notes, seasoning tweaks and adjustments according to what might be in season. Learn the secret behind those famous potatoes, the timings behind a perfect Sunday roast and what really makes a sandwich.This is British cooking written with accessibility and precision, that will make itself at home in any kitchen.
