**SHORTLISTED FOR THE ANDRE SIMON PRIZE 2017**

'Beautiful recipes deeply rooted in time and place - my favourite sort of food. Certain to become often used in my kitchen'
Anna Jones

A cookbook that celebrates seasonal eating, and the landscapes that produce it, from the co-founder of the lifestyle brand Toast.

Gather, Cook Feast celebrates the connection between the food that we eat and the land where we live, in over 120 recipes. A seasonal feast of British food, Jessica Seaton is inspired by the food from our seas, our rivers, our farmland, our gardens and our wild places. Full of simple, seasonal and nourishing recipes like braised shortribs with horseradish, courgette fritters with minted yoghurt, mackerel escabeche with wild fennel and kale, and roast vegetable and barley salad with crisped artichokes, alongside puddings, preserves and cakes such as bay and bramble jelly pots, apple and walnut soft cake and rose macaroons, this is a book full of recipes to savour, to share, and to sustain.
