Seasonal Salads, by food writer Fi Buchanan, and companion book to best-seller Seasonal Soups, will be published by Kitchen Press in January 2023.
Packed with 52 delicious recipes, one for every week of the year, ‘Salads can be anything you want them to be’ says writer Buchanan. Each recipe features Fi’s trademark inventive flair and ability to combine flavours and textures in the cleverest of ways, which make the most of what’s plentiful in each season.
Each recipe is 100% vegetarian, with helpful recommendations of protein additions, and are ordered by month for full seasonality. The recipes are interspersed with beautiful photography and hand drawn illustrations. From quick weeknight throw-togethers to dinner party-worthy showstoppers, there’s something for every occasion.
Amongst the salads included are:
Winter: Roasted Mushrooms with Spelt, Walnuts and Spicy Greens / Roasted Sweet Potatoes with Chermoula
Spring: Seared Hispi with Cherries and Smoked Almonds /Quick Pickled Carrots with Whipped Ricotta and Garlicky Breadcrumbs
Summer: Courgettes with Hazelnuts and Pistou / Mango, Coriander and Cous Cous Salad
Autumn: Wild Rice, Bramble, and Pistachio/ Sesame Miso Aubergine Salad
