Description
Gammon is a great, versatile meat, but for too long has been consigned to the festive season when it could be enjoyed all year round. Often people don't think beyond traditional 'gammon and pineapple' or 'gammon and egg' but actually, it is a meat that can be cooked in many ways and combined with a wealth of ingredients. This lavish new cookbook opens the door to some exciting new tastes combining gammon with modern contemporary flavours. Many of Britain's top chefs have contributed to this book to produce such irresistible fare as Phil Vickery's Crispy Gammon Strips with Sesame Oil Dressing or Brian Turner's Gammon Steak with Mustard and Sage Crust.
