Gressingham

The Recipe Book

de Katie Fisher, Phil Turner, Rebecca Alderton

Gressingham is synonymous with duck, and this book marks a special moment in time as it celebrates 50 years of the family business that was founded by the Miriam and Maurice Buchanan in 1971. With a comprehensive overview on how to cook duck, the history of the business and over 70 recipes, it's the definitive culinary guide to duck, featuring classic canard dishes such as Duck a l'Orange and confit duck, poultry twists on dishes such as paella and chilli con carne as well as a dedicated chapter of Asian duck recipes including crispy aromatic duck pancakes and duck and pak choi noodles. And although it's duck that is at the centre of the Gressingham business and therefore at the heart of the book, there are also other poultry and game dishes included here, such as Guinea fowl breast with confit potatoes, garlic and parsley and thyme, Zesty roast spatchcock poussin as well as a classic Christmas turkey recipe.
