Simply Slow Cooking

Slow cooking is the culinary equivalent of stopping to smell the roses. During the week, most of us opt for a quick and easy evening meal, but the weekend should be celebrated with a complete change of pace. This is when we have the chance to enjoy a special meal that can be prepared at leisure or left to slowly cook itself to tender perfection. Whether you are cooking for yourself, or for family or friends, you will find something to inspire in this collection of traditional and modern recipes, including appetizers, oven-baked meals, stovetop stews, side dishes, and luscious sweets. So take pleasure in the preparation, and while your meal cooks, and the flavors develop, relax and enjoy the delicious aromas coming from the kitchen. In Simply Slow Cooking Joanne Glynn has cooked a selection of favorite recipes from her own collection and those of fellow slow cooking devotees. The delectable food is complemented by Mary Harris's styling using beautiful antiques and Alan Benson's superb, atmospheric photography.
