There’s nothing better to cheer up a cold winter’s day than warming colourful Middle Eastern food. This collection of 150 recipes are easy to follow and authentic, all inspired by three generation of family traditions.

4. The Modern Preserver: Chutneys, Pickles, Jams and More

Preserving is an ancient technique which is well suited to the winter months. The Modern Preserver takes you through every aspect of preserving: from classic chutneys and jams, through pickles and fermentation, to cordials and compotes.

Preserving is an ancient technique which speaks to a modern sensibility. It puts you in step with the seasons, you can use up leftovers, and it helps you rediscover a timeless kitchen craftsmanship – all aspirations of the thoughtful modern cook.

5. Where Bartenders Drink 

Following on from the coveted (and one of my favourites) Where Chefs Eat, this book takes 300 expert bartenders and spills their secrets, resulting in 750 recommended spots spread across 60 countries. Venues range from late-night establishments and legendary hotel bars to cosy neighbourhood 'locals'. This makes the perfect gift for foodies who love to travel...and drink!
