The Gannet’s Gastronomic Miscellany

‘“The Gannet” noses out the hidden stories about food – the unusual, the quirky, the unexpected, the personal.’ – Diana Henry

‘“The Gannet” is a charming observer of food being eaten, prepared and thought about. A joy.’ – Fergus Henderson, St John

The Gannet’s Gastronomic Miscellany goes beyond the usual food fixations. Presented in a fresh, visually inventive style, it will appeal to anyone with a passing interest in food – which, in this gastronomy-obsessed age, is pretty much all of us.

In this compendious hotpot of a book you’ll find a guide to creating a hit food profile on Instagram, a cross-section of a tiffin box, an explainer on craft beer, the origin story of chicken Marengo, a list of millennia-old products that are still edible today (should you be brave enough to try Irish bog butter or Ancient Egyptian honey) and many more delightful nuggets of information.
