A new cookbook is promising a raft of new recipes featuring peppers, as well as documenting the history of UK production.
Published by Redshank Books on behalf of the Pepper Technology Group, the book features recipes written by food writers, chefs, culinary experts and institutions such as the British Heart Foundation. The contributing editor is former FPJ writer Elizabeth O'Keefe.
'The Great British Pepper Cookbook is a pepper education in itself and much more than a cookbook,' O'Keefe said. 'We take you right to the start of the vegetable's journey in Britain, with detailed accounts of how the pepper industry started - over 35 years ago now - and introduce you to the way UK growers produce 28 million tonnes of peppers a year, through interviews with the growers themselves.
'And then, of course, we go through every which way to cook the many different types of peppers, as well as providing cookery tips across pastry making, stocks and soups, baking and roasting. It's everything you ever need to know about peppers and how to cook them - there's so much more to peppers than just stuffing them.'
The Great British Pepper Cookbook will be available in book stores, supermarkets and on Amazon in paperback and ebook formats from late October.
