The Hebridean Baker : My Scottish Island Kitchen
by Coinneach Macleod
 
The landscapes, stories, history and culture of the Outer Hebrides of Scotland are what make our islands unique. In this book, I'm sharing recipes filled with tradition, Scottish flavors and local ingredients that you will love to make in your kitchen, from hearty dishes and comforting desserts to delicious cakes and perfect biscuits to dunk in your tea!
The book is jam-packed with the stories behind the recipes; some I've found in my much-loved old cookbooks, others I've persuaded friends and family to share, as well as lots of new recipes which put a twist on a classic dish. So, get the oven on and choose your first recipe!
