This is a love story between sugar and spice.Spice is often the party girl, the loud, bold, exuberant element in the mix. A generous swirl of woody-sweet cinnamon elevates a simple bun, pistachio green baklava is made otherworldly with the headiness of rosewater and a truly fiery gingerbread is thunder and wonder in the mouth. There is also another art, more subtle yet equally seductive. Married with sugar, spice can provide a delicate fragrance, hard to put your finger on but one that gives backbone to a dish. It can balance tartness and bring sweetness so you can tone down the sugar. Flavours can be enhanced by a thoughtful addition from the spice cupboard, making chocolate more chocolatey and fruit taste more of itself. Added not in shouts, but in whispers, an intrigue of spice deepens allure. In this book, we'll explore how to unlock flavours, and how to marry them to make much more than the sum of their parts.Floral and fruity spices pair well with rich fats. Warming spices like ginger and clove play off treacly brown sugar. Anise sweetens, lemony coriander seed brightens and herbaceous notes pick out complexity in chocolate. A suspicion of nutmeg cuts the sweet creaminess of custard for a more rounded tart, and a whisper of cardamom makes inky poached plums jaunty and interesting. The chapters are divided by flavour to guide you towards a dessert or bake that is bright and zippy, floral and fragrant, or dark and spicy. Recipes include spice switches so, as you develop a nose for the flavours, you can be creative and playful with your combinations.

- A multi-layered look at this essential wine, beautifully designed to bring the region to life on the page- Contributions from top Burgundy writers: Jasper Morris MW, Allan Meadows, Raymond Blake, Kermit Lynch, Jeannie Cho Lee MW, Hugh Johnson, Margaret Rand, Serena Sutcliffe and many more, including Evelyn Waugh- The fascinating history and Burgundy's place in the world today, and its aspirations for the future- Full of stories about the innovators and characters- Next in the series after On Champagne, one of 2023's wine books of the year in Sunday Telegraph and Washington PostBurgundy is France's most prized and prestigious wine region today as well as being one of its oldest and most traded, if not always by the English. Its wines, to quote Jay McInerney who contributes, are "for lovers, lunatics and poets..." and are the textbook definition of what terroir is all about. Villages mere meters apart produce wines of startlingly different personalities, and it is one of the rare regions in Europe whose red and white wines are equally celebrated. For all of its precious history it is also a region at the forefront of vinous innovation, with many winemakers certified as biodynamic. It is home to some of the world's most famous wine estates, and its top wines are all made from just one red and one white grape, yet the range of wine styles across the region, from Chablis in the north to Beaujolais in the south is significant. On Burgundy explores all of these themes and ideas with contributions from many of the world's top wine writers, looking at the kings, popes, mavericks and pioneers who have made wine in this region for generations.
