We are delighted to welcome Jessica Elliott Dennison back to the bookshop for a delicious event celebrating new recipes from her brand new book, Weekend Recipes. There will also be samples made by Jess for you to try!

About the book:
Following on from Midweek Recipes, Jessica Elliott Dennison brings us these joyful dishes for exploring across the weekend.
With chapters of Breakfast, Lunch, Afternoon Baking, Dinner and Pudding, these are the flavours and methods for when work is on pause and there’s more time for connecting with your ingredients, kitchen and company.
There’s her sherbet-y lemon curd for spreading over toast in the morning; roast pepper, charred silverskin onion and Parmesan crostini for midday; and spaghetti and oregano meatballs followed by blackcurrant pavlova with lemon and bay custard for the evening. The whole weekend is here.
