Summary

'It has been said that I will eat anything. That is, of course, nonsense. A fried egg that still has a pool of runny egg white clinging to the yolk is a definite no-no. Still, I must admit that it was with some pride that I read, in one review of my series A Cook on the Wild Side, that I had been given the sobriquet "Hugh Fearlessly Eatsitall"...' 
 
For almost two decades Hugh has been writing about food in all its guises. To some, his concept of 'good eating' might seem a bit skewed - he'd always bypass a McBurger in favour of a squirrel sandwich, and make a detour for fresh road kill - but to others he is a shining and shaggy beacon of good sense in a food world gone mad. Armed with a broad mind, a quick wit and a ready appetite, Hugh covers almost every area of global food culture, whether singing the praises of offal; playing 'poisson roulette' with the deadly fugu fish in Tokyo; analysing the tea-dunking qualities of some classic British biscuits; or reminding us that a reindeer isn't just for Christmas, but tasty all year round.

    Discover how to drop the pounds permanently with this ketogenic diet cookbook. 
     
    You’ve hit it before—the dreaded weight-loss plateau that you just can’t break through. No matter what, the pounds won’t go even with calorie counting and traditional low-carb diets. Turns out there is a secret weapon to losing weight—fat (and lots of it). After decades of taking butter, bacon, eggs, and avocados off the table, it turns out that fats are far better for beating the battle of the bulge than “healthy whole grains” and high protein diets. Backed up by science, the LCHF diet is quickly becoming the hottest way to shed pounds and jumpstart a stalled metabolism. 
     
    Low-carb proponent and bestselling author Dana Carpender will guide you through the LCHF lifestyle and shed light on important questions such as:Is LCHF safe?Why does the traditional low-carb, high-protein diet not work for you?Which Are Good Fats? (Not all fats are created equal!) 
     
    In 200 Low-Carb, High-Fat Recipes you get tips for creating low-carb/high-fat meals, and find out why three meals a day may not be needed! With 200 recipes, including soups, breakfasts, appetizers, sides and sauces, you’ll never be cooked for delicious ideas! 
     
    Praise for 200 Low-Carb High-Fat Recipes 
     
    “If you are among the nutritionally enlightened, rejecting the outdated and destructive ‘cut your fat and eat more healthy whole grains’ message, and have ambitions for a sumptuous return to duck fat, lard, bacon fat, and coconut milk and doing it in style, then Dana’s new book is right up your alley.” —William Davis, M.D., author of #1 New York Times–bestseller Wheat Belly 
     
    “Fat is back and better than ever. Real food-based fats like butter, coconut oil, steak, cream, and cheese, are essential to help you burn fat, zap hunger and cravings, and optimize your health in ways you never thought possible. If you want to be in a state of nutritional ketosis, 200 Low-Carb, High-Fat Recipes is your new go-to resource.” —Jimmy Moore, author of Cholesterol Clarity and Keto Clarity

    The story of Britain’s fish and chips obsession 
    ‘A lyrical, amiable and educational celebration of what may be our greatest achievement: the chippy.’ Stuart Maconie 
    Step inside and unwrap this deliciously entertaining look at Britain’s national dish. 
    There is a corner of every town and city in Britain where the air is tangy with vinegar and the scent of frying. Following the irresistible lure, Daniel Gray ponders the magic of chippies and the delights they have sprinkled among us for the last 150 years as he investigates the social – and sociable – history of fish and chips. 
    Travelling to chippies from Dundee to Devon via South Shields, Oldham, Bradford, Bethnal Green, the Rhondda Valley and more – Daniel Gray explores our fish-and-chip nation to show how chippies have helped emancipate women, promote equality for immigrants and shape local and national identity. 
    Whether you were raised eating scraps of Wolverhampton’s orange chips, London’s ‘wallies’ or Hull’s chip spice – even if you think you know whether tea, Vimto or dandelion and burdock is the best accompaniment – this mouth-watering book is as much about who we are as what we eat. 
    Gray's new essays on Britain's fish and chips obsession are a delightful exploration of regional cooking styles, from English to Scottish and Welsh. The narratives are rich with ethnic diversity, making this latest work a top choice for food enthusiasts. 
    For fans of Jonathan Wilson (Kick and Run), Jon Spurling (Death or Glory), Alan Partridge (Alan Partridge), Tim Rich (On Days Like These), and Pen Vogler (Scoff).
