Title
Claire Macdonald – Fine food, cookbooks and cooking demonstrations
Description
Her reputation stretches around the globe thanks to a raft of best-selling cookery books, her radio broadcasts and television appearances, and a hectic international travel schedule. She lectures throughout the English-speaking world, presenting informative and hugely entertaining cookery demonstrations in North America, Australasia and the British mainland – as well as in her own kitchen at Kinloch on the Isle of Skye.
Like so many great cooks, Claire is self-taught – her enthusiasms and expertise echoing that of culinary icons such as the late Jane Grigson. Flavoursome, wholesome and hearty, Claire’s recipes are easy-to-follow, straightforward, and realistic – quintessentially Scottish in flavour, but truly international in appeal. Her seventeenth cookery book will be published by Transworld in September 2006, and her latest television series, Claire Macdonald’s Seasonally Scottish, is currently being screened on the UK Food channel.
The Scottish Larder
Claire combines a tireless advocacy of local produce with a food literacy extended by travel and experience. Yet, while she may use Sicilian lemons or Indian chillis to add zest and zing, the absolute fundamental of her craft is Scotland’s own rich seasonal trove. From Clyde Valley tomatoes to the berry crops of Angus, from line-caught salmon, to game, lamb and beef, Claire’s work celebrates all that’s exceptional about seasonal ingredients cultivated, caught or reared in Scotland.
