Winter in the Highlands: Eating, Drinking and Celebrating in Scotland by Flora Shedden

Banish the winter blues, embrace the stark beauty of the colder months and step into an invitingly warm world of comfort and culinary delight.

In this her eagerly anticipated fourth cookbook, food writer, acclaimed bakery owner and Bake Off semi-finalist Flora Shedden invites readers on a joyous, heart-warming journey through the enchanting winter season in Scotland, celebrating the region's rich and distinctive culinary heritage and cherished festive traditions.

Offering creative, deliciously do-able savory and sweet recipes that cater for the entire winter season, it includes a mix of both traditional dishes and modern alternatives, as well as tips to get ahead for Christmas, Hogmanay and Burns Night, ensuring your table is always graced with warmth and flavor from the first snowfall to the final thaw. Set against the backdrop of Scotland's dramatic landscapes and picture-post­card wintertime charm, it is a stunning culinary adventure that is nothing short of magical.

Flora Shedden has been in the kitchen all her life. When she was ten she began making her own birthday cakes (and everyone else's for that matter) and at twelve she took full creative control over Christmas. The youngest ever semi-finalist on The Great British Bake Off, Flora Shedden is a food writer based in Perthshire, Scotland. In 2017, she opened ARAN Bakery, named by The Times as one of the best bakeries in the UK. She is the author of Gatherings, Aran, Supper and Winter in the Highlands.
