Synopsis

Rambler's Rewards is a cookery book using produce found along the coast to coast route - a great fish pie with fish from Whitby, traditional lamb from the Yorkshire Dales, sausage pie with Cumberland sausage meat.



With recipes and landscapes wonderfully photographed by Derry Brabbs, the book follows a walk through the day - from hearty and healthy breakfasts, through to lunch at home or on the move, tea time treats and suggestions for supper. The recipes are either quick and easy to prepare at the end of a busy day or could have been prepared in advance and frozen, refrigerated or left on a timer for when you get in.



Inspired by years of walking and holidaying along the Coast to Coast route, the recipes inspire you to plan a great day out as well as celebrating the variety and abundance of wonderful produce available in the North of England. More than that, they are also ideal for our demanding and often chaotic everyday lives. A casserole prepared in the evening to be waiting in the oven after a busy day at work; an economical and healthy bowl of soup for lunch at the office; pizza slice and honey & seed flapjacks for the children's lunch box; a sumptuous cake for a family tea or a quiche, salad and glass of wine to share with friends. There is a recipe for every occasion which you are sure to find straight forward yet rewarding to make.

This book uses wonderful foods produced along the route in recipes that are simple to prepare after a long day's walking. BBC Good Food Magazine Every home has one or two cookbooks - usually collecting dust on an out-of-reach shelf in the kitchen - and there's no cause to use them because the dishes are too difficult or the ingredients are impossible to come by. Rambler's Rewards aims to counter that problem by making local delicacies using local produce, from along the Coast to Coast route.

Derry Brabbs provides the final ingredient with photographs that tempt you to eat the food and walk the fells. You can decide which you want to do first. Workington Times & Star People, places, local produce and family chat are all part of this book which reflects the fact that this is not just one of the most beautiful countrysides to walk through but also beats an equally unforgettable culinary path for us across the north of England.

Elizabeth Guy's family moved to Stalling Busk, a tiny hamlet in Wensleydale, North Yorkshire when she was ten years old. Her parents, through their smallholding, lived the good life , with a jersey cow which yielded rich milk, always a pig in the barn for homemade bacon, sausages and meat and of course a potato patch. After moving back to Wensleydale following University and a spell in London, Elizabeth opened Humble Pie, a delicatessen & fresh food takeaway. Well before it became popular and before the advent of Farmer's markets, it was important to her to use local ingredients whenever possible. In June 2006, Elizabeth filmed a series of ten cookery demonstrations as part of BBC1's Countryfile - The Summer Diaries . She lives in Askrigg, Wensleydale, with her three daughters and her partner Bruce, a farmer.

Pat Kirkbride has three great passions in life - hill walking, her two collie dogs and a love of good food. Pat grew up on a traditional hill farm in Wensleydale, and developed a natural understanding of the connection between the landscape and the different breeds that land will support. Each farmer's unique knowledge of the area's climate combined with good breeding and animal husbandry will result in the finest end product. Born with a love of walking, Pat is at her happiest when out of doors, and finds it truly fascinating that in the 191 miles that is the Coast to Coast walk, the produce available is so diverse. She has been lucky enough to visit a small selection of producers from along the walk and shares those experiences in the book. Her love of good food, comes from her mother, Doreen Whitehead, who is a wonderful cook and shares her experiences of running a farmhouse B&B in this book. Pat lives in Snaizeholme, just outside Hawes, with her husband and son, and two collie dogs.
