  Oils and vinegars should never be relegated simply to dressings, marinades and frying. This cookbook celebrates the many uses for the key oils and vinegars, and explains their characteristics, uses in cooking, health benefits and origins. There is plenty of information about specific oils, followed in each case by one or more recipes in which they are the focal ingredient. The 35 simple and mouthwatering recipes feature the legendary olive oil, as well as argan, avocado, walnut, hazelnut, sesame and pumpkin - try Sweet Avocado Oil, Lime and Pistachio cake and you will never want to use butter in baking again. Alongside balsamic vinegar, read about vincotto, sherry, cider and Asian vinegars, and make Pan-fried Tuna Steaks with Warm Vincotto-dressed Lentils. Also learn how easy it is to make your own flavoured oils and vinegars.
