Local ingredients for today’s palate! Newfoundland’s cool climate offers ideal growing conditions for certain fruits and vegetables. In fact, author Roger Pickavance maintains, the island produces leeks, cabbage, rhubarb, celeriac, plums, berries, and other crops that rank with the best in the world. These flavoursome foods—as well as the rum, raisins, and marmalade so prevalent in Newfoundland cupboards and kitchens—are at the heart of Rum and Rhubarb. Pickavance shines a spotlight on each ingredient in turn, presenting delightful recipes for salads, soups, pastries, ice creams, gnocchi, and much more. For this, his third cookbook, Pickavance shares recipes from his personal collection. All are the product of extensive testing in his home kitchen, and are designed to showcase those ingredients that Newfoundland does best in new and creative ways.
