Seasonal Salads
‘Salads can be anything you want them to be’ says Fi Buchanan. In Seasonal Salads she showcases 52 mouthwatering recipes, one for every week of the year. Here it is, a book that celebrates salads in all their seasonal glory.
There are hearty winter feasts (think Roasted Mushrooms with Farro or Lacy Potatoes with Eggs & Soft Herbs) as well as summer favourites (like Pistou Chargrilled Courgettes and Crispy Skinned Salmon Nicoise). There are classics and twists on classics, quick weeknight salads and dinner-partyworthy creations.
What these recipes all have in common is Fi’s trademark inventive flair, her ability to combine flavours and textures in the cleverest of ways to make the most of what’s plentiful in each season.
If you thought salads were something you served on the side, it’s time to turn over a new leaf.

Winner of a Glenfiddich Spirit of Scotland award, she presented the BBC series TeenCanteen, has worked behind the scenes on many tv food shows and has given a TedX talk on courage.
