This is for anyone who wants to get closer to cooking, to seizing the independence and happiness that preparing your own food gives you. It is a love letter to great quality ingredients and the magic things you can make with them.

Such a beautiful insight into one of my favourite London Markets. Insightful, knowledgeable and such a great peek into traders, produce and wonderful people that produce and sell amazing ingredients. If you love food and produce then this is a must have book on your shelf.

What an important, fascinating book, not just for those of us that know and love Borough, but for everyone that frequents their local market. A thorough guide in how to utilise the produce available to us, with insight and beautiful sounding recipes.

This will make the perfect gift to yourself as well as any friends across the world who have longed to visit London's famous foodie market themselves. I love that we can learn from the traders themselves - their skills, dedication, company, banter and spirit make the market the success it is. Angela's wizardry and food knowledge, friendliness and cheer add even more magic to this book. I've been shopping and eating at Borough Market since I discovered it at my first job out of school, working down Bermondsey Street. It's a London must do and this book is a must have. Congrats to team BM!

The wonderful thing about this book is it connects the recipes to the experts at Borough Market. Tucked between pages full of delicious recipes are valuable insights gathered from the most passionate producers. From practical tips on how to prepare fresh crab or fillet round fish to making sense of why seasonality matters - Borough Market The Knowledge is essential reading for anyone who cares about good food.
*Ravinder Bhogal*

This book will improve your cooking way beyond any regular cookbook might. Chefs and food writers love to tell us 'eaters' that we should buy better food, but they rarely tell us what makes food better! Angela does exactly this, in the most sincere and informative way, inspiring our inner cooks to adventure into the market and cook great food.
*Tom Hunt*

An exciting new release for all foodies out there!

Few places are as synonymous with extraordinary produce as Borough Market. One of the oldest food markets in London - where the traders are as famous as their artisan ingredients - it's long been a draw for foodies and chefs alike. And no one has the inside track quite like food writer Angela Clutton. This book does exactly what it says on the tin, bringing together the knowledge of the market's expert traders to produce over 80 delicious recipes. It's a real love letter to the market.
