There’s nothing like eating outdoors to capture your sense of adventure, and add a flair to the food – whether you are entertaining a relaxed crowd of friends and family or preparing a romantic feast for two. Hop on your vintage bike to work up an appetite, hit the beach for a cook-out, or host a teddy bears picnic for little ones; these all feature within Tori’s 10 themed menus, each complete with recipes for savoury and sweet dishes, as well as drinks. On a balmy summers eve, hang paper lanterns from trees and serve Asian-inspired food in the Indochine picnic, or lay luxurious rugs and evoke a sense of the middle east with a meze platter and spiced citrus couscous for the Bohemian picnic. Warm up during an autumn walk in the woods with a thermos of spiced squash soup and slabs of zingy ginger cake, or dream of sunnier climes with a Provenc¸ al-inspired feast. Whatever the occasion, A Perfect Day for a Picnic is your guide to enjoying the outdoors life.

The classic burger has gone from humble beginnings (as a simple hamburger sandwich brought over to the States by German immigrants) to become an enduring symbol of modern fast-food culture. But now these popular patties are enjoying a renaissance with the arrival of the gourmet burger and its little cousin the ‘slider’ (mini burger). High-quality burgers, made with organic ingredients and bold flavourings are topped with inspired new takes on mayos and relishes and presented in freshly-baked artisan buns and rolls. Mouth-watering recipes to try in this book include Classic Restaurant Burgers with Bacon, Cheese and Pickles; Mexican Burgers with Homemade Guacamole and Fresh Tomato Salsa; Lamb and Feta Burgers with Homemade Tzatziki; Root Veggie Burgers with Fresh Guacamole; Pork and Caramelized Apple Sliders; and Beef Sliders with Mozzarella Pearl Centres in Mini Ciabatta. KEY SELLING POINTS • Gourmet ‘junk’ food is a fast-growing foodie trend, as the recent rise in popularity of gourmet burger, slider and hotdog restaurants demonstrates. THE AUTHOR Miranda Ballard and her husband left behind their London media careers (Miranda was Sir David Frost’s PA and Roland worked for Working Title Films) in 2008 to return to their home county of Worcestershire to launch their own food company. They wanted to rebrand the idea of the burger, to prove it is a versatile and nutritious food and promote top quality, ethically farmed, beef. Muddy Boots had stalls at over 350 farmers’ markets and food shows within their first year and now their fresh, gourmet burgers are available nationwide, in 90 Waitrose stores. This is Miranda’s first book. PUBLICITY Times Weekend, Marie Claire, Stylist, delicious, Sainsbury’s Magazine, Hello!, Red.

There has never been a better time to explore wine: more is being made, of higher quality, in greater variety and at more affordable prices than ever before. The huge choice of bottles may seem daunting at first, but with this invaluable book you will soon pick up the basics and be on your way to enjoying the wonderful world of wine. The place to start is with the grapes themselves, because once you can identify the different varieties and the wines that they make, you will discover those that you like and those that you don’t. Jonathan Ray considers all the important grape varieties – from Cabernet Sauvignon to Zinfandel, from Chardonnay to Viognier – describing their characters, quirks and qualities. In addition, the secrets of deciphering wine labels, the best ways to store, serve and taste wine – and how to tackle a restaurant wine list – are also revealed. With this book as your companion, you will be able to approach any bottle with total confidence. KEY SELLING POINTS • Invaluable information from a leading wine expert in an affordable gift format. • Everything you need to make informed choices in a pocket or handbag-size book. THE AUTHOR Jonathan Ray is drinks columnist for GQ magazine. He was wine editor of the Daily Telegraph for many years and has contributed to the Spectator, Guardian, Mail on Sunday and Imbibe magazine, writing on wine, beer and travel. He is the author of All About Wine and How to Buy Wine, both published by Ryland Peters & Small. PUBLICITY GQ, Sainsbury’s Magazine, Delicious, Decanter, BBC Good Food, Times Weekend
