The second event on Sunday is from food writer Claudia Roden.
Claudia's delightful new book conjures up the spell cast by the Mediterranean and its influence on her life-long love of cooking. The Cairo-born and French-educated writer says: “The smell of garlic sizzling with crushed coriander takes me back to Egypt and the aroma of saffron and orange zest mingled with aniseed and garlic triggers memories of the Riviera.”
Like her earlier classic works, The Food of Italy, The Food of Spain and The Book of Jewish Food - a 25th anniversary special edition of which is now on sale - this new offering seamlessly blends culinary tales with recipes from a master of her craft.
Claudia is in conversation with BBC Food Programme presenter Dan Saladino whose new book Eating to Extinction laments the steady loss of the world's rarest foods.
