A gorgeous book for anyone with a hunger to learn about culinary cultures through the lens of someone who knows it so well. 

What is a 'summer kitchen'? In Ukraine, it means a small cooking space located in the veg garden, away from the main house. Calling on fond childhood memories and countless conversations and cooking sessions, Olia Hercules shows how you can make the most of summery ingredients to create new, inventive and utterly delicious plates of food. Her recipes include Ukrainian favourites like: Burnt Aubergine Butter on Tomato Toast, Sourdough Garlic Buns, Poppyseed Cake with Elderflower and Strawberries.
