Book review: The Fish Store: Recipes and Recollections, By Lindsay Bareham
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Restaurants aside, not many buildings inspire food books. Yet this summer feast emerges from a former pilchard factory in Cornwall, purchased as a home in 1939 by Edwin John, son of the painter Augustus John.
Having married into the family, Bareham utilised the cornucopia on her doorstep, though her recipes venture far beyond the county borders: crab and cucumber linguine is highly recommended, as is "hauntingly sharp" lamb khoresh with rhubarb.
This splendid cookbook/memoir should be obligatory holiday kit for anyone heading to the coast.
