„If you have a love for tra­di­ti­on as well as good food then A Tas­te of Scot­land will send you into ecsta­sy“ DAILY MAIL

„A book to read and enjoy … a com­pa­n­ion to Theodo­ra FitzGibbon´s A Tas­te of Ire­land. The same tech­ni­que is used, com­bi­ning tra­di­tio­nal recipes with a ter­ri­fic coll­ec­tion of his­to­ri­cal pho­to­graphs dating from bet­ween 1845 and 1900, which cast their own pecu­li­ar­ly poignant spell.

„The ran­ge of Scots coo­king is wide, not sur­pri­sing con­side­ring the influence of Scan­di­na­via and the ‚well keipt anci­ent alli­ance, maid bet­wix Scot­land and the real­me of France‘, which inspi­res sto­vies, Lor­raine soup, even hag­gis, not to men­ti­on Mary Stuart´s favou­ri­te biscuits.

„The recipes have been coll­ec­ted from manu­scripts and fami­ly papers lar­ge­ly of eigh­te­enth and nine­te­enth cen­tu­ry ori­gin. The­re is a fee­ling of fresh who­le­so­me mate­ri­als trea­ted with sim­pli­ci­ty and care. A love­ly book.“ THE TIMES
