Newsletter: Easter feasting + special offer on tickets for The British Library food season

Easter marks the point in the Christian calendar when the penitential forty-day period of Lent is over. Named after the Norse goddess of spring and rebirth Eostre, it is a time to celebrate after the winter fast, to share sweetness and abundance. There is regional variation in Easter foods, but what they have in common is that all-important rich sweetness and reference to the new season of warmth and harvest ahead.

Joyce was one of the inheritors of the great George Perry-Smith who had The Hole in the Wall in Bath and later Riverside, one of the first restaurants with rooms, in Helford in Cornwall. His partner Joyce had the eponymous Carved Angel at Dartmouth. Simon Hopkinson was also under George's culinary wing.

Not explicitly an English cookbook – influences and ingredients also come from elsewhere – this is nonetheless deeply and beautifully rooted in Molyneux’s cooking in her Devon restaurant. Every recipe has that little bit of finesse that makes a dish special without being cheffy.
