I wanted to enjoy this book, I wanted to be wowed by Cornish recipes… although it is a beautiful book I was not ‘grabbed’ by many of the recipes and there was little that was new and inspiring. For this isn’t some aspirational catalogue of a cookbook, in which you simply imagine yourself drifting around the Cornish coast, but a justifiably proud celebration of local produce (allied to a keen sense of how they can be incorporated within a wider culinary legacy) and a reliable, reassuring guide to the sort of food I always want to eat no matter where I am.

To put it simply, Emily is passionate about food and it is in her kitchen where she feels most at home. Emily was named best chef in the South West by Food magazine and recently been listed in the top 100 most influential women in the hospitality industry for the second year running.I adore Cornwall, and feel so lucky to be transported there, soaking up the beauty of the landscape and food. Emily was commissioned by the Cabinet Office to curate a special dinner for the G7 summit in Cornwall cooking for all the leaders of the western worlds. Emily trained in London and France and her classical training forms the backbone of her cooking style. I really enjoyed reading Emily’s book which beautifully conveys her love for Cornwall, cooking and our incredible Cornish produce.

Emily appeared on Great British Menu representing the South West on BBC 2 in 2019 during the competition Emily made sure that her ethos of pared down, seasonal cooking came across in her menu. I felt transported to the ethereal Cornish coast with the imagery and am enjoying cooking my way through the various recipes. Emily’s recipes reflect the ebb and flow of daily life during the year; from breakfasts of overnight oats and buttery crumpets to lunches of sea-herb focaccia, and from suppers of Cornish bouillabaisse to desserts of treacle tart and bramble and peach crumble. Her restaurant, Emily Scott Food, is in Watergate Bay and she was selected as one of the host chefs for the 2021 G7 summit in Cornwall.
