From the publisher

A celebration of warm-weather dishes that will bring joy to your table all year round

'An all-time classic. The book I'm happy to return to, over and over again. It's an utter joy to cook from, as it is to dig deep into the stories' - Yotam Ottolenghi

'This book has a special place in my heart' - Claudia Roden

A glorious new edition of the original gem at the heart of bestselling food writer Diana Henry's much-loved repertoire

Crazy Water, Pickled Lemons gathers together dishes that combine colourful, aromatic and perfumed ingredients - from leathery pomegranates with their insides bursting with ruby seeds to flower waters that allow you to drink in the scent of a garden - to bring pleasure to your kitchen and an intoxicating whiff of warmer climes to your table.
