Submitting... As World Book Day (March 4) approaches, we asked chefs and producers to reveal their most inspirational read. “I could spend my last penny on cookbooks. They’re an art form, deeply personal to the author and a labour of love. Transcending time and place, they instantly transport the reader anywhere the world. I love Barrafina - a Spanish Cookbook by Sam and Eddie Hart and Nieves Barragan Mohacho for these reasons. I adored growing, picking, shelling and podding broad beans as a child in our kitchen garden. Their broad beans and goats’ cheese on toast recipe is simple but clever, like all of Nieves’ recipes. It can be made all year round with frozen broad beans and whatever young lemony goats cheese you can find. The reduced Pedro Jimenez vinegar is genius. I sometimes add beetroot for colour and contrast to the vibrant green of the broad beans and crisp white of the cheese”.
