Enjoy a cup of tea and a slice of cake with Britain's favourite novelist Inspired by the novels and letters of Jane Austen, this collection of cakes, bakes and pastries is based on authentic recipes from the Regency era, which have been fully updated for modern-day cooks. In Jane Austen's day, tea and cakes were usually served after dinner, or to evening guests, but these rolls, buns, tarts, and biscuits will be equally welcome at breakfast, with mid-morning coffee, or for afternoon tea. Recipes featured in the book include: English Muffins, based on the muffins served with after-dinner tea in ' Pride and Prejudice' ; Buttered Apple Tart as offered by Mr. Woodhouse to Miss Bates in ' Emma' ; and Jumbles, inspired by the biscuits enjoyed by Fanny in ' Mansfield Park' . From Plum Cake and Gingerbread to Ratafia Cakes and Sally Lunns ' Tea with Jane Austen' has all the recipes you need to create the finest tea time treats, and the original recipes are given alongside, so you can compare them and appreciate modern time-savers such as icing sugar, dried yeast and electric mixers all the more! Review: Bien - C’est un livre contenant des recettes de cuisine pour préparer des biscuits ou cakes dont je vais tenter une des recettes prochainement. Il y a quelques illustrations Review: delizioso - Una approfondita ricerca di ricette antiche, dal 1747 al 1845, fra le quali, parecchie tratte dai quaderni di casa delle parenti di Jane Austen. Preparazioni di dolci per accompagnare il thè, classici che tutti conosciamo, e altri deliziosi non noti. In tutto il libro sono riportate le ricette originali e le versioni " attuali" corredate da belle foto. Ne ho già provate alcune: " i gingerbread", e " l' apple art". I riferimenti nelle opere della scrittrice sono riportati all'inizio di ogni preparazione. Scritto in inglese, ma facile da tradurre. Per gli amanti del rito del thè, per trovare ricette poco note e semplici, per i romantici fans della grande scrittrice.

A truly delightful little book!
What a delightful little book! Beautifully presented, and illustrated, it is something to treasure for many years. I'm not a baker, but I love cookbooks –ironic, I know– and this one is so small and light, I can browse through it without having to sit at the table. The recipe for hot chocolate is something I would make. It was served at a wedding breakfast that Austen attended.
