[Sca-cooks] books was ideas for christmas prezzie cookery books, please?

[Johnna Holloway]

Another idea is a copy of  a new magazine called Cured, which  concentrates on preservation. 
I never came across a copy on a newsstand so I ordered it. 
https://www.curedmagazine.com

Darra Goldstein, formerly of Gastronomica did the editing.
