Celebrated author and culinary maestro Nigel Slater presents the second instalment in his seasonal vegetable duology. This tome focuses on autumnal and wintry fare, reflecting Slater's own shift towards a predominantly plant-based diet on weekdays.
As the mercury drops and the days shorten, our palates yearn for hearty, warming dishes. Greenfeast rises to the occasion with over 110 nourishing recipes. From velvety milk, mushroom and rice concoctions that envelop you like a cashmere throw, to robust soups featuring tahini, sesame and butternut squash, and savoury crumbles bursting with leeks, tomatoes and pecorino - each dish is a culinary embrace.
Slater's ingenious creations span the spectrum from simple cheese-filled filo parcels to sophisticated shallot, apple and Parmesan tarts. Comfort food reaches new heights with soothing polenta enhanced by garlic and mushrooms, while fiery udon noodles with tomato and chilli offer a spicy kick. For those with a sweet tooth, indulgent puddings like ginger cake infused with cardamom and maple syrup provide a fitting denouement.
This collection is a veritable celebration of plant-based cookery, elevating humble ingredients to gastronomic greatness. Whether you're a committed vegetarian or simply looking to incorporate more meat-free meals into your repertoire, Greenfeast promises to be your culinary companion through the colder months.

Sherlock & Pages is a little bookshop with a big heart. We are based in Frome, Somerset, England and curate lists of books in the areas we are passionate about – landscape, nature, history, and heritage. In short, the conservation of all we’ve inherited and all we are responsible to pass on. We aim to inspire and be inspired, to form a literary culture of care and passion about this precious planet we call home.
This is a shop where you might find something you haven’t seen before, and we like to think we’ve got something for everyone. We choose each of our books with care and for a reason. This is because our physical store is small but beautifully formed, holding only around 1200 titles at any one time. We try and recreate the feel of the shop wherever we are online, to reflect our niche categories and personality.
We have an active social media presence and aim to share our story with all our friends. The long-term goal is to build a hub for the books and writers we believe in. Who knows where our adventure will lead but by supporting Sherlock & Pages you’re helping us to add a further layer of magic to our little corner of the world. If you haven’t visited our physical store, one day you might just make a literary pilgrimage down to Somerset.
Our tagline is ‘Long Live the Hedgerows’ and our symbol a hibernating dormouse. If you want to support an independent with a unique character and which will share stories with you for years to come, then choose Sherlock & Pages. The world needs bookshops with soul, for they are ‘citadels of light.’
