Written by Robert Tuesley Anderson, it gathers over 75 recipes inspired by the food, places and characters found throughout Tolkien's beloved legendarium. Packed with full-colour artwork and thoughtful essays on the role of food in the stories, this unofficial companion is a treat for any fantasy-loving home cook, gift-giver or Tolkien enthusiast searching for something a little different. About the Book From hearty breakfasts to celebratory feasts, this hardback collection is structured around the meals that punctuate everyday life across the Shire and beyond. Dishes such as Crickhollow Apple Loaf, Pippin's Minas Tirith Lunch, Brandywine Fish Pie, Dwarven Spiced Pickled Beetroot, Westfarthing Fairings and Beorn's Twice-Baked Cakes take their inspiration from the food culture threaded through Tolkien's Lord of the Rings, reimagined with modern ingredients and clear, approachable methods suitable for cooks of any experience level. Alongside the recipes sit stunning illustrations and short feature essays exploring how food shapes character, culture and comfort throughout Middle-earth - from the hobbits' famous love of second breakfast to the more austere fare found in the wilder corners of the world. Running to 176 pages, the book is designed to be dipped into again and again, whether you are planning a themed dinner party, a cosy weekend bake, or simply bringing a little more Middle-earth into your everyday cooking. This work is unofficial and not authorised by the Tolkien Estate or HarperCollins Publishers, but its evident affection for the source material shines through on every page.
