Why do we eat turkey (or goose) at Christmas? Who were the original Bloody Mary, Margherita and Earl Grey? Who invented the barbecue - and the ploughman's lunch? Which sauce was inspired by Parliament? Is the Scotch egg actually from Scotland?
In What Caesar Did for my Salad, Albert Jack reveals the bizarre and brilliant stories behind our favourite dishes and where they come from. From the romantic history of the Bakewell Pudding to the magical properties of hot cross buns, the truth about what put the bang in bangers and mash to why the croissant isn't really French at all (not to mention the identity of the real Caesar behind the salad), this delicious, fact-filled book will make you see your dinner in a whole new dimension.
