Books: Afternoon Tea at Home {Will Torrent}

Love tea?
Beth Kirby
Thanks for all the sweet feedback about my
Swedish Pancake win, and in the spirit of
all things beautiful beyond brunch, today
I offer inspiration for afternoon tea.

I have never hosted one, and truth be told
my favorite tea remains plain ol' organic green,
yet I look forward to learning how those
in the know serve it with style.
This new book from Will Torrent
(available March 10th - Ryland Peters & Small)
is just the ticket to deliver the confidence
and recipes for hosting a proper civilized afternoon tea.
In addition to a history of this British institution,
the book has recipes from top restaurants
and hotels, including:
The Ritz
The Dorchester
Brown's Hotel
The Berkeley
Les Manoir aux Quat'Saisons
and Harrods.

Torrent offers recipes for basic jams, spreads, butters and curds -
everything for a carefully planned afternoon tea.
