Gourmet Farmer Matthew Evans and producers Nick Haddow and Ross O'Meara share their favourite deli recipes. Enjoy food as it used to taste.

Why would you make your tomato sauce or preserve your own vegetables? It's quite simple, really - because it tastes better.

This collection of recipes celebrates the artisan process in making items you'd typically find in your local deli, and provides simple, delicious recipes where those ingredients are the stars of simple, rustic, flavoursome dishes.

From dill pickles to preserved artichokes, the definitive ploughman's and beef tartare, The Gourmet Farmer Deli Book: Vegetables and Condiments celebrates the way we used to cook and the way food used to taste.

Recipes include: Pickled olives, preserved roast tomatoes, braised lamb necks with olives and rosemary, pickled pub eggs, Grandpa Steve's tomato sauce and many more.
