The Buenvino Cookbook: Recipes from Our Farmhouse in Spain

For over thirty years, Jeannie and Sam Chesterton have lived high in the hills of Spain`s western Andalusia at Finca Buenvino, their welcoming pink farmhouse, which they have run as a guesthouse – achieving international acclaim for their cooking and also their cookery courses. On their 100-acre estate the Chestertons grow their own organic vegetables, fruits and chestnuts, and raise Iberian pigs which are killed for jamon Iberico, salchichon, and chorizo. Violet Andalusian hens, a rare breed which they are helping to conserve, produce fresh eggs for breakfast, and homemade breads and jams are always on the table in the morning. Dinners are a social occasion, with summer dining under the stars, or in winter guests assemble at the table in the panelled dining room. Talk of food is of the essence always!
