Trinity: The Cookbook

What’s it about? Marking 20 years of one of London’s most acclaimed restaurants, Trinity: The Cookbook offers a glimpse behind the scenes of chef Adam Byatt’s Michelin-starred establishment in Clapham. Combining some of the restaurant’s best-loved recipes with personal stories and insights from a life in professional kitchens, this beautifully photographed cookbook captures the food, people and philosophy that have made Trinity such a beloved dining destination.

The chapters in this beautiful cookbook take you through a day behind the restaurant’s doors, from morning through lunch and afternoon to dinner and late-night dining, with recipes ranging from simple pleasures to impressive dishes for entertaining. There’s also a dedicated Christmas section, offering inspiration for festive cooking. Alongside the recipes, Adam shares stories from Trinity’s history and his approach to food and hospitality, giving readers a fascinating insight into the workings of a Michelin-starred kitchen.

For more accessible everyday cooking, there’s The Trinity Repertoire, a special section tucked into the back cover, which brings together a collection of shorter recipes for sauces, soups, biscuits, cakes, and more. Trinity: The Cookbook offers something for passionate home cooks and aspiring chefs alike, as well as those who simply enjoy reading about exceptional food.
