Photographed in and around Annabel's lakeside cabin, The Free Range Cook is much more than a recipe book.

Thanks to Annabel's clever cooking tricks and techniques, home cooks are offered the chance to recreate restaurant-style dishes they might once have thought were too difficult or time consuming. With Annabel Langbein The Free Range Cook, home is set to become your new favourite restaurant.
