The Official Peaky Blinders Cookbook

Back in the year 2019, the inaugural episode of Peaky Blinders series five had 6.2 million viewers.

Next year in 2022, Peaky Blinders will air its sixth and final series 

And to commemorate this achievement is the first first official series cookbook. Owners of this book will be able to cook and eat just like the Shelby family and the other Peaky Blinders.

There are 50 tasty recipes, inspired by the iconic locations so beloved on the notorious gang, such as the the Garrison's Bar,  the Eden Club and Arrow House.

There are hearty, filling family meals, sandwiches, snacks and more besides. But there are posher meals, too, such as canapes lunches and dinners.

There are also nourishing meals like vegetable & barley soup with Alfie Solomons' soda bread, Grilled Oysters with parmesan crumb, Roast Rabbit with bacon and mushrooms in a whiskey sauce, flavourful Glazed celeriac steaks with breadcrumbs & herbs, a delicious Steak and ale pie, with a tasty mash, Butter and sage roast chicken with mushrooms & tarragon cream sauce, and Sloe Gin jelly with blackberries and cream.

I especially like the idea of Marmalade bread-and-butter pudding with rum custard!

Combining stills from the series, with recipes and specially commissioned photography, this lavishly illustrated cookbook is a must have for both Peaky Blinders fans and keen cooks, and will take readers on a unique journey into the world of the Shelby's.

The book is published by Quarto and will be published on 08/03/2022 at £14.99 in hardback.

It will be available from Waterstone and other high street book retailers and from online retailers such as Amazon,  Books Etc and Bookshop.org.
