    Book SynopsisIt''s daunting when your child is diagnosed with a food allergy but just because they''re allergic to one, or indeed, several types of food doesn''t mean that they can''t eat delicious meals with the rest of the family, benefit from a healthy, balanced diet or (should they deserve them!) have tasty treats.

Brilliantly useful and exquisitely designed.'' BBC Good Food Magazine*Best Newcomer in the Observer Food Monthly Awards 2013*This is our food, this is our restaurant - fresh fruit and vegetables, wild honey, big bunches of herbs, crunchy salads, smoky lamb, bread straight from the oven, old-fashioned stews, Middle Eastern traditions, falafel, dips, and plenty of tahini on everything.Squeeze in, grab a chair, ignore or enjoy the noise, the buzz, and tuck in. Leave room for dessert - cheesecake, a marzipan cookie with a Turkish coffee. Let us look after you - welcome to Honey & Co.Chapters include:Mezze; Fresh Salads; Light Dinners; Balls & stuff; SloTrade ReviewThere is a cheering warmth here, from the quinces on the cover to the self-deprecating stories about running a small business. Above all, I commend this book because my kitchen has never smelt as good when cooking from it. * Food Book of the Year - The Sunday Times *It's the kind of stuff you'd love to dish up to your pals and bask in the resulting praise... It's food you would always be happy to eat. * Guardian *The ingredient that is in every mouthful, that isn't on the menu, is the huge dollop of home-made love... This food comes from a husband and wife making their own small business from a tiny kitchen and small dining room, and everything in it is infused with a warm hug of hospitality. * The Sunday Times *This is indeed food made by people who like to eat. It is food that cares less about how it looks than how it tastes ... It feels like an act of love. * Guardian *I'm off to Honey & Co on Warren Street for what I'm going to describe dreamily as Middle Eastern soul food, largely as I can't think of a better way to explain the restorative value of letting husband-and-wife team Itamar Srulovich and Sarit Packer beckon you in and feed you ... it feels exactly like wandering into a little family-run room, after a snoozy day sunbathing on holiday, and quickly cottoning on that you've found a winner. * Evening Standard *Here, the food is as much about creating an atmosphere as it is about any individual dish, a new way of looking at Middle Eastern cuisine, subtler, more modern. * STELLA, Telegraph *What began life as a modest neighbourhood restaurant in Bloomsbury has since attracted a staunch following with its heartwarming dishes from the Middle East. Sarit Packer and Itamar Srulovich, the couple who run Honey & Co. have now written a book that captures - with sympathetic honesty - the love and toil involved. * Harpers Bazaar *The lure of this book about an eatery is clear: the owners' stories that reflect on love, immigration and identity are endearing and universal, and the book is heavily seasoned with them... If you love Honey & Co, this book is a must-read. * Time Out, Cookbook of the Week *It's not unusual for a book to grow from the seed of a restaurant. Most will start off telling the reader about the restaurant, the author, the inspiration and philosophy. Few will tell you how the owners fell in love over oven-fresh burek and pigeon stuffed with pine nut rice. How they sneered at each others introductions to "Haifa's best falafel" and "Jerusalem's best falafel", each secretly enjoying both. Few will introduce you to the staff, from the loveable front-of-house Rachael to "sweet, funny" Carlos the kitchen porter... Each section of this book is lightly spiced with just the right amount of anecdote and memory. It's blindingly obvious that hearts and souls and a great deal of love have gone into it. That's not something I come across too often in a cookbook. It also made me laugh out loud more than once. * Saffron Strands *The recipes are as reliable, imaginative and savoury as you'd hope from Ottolenghi alumni, but the other big draw is the narrative. The couple met in a kitchen, and haven't stopped sharing their favourite foods with each other and the people around them ever since. * Guardian *The modest subtitle of Honey & Co's debut cookbook, Food from the Middle East, published this month, doesn't begin to capture the richness and variety of the recipes - sardines cured in vine leaves, oxtail sofrito, their celebrated feta and honey cheesecake. But it's not just about the superb dishes: the book also captures a sense of place, bottling the personality of the tiny, 10-table restaurant on London's Warren Street that won last year's Observer Food Monthly award for best newcomer. -- Killian Fox * Observer Food Monthly *Food lovers have been waiting for this book ever since it was first commissioned... it is full of enchanting Middle Eastern dishes... This is Arabian Nights food delivered with passion and verve. * Saga Magazine *It's the kind of stuff you'd love to dish up to your pals and bask in the resulting praise... It's food you would always be happy to eat. -- Marina O’Loughlin * Guardian *Falafel fans rejoice! You'll find three recipes for this Middle Eastern favourite in Honey & Co's book, pluse the full complement of mezze dishes, dips, salads, breads and reich slow-cooked dishes, such as the melting lamb shawarma that I made. These recipes suit all abilities, written in an accessible sytle with mouth-watering photographs. -- Julie Shepherd * Square Meal *This is indeed food made by people who like to eat. It is food that cares less about how it looks than how it tastes ... It feels like an act of love. -- Jay Rayner * Guardian *The friendly yet knowledgeable vibe of the restaurant glows from the pages too. It's packed with mouth-watering recipes: pickles, salads, slow-cooked stews and show-stopping puds. This is a book to treasure. * Independent on Sunday *Middle Eastern Cooking at its most inspiring. Brilliantly useful and exquisitely designed. * BBC Good Food Magazine *Itamar Srulovich and Sarit Packer, chef patrons of Fitzrovia's Honey & Co, also published their - very romantic - volume of recipes rolled up with the story of how they came to be one of London's foodie sensations. * Jewish Chronicle *I'm smitten with the sweet spice mix from Honey & Co, a warm, heady mix including cardamom, fennel seed, mahleb and cinnamon. A teaspoon sprinkled on porridge is so satisfying it can almost persuade me to forgo sugar. * Stella *

    Book SynopsisThis comprehensive field guide to Ireland's robust and growing whiskey scene is the ultimate itinerary for whiskey beginners and connoisseurs, alike.An Irish whiskey guru, two bartender behemoths, and an adept writer combine forces to create this comprehensive guide to Irish whiskey. The book begins with an in-depth introduction to whiskey and its history in Ireland, including what makes each style of Irish whiskey unique. What follows is a detailed tour, including photographs, around the four Irish provinces, and of the 22 different distilleries and the unique Irish whiskeys each produces, as well as a discussion of the booming present and promising future for Irish whiskey producers. Each province also highlights the best of Ireland's 50 iconic bars and pubs, linking past to present and providing the ultimate whiskey tourist itinerary. The fun really begins when the masterminds behind 2015’s “World’s Best Bar,” Dead Rabbit Grocery and GrTrade Review“This colorful new book provides a tour of today’s distilleries, some with venerable roots, but most starting quite recently to meet the newly skyrocketing demand.” (The New York times)“A sophisticated guide for fans of Irish whiskey. It’s beautifully designed and illustrated . . . I can’t imagine returning to Ireland without a copy tucked away.” (The Wall Street Journal)"If you knew nothing about Irish whiskey before picking up the book, it doesn’t matter. By the end, you’ll have not only a solid base of Irish whiskey and Irish pub knowledge but also the will and wish to hop on the first jet to Dublin and start your very own journey." (Sam Slaughter, The Manual)“If you’re a serious Irish whiskey connoisseur, you’ll find plenty to interest you. But if you don’t know about the har stuff, [there is] information on its history and how it’s made. If you’re a devotee of great pubs, you’ll be spoiled for choice. And if you love a good cocktail, Jack McGarry created 12 original recipes. . . ” (The Irish Times)“If this was a book that had been done from the desk, as it easily could have been, it might have ended up as a dry encyclopedia that was useful as a reference work but not something you’d read cover to cover. However, by visiting all the pubs and distilleries, and talking to the owners and the experts, each entry is filled with conversation as well as information. The reader hears directly from the distiller or the pub owner, and we all know there’s no conversation like an Irish conversation. All you need is a session of live Irish music playing in the background, and you could be there with them.” (Travel Distilled)“Irish whiskey is a spirit unto itself, and lovers of Scotch or Bourbon can argue, but Irish whiskey purists know the craic (fun) is in the neat pour with good friends. This book was born from a whiskey guru, two bartender behemoths, to create this comprehensive guide to Irish whiskey.” (Monsters & Critics)Everyone should have "take a road trip through Ireland" on their bucket list — this is speaking from experience — and for whiskey lovers there’s now a definitive guide: "From Barley to Blarney," written by the founders of the Dead Rabbit.

    Book Synopsis''YOU''LL WANT TO COOK IT ALL'' - Evening Standard''Rachel Roddy''s writing is as absorbing as any novel. Her prose is so elegant and her story-telling so compelling that I almost forgot I was reading a cookbook.'' - Russell Norman, Polpo------------------From the award-winning weekly Guardian Cook columnist and winner of the André Simon and Guild of Food Writers'' Awards comes an Italian food book of sumptuous recipes, flavours and stories from Sicily and Rome.For the last twelve years, food-writer, cook and photographer Rachel Roddy has immersed herself in the culture of Roman cooking, but it was the flavours of the south that she and her Sicilian partner, Vincenzo, often craved. Eventually the chance arose to spend more time at his old family house in south-east Sicily, where Rachel embraced the country''s traditional recipes and the stories behind them. In Two Kitchens Rachel Trade ReviewRachel Roddy's writing is as absorbing as any novel. Her prose is so elegant and her story-telling so compelling that I almost forgot I was reading a cookbook. * Russell Norman, Polpo *This very entertaining book is a perfect marriage of the personal with the practical. Rachel has the ability of combining intimate reminiscences with excellent recipes. If you want to know anything about the food of Rome or Sicily, this is the book for you. -- Anna Del ConteRachel Roddy describing how to boil potatoes would inspire me. I want to live under her kitchen table. There are very, very few who possess such a supremely uncluttered culinary voice as hers, just now. * Simon Hopkinson *Rachel Roddy brings the warm flavours of the south into our northern kitchens. Her dishes from Sicily and Rome are linked by family stories, and both place and food are beautifully photographed. I shall cook from this book with pleasure. -- Jill NormanHer writing is elegant and her recipes tempting - the perfect combination. * Evening Standard *Roddy's writing often reminds me of a more generous, more evocative Elizabeth David. -- Nancy Harmon Jenkins * The Art of Eating *Rachel Roddy's first book, Five Quarters, became the kind of read that cookbook lovers and foodies urge each other to buy. Her new book is full of recipes further expanding on the idea of Five Quarters, that no two Italian dishes are the same. * Evening Standard *Such a talented storyteller and skilled cook. * The Foodie Bugle *Fantastic * @ottolenghi *Two Kitchens: Family Recipes from Sicily and Rome by Rachel Roddy, the award-winning Guardian Cook columnist and winner of the Andre Simon and Guild of Food Writers', delivers a glorious book highlighting the food that comes from her two kitchens in Sicily and Rome. Rachel's first title Five Quarters is on my bookshelf and I cannot wait to have this title join it. I had the privilege of reviewing the electronic version and it is spectacular - Rachel's beautiful writing, stunning photographs and scrumptious recipes makes this title a must have. * Eat Your Books Blog *Guardian columnist and Rome-resident Rachel Roddy is one of the current most popular voices in food writing, with her debut book Five Quarters winning her the André Simon Food Book Award. In this, her second title, Rachel shares over 120 traditional Italian recipes, with their inspiration coming from both her own Roman kitchen alongside the one of her Sicilian partner Vincenzo. With writing as gorgeous as the recipes it sits alongside, this is a book to treasure and one to which you'll often return. * Chilterns Bookshelf Magazine *Expect simple dishes with Italy's bountiful ingredients at their core, from honeyed peaches to Sicilian pasta, as well as plenty of Rachel's beautifully evocative writing. * Jamie Magazine *Buy Rachel Roddy's brilliant Italian-Sicilian cookbook, Two Kitchens. -- India Knight * Sunday Times *She had me at griddled aubergine left overnight in a deep pool of olive oil with chilli and garlic. -- Victoria Moore * Daily Telegraph *It is a book full of lip-smacking recipes and, in the margins, a vision of a lifestyle to envy. * Herald *Best of all is Rachel Roddy's Two Kitchens, a wonderful account of the cooking of Sicily and Rome by an English writer who lives in Rome with a Sicilian husband. This is cooking that's grounded in the place but with the appreciation of someone who comes to a rich tradition from outside. It's a fine selection of recipes, written in the most engaging way. -- Melanie McDonagh * Evening Standard, Best Cookbooks for summer 2017 *This charming book is a classic in the making. * Crumbs Magazine - Book of the Month *A beautiful read. * Delicious Magazine - This Year's Best Book Gifts for Food Lovers *For enchantingly fragrant, earthy food from below Italy's tomato line there's Rachel Roddy's Two Kitchens. Roddy has lived in both places, discovered a great variety of dishes and writes about them with joy and know-how. I'd like large helpings of her chicken with citrus and olives after a starter of pasta with cauliflower, anchovies, saffron, pinenuts and raisins. * Spectator *The prose is gorgeous and mouthwatering. * Culture Whisper *You'll want to cook it all. * Evening Standard *[Two Kitchens] is a testament to a life lived well between Rome and Sicily, delving into deep-rooted culinary traditions and discovering ways to improvise new ones * Guardian *Rachel Roddy's 2015 debut, Five Quarters, remains a delightful read, quite apart from the recipes. It tells the story of the author's move from London to Rome, and the resultant change in her relationship with food. In Two Kitchens, she relates the next stage of her Italian education: an exploration of the culinary culture of Sicily, where her partner was born. The flavours are fresh and summery - chicken balls with lemon and ricotta, for example - and much time is devoted to vegetables and other side-dishes. As in Five Quarters, Roddy's warmth, humour and love of Italian ingredients shines through the prose. * The Week - Best Cookbooks of 2017 *

Syrian cuisine deserves a high place in our culinary knowledge and Itab and Dina, with their brilliant recipes and fascinating stories, are the perfect authors to do this -- Ruth Rogers, co-founder of the River Cafe"Bulgar is coral but lentils are pearls." This is one of many pieces of Syrian food folk wisdom in Syria: Recipes from home by Itab Azzam and Dina Mousawi. This book is full of the Middle Eastern flavours that - thanks to Yotam Ottolenghi - have started to taste like home to many of us in Britain: tahini and cumin, pomegranates and parsley. Azzam and Mousawi's version of smoked aubergine dip is one of the best and simplest I've ever tasted. But what makes this book unusual is the stories it tells of modern Syria: of people exiled, bereaved or under siege, for whom the comforts of food mean more than ever. -- Bee Wilson * TLS *I loved the cumin-scented stories in SYRIA: RECIPES FROM HOME, as collated by Itab Azzam and Dina Mousawi from Syrian women on the refugee trails.

Michael Ian Borer takes us inside the burgeoning Las Vegas craft beer scene to witness how its adherents use beer to create and foster not just a local culture but a locals' culture. Through compelling, detailed first-hand accounts and interviews, Vegas Brews provides an unprecedented look into the ways that brewers, distributors, bartenders, and drinkers fight against the perceived and preconceived norm about what happens in Vegas and lay claim to a part of their city that is too often overshadowed by the bright lights of tourist sites. Borer shows how our interactions with the things we care aboutand the ways that we care about how they're made, treated, and consumedcan lead to new senseTrade Review"Borer makes a crucial contribution by drawing attention to the ways people still make places as well, in their day-to-day lives through symbolic engagement with place reputations and their consequences." * American Journal of Sociology *"Vegas Brews captures the stories of the emergence of craft brewers within the unique sociology of Las Vegas, cultivating an oasis in the desert for beer drinkers in Nevada." -- Paul Gatza, Director of the Brewers Association"Is there a place for authenticity in a world of artifice and consumerism? Focusing on the microbrewery scene in Las Vegas, Michael Ian Borer answers this question by showing us in detail how collaboration, craftsmanship, skill, honor, and place-making coexist side by side. Rich in ethnographic detail, Vegas Brews is a great contribution to the study of how culture can shape the city landscape, and how cities, in turn, can shape culture." -- Claudio E. Benzecry, author of The Opera Fanatic: Ethnography of an Obsession"This is a commendable text that will be indispensable to anyone researching urban redevelopment, consumption, brewing, or the role of community and scene in cultural production and innovation. It should also be on every ethnographic research methods reading list." * Symbolic Interaction *

    Book SynopsisFilled with stories of family, food, and culture, and interwoven with personal recipes and photographs taken by the author, My Father's Smokehouse folds the reader into a beautiful island landscape."Prescott emphasizes the importance of learning the traditional values of where one lives, gratitude for what the land and sea provide, and the responsibility to share with community."—Anchorage Daily News"[Prescott’s] book is filled with traditions, memories and stories surrounding Southeast Alaska life, including a family’s perseverance, the wisdom of Sámi and Tlingit cultures, and respect for elders and their knowledge of the culture. The smokehouse at the fish camp is named after her father."—Wrangell SentinelThe smokehouse at Mickey's Fishcamp holds more than fish. It is filled with traditions, memories, and stories of a thriving Southeast Alaskan life—of a family's perseverance, of the wisdom of Sámi and Tlingit cultures, and of respect for Elders and their knowledge of the natural world.Mickey's Fishcamp is named after three generations of Prescott fishermen who commercially fished the waters of the Inside Passage, and is located near one of the oldest Tlingit settlements in Wrangell, Alaska. Here, next to the rainforest and sea, author Vivian Faith Prescott has found her place in the world. She is a student and teacher of the natural environment—harvesting spruce tips, berries, sea lettuce, and goose tongue and processing salmon, halibut, and hooligan—who combines traditional practices with modern knowledge.Heartwarming and introspective, My Father's Smokehouse tells one woman's stories of Traditional Knowledge that is learned and passed on, from one generation to the next.Table of ContentsIntroduction: Sense of Time, Sense of Seasons: Sea and Forest Seasoning; Spruce Tip Juice & Salt FIRST FISHCAMP CYCLE Skunk Cabbage: A Harbinger of Spring: Roasted Salmon in Skunk Cabbage Leaves Harvesting the Soon Bloom: Oven-Dried Popweed Ceremony: Cute-Little-Raven's Herring Egg Salad Eat Your Trees: Spruce Tip Iced Tea My Father's Smokehouse: Fishcamp Salmon Spread; Dad's Salmon Spread Lessons from the Devil's Club Lady: Black Bean Salad with Devil's Club Tips The Underside of Leaves: Salmonberry Scones A Family of Crabbers: Island Crab Cakes; Spruce Tip Mayonnaise; Wild Alaskan Berry Sauce Art-Thinking at Mickey's Fishcamp: Salmonberry–Spruce Tip Artisan Butter Being Mummo: Foraging for Goose Tongue: Wrangell Ranch Dressing 13 Ways of Looking at Dog Salmon: Fishcamp Ikura (Salmon Caviar) Afloat: Spruce Tip–Labrador Tea–Salmonberry-Infused Water Halibut Sustains Us: Halibut Crepes Backyard Glaciers: Tote Ice Tea for Community: Labrador Tea Encounters with the Giant Pacific Octopus: Smoked Octopus Salad Red Huckleberry: Food for Songbirds: Mickey's Huckleberry Dream Pie Wrangell Winter Games: Shrimp Sandwiches Winter Stories: Salmon Patties; Spruce Tip Tartar Sauce; Fireweed Dipping Sauce SECOND FISHCAMP CYCLE Field Guide to Finding Hope: Put an Egg on it and Dip it in Coffee Gathering Red Seaweed: Dried Red Seaweed A Bunch of Hooligans: Smoked Hooligan Fresh Spring Rolls Carrying on Traditions: Spruce Tip Oatmeal; Spruce Tip Toast The Art of Salmon: Fishcamp Salmon Tacos The Treat Beneath Your Feet: Dried Sea Lettuce Muskeg Love: Muskeg Muffins Gifts from the Porcupine: Spruce Tip Chocolate Brownies It's the Little Fish in Life: Rainbow Smelt: Fried Rainbow Smelt (How Dad Does It) The Bunchberry Yoik: Mixed Alaskan Berry Hand Pies Lungs of the Island: Usnea Tea Highbush Cranberries and Traditional Values: Highbush Cranberry Jelly Listening to the Forest: "Stop the Shouting and Listen to the Sunset" Stink Currants and Landslides: Stink Currant Jelly Winter Blues: Blueberry Water; Winter Blueberry Smoothie Salmon Head Soup: Salmon Head Soup The Practice of Gifting: Spruce Tip Sugar Cookies Winter Kings: White King Salmon Chowder What I've Learned from Living at Fishcamp: Mickey's Fishcamp Tips

And to help it all happen, he’s added his 100 healthiest recipes yet. In this ground-breaking book, instead of promising a gimmicky single-fix solution to the challenge of healthy eating, Hugh extracts the knowledge, advice and healthy habits, from cutting edge research into the obesity crisis, to produce 7 simple strategies that will transform your diet and your health. Starting with the blissfully simple message that we all need to Go Whole, he leads us away from the industrial junk and processed foods that are doing so many of us so much harm and returns us to the real foods that nurture us and keep us well. Everything that follows is clear, believable and achievable. From sorting the good carbs from the bad, learning not to fear fat, and looking after our gut, to renegotiating the foods we call 'drinks' and being mindful of when to eat…and when to take a pause… Hugh guides us to a better way of eating that will last us our whole lives. It’s all offered up with reassuring tips and switches that help us act on the vital knowledge he imparts. And the 100 recipes that come with it, and their endless variations, make for a lifetime of healthy eating.Trade ReviewIf you’re remotely tempted to eat better – both for the health of the planet and yourself – this book will help you as you attempt to steer a new course * Daily Telegraph *Promises to supply you with the tools to change your eating habits * The Times *The recipes themselves will slip easily into your daily routine * Independent *

    Book SynopsisHarper's Bazaar BEST cookbook to buy now Shortlisted for Fortnum & Mason Cookery Writer of the Year - Ravinder Bhogal for work in FT Weekend Magazine --------------- Vegetables are the soul of the kitchen. Comfort and Joy is a fresh take on vegetarian and vegan cooking; not geared towards health or denial but indulging all the senses with a decadent global larder. This is a cookbook of great bounty, promising fortifying curries and stews, the warm embrace of aromatic fried bhajis and rich, satisfying desserts. For Ravinder Bhogal, food should be made and shared with abundance in mind, and this sense of pleasure is conveyed on every page. From Mango and Golden Coin Curry, Shiro Miso Udon Mushroom and Kale Carbonara to Strawberry Falooda Milk Cake, this is food as pursuit of pleasure. Ravinder is one of the best food writers in Britain today, and interwoven throughout these recipes are stories of a life led by the feel-good, life-enhancing power of vegetarian food. Raw, modern and sensual, Comfort and Joy applies Ravinder's creative ingenuity to approachable veg-centric recipes for home cooks. The vegetarian option will never again be relegated to second choice. ------------------ 'Nothing less than the most original cookery writer in Britain today' - Sathnam Sanghera ‘A gorgeous and enticing marriage of styles and flavours that is uniquely Ravinder’s’ - Claudia Roden 'A revelation-you will never look at "the vegetarian option” in the same way after diving into her inventive, bewitching and mouth watering book ' - Meera Syal 'Never has a book been so aptly named. Ravinder Bhogal is a sorceress with vegetables. You’ll find the unexpected and the startling on every page' - Diana HenryTrade Review‘A gorgeous and enticing marriage of styles and flavours that is uniquely Ravinder’s’ * Claudia Roden *'It's strange that vegetarian food has a reputation in the West for being insipid fare, when every Indian knows its flavours can be explosive. Ravinder brings the textures, colours, and tastes of this cuisine to life, adding surprising twists along the way. With this book she shows that she is nothing less than the most original cookery writer in Britain today' * Sathnam Sanghera *'Ravinder Bhogal's Comfort And Joy is a revelation-you will never look at "the vegetarian option” in the same way after diving into her inventive, bewitching and mouth watering book. There is so much I want to make and eat within its pages-from the okra fries with kale-the mango gold coin curry-the strawberry faluda cheesecake-and blissfully a whole chapter on Bread. She effortlessly plays with global culinary influences including those from India, Africa and the Middle East and conjures up what the title promises-soul-food comfort and a whole lot of joy' * Meera Syal *'This is not a book about food but a source of comfort. Bhogal writes with care and an inviting hand, bringing us not just into her kitchen, but her present, her histories, her intimacies' * Caleb Azumah Nelson *'This book is equal parts mouth watering, heart warming and identity forming. A tender and soft love letter to her family, that spans three continents. Connecting us with our ancestors, the soil, our roots. Celebrating what South Asians have known for centuries, that vegetables are an entire meal. Just like Ravinder this book is generous, open hearted, Beautiful, sexy as hell and DELICIOUS. I want to eat it all' * Anita Rani *'Never has a book been so aptly named. Ravinder Bhogal is a sorceress with vegetables. You’ll find the unexpected and the startling on every page' * Diana Henry *'Vegetarian and vegan food needn't be boring. Ravinder Bhogal's gorgeous new collection of recipes sets out to change the perception of vegetable or plant-based dishes as health conscious 'restraints' and instead re-positions them as sumptuous treats in their own right' * Harper's Bazaar *'If you like modern, inventive and cross- cultural recipes, written with warmth and love, there’s no one doing it quite like Bhogal' * Mark Diacono, Delicious magazine *'I could rave for days about Ravinder Bhogal’s new cookbook, Comfort & Joy… This book is vegetarian, in that “not so as you’d notice” way that I love: you just want to make everything. Though no less inspired, the recipes are, in my view, easier than in her previous book — there’s plenty to rustle up after work and a whole section on snacks for TV binges' * India Knight, Sunday Times Style magazine *'Her writing is surely some of the best in Britain today… this is a gamechanger in vegetarian cookbooks' * Gilly Smith, Cooking the Books podcast *

    Book SynopsisNothing causes a stir on social media platforms like a topical discussion on the latest food trend. Modern-day chefs like to think that they are creative and often claim to push boundaries of food creation, but if we want to explore real culinary creativity then we need to look to our ancestors. Writer and food historian, Seren Charrington-Hollins delves into the history of culinary experimentation to bring us some of the weirdest and most stomach-churning food delicacies to ever grace a dining table. She uncovers the rather gruesome history behind some everyday staples, uncovers bizarre and curious recipes, whilst casting a light on foods that have fallen from culinary grace, such as cows udders and tripe; showing that revulsion is just a matter of taste, times and perhaps knowledge. From pickled brains to headcheese, through to song birds and nymph's thighs, this book explores foods that have evoked disgust and delight in diners depending on culinary perspective. So pull up a chair, unfold your napkin and get ready for a highly entertaining and enlightening journey to explore what makes a recipe revolting? Be warned; you'll need a strong stomach and an open mind.
