Book SynopsisA radically practical guide to making food choices that are good for you, others, and the planet. Is organic really worth it? Are eggs ok to eat? If so, which ones are best for you, and for the chicken—Cage-Free, Free-Range, Pasture-Raised? What about farmed salmon, soy milk, sugar, gluten, fermented foods, coconut oil, almonds? Thumbs-up, thumbs-down, or somewhere in between? Using three criteria—Is it good for me? Is it good for others? Is it good for the planet?—Sophie Egan helps us navigate the bewildering world of food so that we can all become conscious eaters. To eat consciously is not about diets, fads, or hard-and-fast rules. It’s about having straightforward, accurate information to make smart, thoughtful choices amid the chaos of conflicting news and marketing hype. An expert on food’s impact on human and environmental health, Egan organizes the book into four categories—stuff that comes from the ground, stuff that comes from animals, stuff that comes from factories, and stuff that’s made in restaurant kitchens. This practical guide offers bottom-line answers to your most top-of-mind questions about what to eat. “The clearest, most useful food book I own.”—A. J. Jacobs, New York Times bestselling authorTrade Review“…smart and sensible approach to eating consciously…” —Michael Pollan, New York Times bestselling author "If you’ve ever stalled out in the refrigerated aisle debating the environmental merits of oat vs. almond milk, add this book to your bedside table. Sophie Egan provides clear, non-judgmental information... It’s a practical guide that empowers readers to understand the plethora of labels and claims out there and make informed food choices every time you go to the store." —Bon Appetit.com “The clearest, most useful food book I own. Thank you, Sophie, from my stomach, farm animals everywhere, and my great-great-grandchildren.”—A.J. Jacobs, New York Times bestselling author “Thought-provoking… Egan displays a talent for making the environmental complexities of food choices comprehensible… [A] thorough primer to combining health consciousness and environmental responsibility.” – Publishers Weekly starred review “Egan (Devoured: How We Eat Defines Who We Are) presents a voice of reason in the cacophony of advice about food and diet that surrounds us…Recommended for everyone who eats, particularly those who hope to improve their own health and the planet’s by doing so.”—Library Journal starred review “Readers will find much to take away, including reminders that our consumer behavior can drive change and that what's good for us and good for the planet often align.”—Booklist

Book Synopsis“Gorgeous. . . . A treat even if you don’t feel like cooking.”—The New York TimesSavor is a stunning cookbook that celebrates rustic good food made from natural ingredients. Experiencing the bounty of nature is one of life’s great joys: foraging, gardening, fishing, and, ultimately, cooking casual meals, whether indoors or outside over an open fire. From her home in the mountains of Aspen, Colorado, Ilona Oppenheim devises recipes that make the best use of the abundance of her surroundings: foraged mushrooms and berries, fresh-caught fish, pasture-raised dairy, and home-milled flours. Oppenheim’s recipes rely on quality ingredients and simple cooking techniques to make nutritious, family-centric dishes, including Kale and Feta Quiche, Ricotta and Roasted Fig Bruschetta, Vegetable Soup with Mini Meatballs, Porcini Fettuccine, Tomato Tart, Oatmeal Baked Apples, and Pear Crisp, among others. Many of these recipes call for only a handful of ingredients and require very few steps, resulting in dishes that are easy to make and fresh, wholesome, and delicious too. This romantic and delicious portrayal of living in harmony with nature will appeal to gardeners, gatherers, foragers, and home cooks but will also transport the armchair reader straight to the forest. The natural beauty of mountains, valleys, streams, and vast swaths of land jumps out from these stunning pages.Trade Review“A lavishly illustrated collection of recipes for fresh, healthy eating.”—The New York Times Book Review “Gorgeous. . . . A treat even if you don’t feel like cooking.”—The New York Times “Capturing a connection between sourcing and sustainability is the focus of Savor. . . . A new tome on fresh and wholesome cooking.”—Hamptons magazine “With a focus on dishes composed of only a few ingredients each, Oppenheim, a designer who lives in Aspen, Colo., lays out a novice-friendly guide to various foraging staples like wild mushrooms and fresh-caught fish.” —Publishers Weekly “Comforting.” —Green Living magazine “Influenced by life in the mountains, connecting to nature, and enjoying good food, Ilona Oppenheim, who splits her time between Aspen and Miami, delivers her first cookbook, Savor. It [is] a love letter to summers spent foraging, fishing, and cooking for her family in the Rockies.” —Denver Life magazine “Ilona is quite brilliant at getting the very best out of raw ingredients. The decisions she makes about how to prepare ingredients result in a depth of flavor and texture that I find remarkable.” —Eli Zabar, restaurateur “Ilona’s inventive and inspiring recipes, her lyrical and beautifully written stories, and emotive photographs take us into her world—a world where cooking is an expression of love.” —Ruth Rogers, chef and owner, The River Café “This is one of the most beautiful books. I want to savor every page. As a mother and someone who really cares about wholesome nutrition, the book’s approach and recipes speak to me.” —Elle Macpherson, WelleCo co-founder

Book SynopsisCarbs aren’t causing your weight gain. Dairy may not be the reason for your upset stomach. And your liver isn’t fatty because of the occasional hamburger. It’s time to enjoy eating everything again—and to reclaim our health along the way. Eat Everything offers a better alternative to complicated, minimally effective, and highly restrictive diets. Physician Dawn Harris Sherling lays out compelling new evidence implicating food additives as the real culprits behind diet-related diseases and shares simple, actionable advice to heal. We’re constantly told to fear carbs, gluten, and dairy, and we turn to strict diets to solve our health problems. Yet Americans still have one of the highest rates of obesity and diabetes in the world, and millions suffer from digestive ailments like irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). Digging into emerging research, Dr. Sherling realized it’s not the foods but the food additives, especially emulsifiers, that are at the root of our problems. Our bodies can’t digest them, but they feed our microbiomes and they’re everywhere in the ultra-processed foods that make up about half of our daily diets. In this refreshing and accessible guide, readers will learn: • How to lose weight without a restrictive diet, • Why so many popular ultra-processed foods are actively harmful to our bodies, • How to navigate eating at restaurants—for any meal or occasion, • Tips for filling our grocery bags with real food, • Why avoiding food additives is beneficial for our bodies and minds, • How to embrace healthful cooking at home, with 30 delicious recipes, Dr. Sherling lays out the research on food additives and offers a straightforward guide to eating just about everything (yes, even bread, pasta, and ice cream!) without pain, worry, or guilt. This isn’t just another restrictive diet in disguise; it’s a call to rediscover our love of real food.

Book SynopsisEat the rainbow. Cook Colour celebrates the beauty of fresh fruits, vegetables, herbs, and spices, in a collection of 100 all-natural, monochrome recipes that reveal a tantalizing world of taste, texture, and seasonal eating like you've never seen before. What is the flavour of sunshine? The taste of forest green? Does the red of a pepper evoke the warmth of its spice? Cook Colour reveals a whole new way of thinking about food. Author Maria Zizka introduces readers to ideas from colour theory and cooking sciences, explaining how to master food styling and cooking techniques to enhance and preserve colour, without any artificial additives. But cooking by colour isn't just about looks; it is an approach that draws connections between aesthetics, seasonality, and flavour. Arranged in a gradient, the recipes begin with creamy shades of white-from a coconut cod and rice bowl to a garlicky bean and cauliflower salad. Yellows evoke the bright flavours in Margarita Bars, reds bring forward fiery tastes in dishes like Mapo Ragù with Rice Cakes, and greens highlight fresh and herbal flavours with dishes like Matcha and Mint Ice Cream Sundae or Zhoug-Marinated Feta and Fava Toasts. Blues, purples, and blacks present revelations: a butterfly pea flower boa stuffed with blue oyster mushroom, a classic Italian grape focaccia turned on its head with the addition of purple ube, and elegant black tahini cookies. To tie it all together, Zizka presents a special section of Colour Menus, where she teaches readers how to use food to create palettes that evoke a sense of season, theme, or even a place: a Valentine's menu decorated with red and pink indulgences, a spring menu featuring all fresh flavours and pastel tones, a seafood-focused menu of blue and coral hues to conjure a tropical ocean vibe. Cook Colour is a celebration of eating beautifully and creatively, at any moment and for any occasion.Table of ContentsIntroduction What Does It Mean to Cook in Color?
