From Masterchef: The Professionals quarter-finalist Carla Lamont. This book shares the sensual beauty and bounty of the Isle of Mull through the eyes of restauranteur and MasterChef: The Professionals 2020 quarter-finalist Carla Lamont and photographer Dr Sam Jones. At Ninth Wave Restaurant, an enterprising couple have created one of Scotland's hidden culinary gems. Multiple winner of Best Restaurant Award - VisitScotland, and two-time Winner of Restaurant of the Year - Highlands & Islands, Carla and her rugged fisherman husband Jonny have put Mull firmly on the food map. After lovingly renovating a granite bothy on their windswept croft, they opened Ninth Wave as the first high-end restaurant on the Ross of Mull. The food is an exhilarating blend of the traditional and modern, using the wonderful natural larder of Mull and influences from exotic cuisines from all over the world. Carla has gathered her experiences in this book full of magical imagery, tantalising recipes and quirky anecdotes about cooking, love, life and the challenges of running a restaurant at the edge of the Hebrides. Gloriously illustrated with atmospheric food and landscape pictures of an award-winning photographer, this memoir and cookbook captures the hedonistic joy of all that is the Ninth Wave experience.

'Joe just makes the most delicious food that happens to have no meat or fish in it.' - Rachel Roddy 'When Joe Woodhouse cooks then you know that something very, very good will result from much happy time spent in the kitchen. For such a modern cook, the flavours are deep, rich and magical. That there is no meat is happily forgotten here, for this is about great cooking.' Jeremy Lee Swapping just one meat dish for a plant-based one saves greenhouse gas emissions that are equivalent to the energy used to charge your phone for two years. In this new collection of recipes, a companion to the highly acclaimed Your Daily Veg, long-time vegetarian Joe Woodhouse celebrates everyday, seasonal vegetables in a fresh, modern way with dishes that always deliver on flavour and satisfaction. Focusing either on one core vegetable or a group of similar vegetables - including celeriac, beetroot and squash, tomatoes and fennel, mushrooms, onions and leeks, and beans, pulses and seeds - the recipes follow a simple format of short ingredients lists and easy-to-follow instructions. Praise for Your Daily Veg: 'One of those cookbooks that you can tell will go into heavy rotation in your kitchen. Each chapter is given over to a different, common vegetable and how you can turn it into a satisfying and straightforward meal.' - Tim Lewis, Observer Food Monthly

When he wrote about Jim Lahey s bread in the New York Times, Mark Bittman s excitement was palpable: The loaf is incredible, a fine-bakery quality, European-style boule that is produced more easily than by any other technique I ve used, and it will blow your mind. Here, thanks to Jim Lahey, New York s premier baker, is a way to make bread at home that doesn t rely on a fancy bread machine or complicated kneading techniques. The secret to Jim Lahey s bread is slow-rise fermentation. As Jim shows in My Bread, with step-by-step instructions followed by step-by-step pictures, the amount of labor you put in amounts to 5 minutes: mix water, flour, yeast, and salt, and then let time work its magic no kneading necessary. The process couldn t be more simple, or the results more inspiring. Here finally Jim Lahey gives us a cookbook that enables us to fit quality bread into our lives at home."

The original hardback gained universal praise; 'A fascinating account' said the TLS; echoed by national and local press; 'A fascinating book full of off-beat information', wrote Derek Cooper. This book looks beyond the brilliant colours of the sweet-shop shelf and consider the ingenuity of sugar boiling and the manufacture of those intriguing avatars of childhood happiness: the humbug, the gobstopper, the peardrop and the stick of rock. As well as a history, it is also a recipe book, with twenty tried and tested methods for sweets ancient and modern. Who has not wondered how they got the marbling into humbugs and the fantastic patterns into Just William's gobstoppers? The byways of knowledge that are illuminated make this so rewarding. Did you know how they got the letters into rock? How they twisted barley sugar? The difference between fudge and tablet? The connection between humbugs and an Arab sweet from 13th-century Spain (where it was borrowed it from the Persians)? |
