Whether you have younger or older children, just one kid or a whole
tribe, whether you are a single carer or you have a partner to work
with, the one constant is you are busy. Juggling work, school runs,
homework, tidying your destroyed house and maintaining any kind of
social life, to name just the basics, is hard! Often the first
thing to take a hit when we get busy is what we eat. 'NOSH for Busy
Mums & Dads' is here to help. This book is designed to minimize
stress levels, to show how simple meals are possible, to inspire
you to cook from fresh ingredients, and hopefully to bring a little
bit of fun back into the kitchen.
THE NUMBER 1 BESTSELLING COOKBOOK - THE ONLY BAKING BOOK YOU'LL
EVER NEED In BAKE Paul Hollywood shares his best ever recipes for
classic bakes. Cakes, biscuits and cookies, breads and flatbreads,
pizza and doughnuts, pastries and pies, and showstopping desserts:
this book has it all. From classic cakes like the Victoria Sandwich
and Chocolate Fudge Cake, through brilliant breads like his
foolproof Sourdough, to savoury and sweet pastries like Sausage
Rolls and Danish Pastries, these are the only recipes you'll need
to create perfectly delicious bakes time and time again. With more
years as a professional baker than he'd care to remember and over
10 years judging the best baking show on TV, Paul has created,
tested and tasted a huge number of bakes. He has also travelled
widely and learnt so much about the craft he loves. For Paul, one
of the most joyful things about baking is how it evolves as we
discover new techniques, ingredients and influences. As our
knowledge improves, so do our recipes. Paul combines every tip and
trick he has learned together with his incredible technical
know-how to create the ultimate collection of incredible bakes.
Though many of the rules deal with matters of etiquette--such as
whom should rise for whom in mixed company--many concern far deeper
matters that touch on personal philosophies about judgment, honor,
success and conscience. As a peek into the manners of a bygone age,
this is an intriguing work. As a peek into a great mean in his
formative years, this is an extraordinary one.He was an American
Founding Father and the new nation's first president, but before
that, GEORGE WASHINGTON(1732-1799) was an excruciatingly correct
child with a passion for propriety. At the age of 14, he copied out
110 rules for elegant deportment from a work created by Jesuits in
the 16th century as a guide for young gentlemen of quality, and
through these rules, which he took greatly to heart, we can see the
beginning of the man Washington would become taking shape.
