THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER From Erin French, owner and chef of
the critically acclaimed The Lost Kitchen, comes a life-affirming
memoir about survival, renewal and the pleasure of bringing joy to
people through food. Erin French grew up barefoot on a farm, fell
in love with food as a teenager working the line at her dad's diner
and found her calling as a professional chef at her tiny restaurant
The Lost Kitchen, tucked into a 19th-century mill-now a
world-renowned dining destination. In Finding Freedom in the Lost
Kitchen, Erin tells her story of multiple rock-bottoms, from
medical student to pregnant teen, of survival as a jobless single
mother, of pills that promised release but delivered addiction, of
a man who seemed to offer salvation but ripped away her very sense
of self. And of her son who became her guiding light as she slowly
rebuilt her personal and culinary life around the solace she found
in food-as a source of comfort, a sense of place, as a way of
creating community and making something of herself, despite
seemingly impossible odds. Set against the backdrop of rural Maine
and its lushly intense, bountiful seasons, Erin French's
rollercoaster memoir reveals struggles that have taken every ounce
of her strength to overcome, and the passion and courage behind the
fairytale success of The Lost Kitchen.

2016 Palestine on a Plate showcases the wide-ranging, vibrant and
truly delicious dishes of Palestine, introducing the reader to
traditional methods, cooking styles and flavours. Palestinian food
is not just about street-food dishes - it is about the home, where
families cook and eat together every day in a way that generations
before them have always done. In this book celebrated chef Joudie
Kalla pays tribute to family, cooking and home by taking
inspiration from the rich heritage of Palestinian cooking. Cooked
with the ingredients that Joudie's mother and grandmother use, and
their grandmothers before them, experience the flavours of
Palestine through: zingy fattet hummus (tangy yogurt, chickpeas and
hummus served over toasted pita bread and drizzled in toasted pine
nuts and pomegranate seeds); satisfyingly spiced makloubeh (an
upside-down spiced rice dish with lamb shoulder and fried
aubergines); sticky lemon-infused yalanji (vine leaves stuffed with
a herby tabbouleh); and sublimely decadent awameh (honey
dumplings). Colourful, stunning photography evoking the vibrancy
and romance of the country will bring Palestine into your home and
make you fall in love with this wonderful way of cooking and
enjoying food.

with over 100 creative, seasonal recipes from Hailee Catalano
Growing up cooking the Sunday gravy, meatballs, and pasta alongside her
Italian American grandmother, Hailee Catalano developed a huge passion
for food. This passion led her to the Culinary Institute of America,
and then to cooking in restaurants. But somewhere along the way, Hailee
started to miss the home cooking that made her fall in love with food
in the first place. Restaurants made it seem like beautifully made food
was too difficult to recreate at home.
In By Heart, she presents over 100 restaurant-quality recipes designed
to be made in your home kitchen. You'll find seasonal pastas (Pasta
alla Norcina with Roasted Squash), veggie-forward recipes designed to
make the most of your CSA box (Caponata with Dried Cherries and Green
Olives), breads (Hearty Seeded Rye Bread), butters (Calabrian Chili
Honey Butter), condiments (Chicago-Style Fennel Giardiniera), perfect
beach sandwiches (Brie and Butter Sandwich with Shallot-y Frisée),
simple sweets (Malted Milk Butter Cookies), and so much more.
Inspired by her professional training and love of seasonal cooking,
Hailee includes details on how to keep a calm kitchen, navigate a
farmers market, make your own broths and the perfect sourdough loaf,
and plan out a Friday Night Dinner menu. Carefully crafted from the
heart, this is a book you'll return to again and again.

And with her simple but revolutionary method, she has taught masterclasses to give both professionals and amateurs the skills to cook instinctively.

From an early age, Grace Dent was hungry. As a little girl growing
up in Currock, Carlisle, she yearned to be something bigger, to go
somewhere better. Hungry traces her story from growing up eating
beige food to becoming one of Britain's best-loved food writers.
It's also everyone's story - from cheese and pineapple hedgehogs
and treats with your nan, to the exquisite joy of a chip butty
covered in vinegar and too much salt in the school canteen on a
grey day. And the Cadbury's Fruit & Nut from a hospital vending
machine that tells a loved one you really care. Grace's snapshot of
how we have lived, laughed and eaten over the past 40 years reveals
the central role food plays in either bringing us together or
driving us apart - from toasting a large glass of warm Merlot to
grimly polishing off a wilted salad. Heartfelt, witty and joyous,
Hungry shows us what we've always known to be true. Food, friends
and family are the indispensable ingredients of a life well lived.
The fashion for small bites and street food still holds sway. Many

these snacks and they are fun and easy to prepare. This

breakfasts, lunches, simple snacks, easy suppers and desserts.
Think crepes, galettes, enchiladas, burritos, latkes, chapatis,
roti, dosa, brik, kebab wraps, Chinese pancakes, American griddle
cakes and buttermilk dessert pancakes... it's a truly exciting mix.
Perfect for students, busy singles, family cooks, children and
foodies interested in international recipe collections and
streetfood.
