In this meditation on cooking and eating, Tamar Adler weaves
philosophy and instruction into approachable lessons on feeding
ourselves well. "An Everlasting Meal "demonstrates the implicit
frugality in cooking. In essays on forgotten skills such as
boiling, suggestions for what to do when cooking seems like a
chore, and strategies for preparing, storing, and transforming
ingredients for a week's worth of satisfying, delicious meals,
Tamar reminds us of the practical pleasures of eating. She explains
what cooks in the world's great kitchens know: that the best meals
rely on the ends of the meals that came before them. With that in
mind, she shows how we often throw away the bones, skins, and peels
we need to make our food both more affordable and better. She also
reminds readers that almost all kitchen mistakes can be remedied.
Summoning respectable meals from the humblest ingredients, Tamar
breathes life into the belief that we can start cooking from
wherever we are, with whatever we have.
An empowering, indispensable work, "An Everlasting Meal "is an
elegant testimony to the value of cooking.

entry botanically illustrated in colour to help you identify the
plant or flower, along with its history and folklore, and its
culinary and medicinal uses, from the traditional to the unusual.
The ultimate guide for nature-lovers and foragers alike, discover

One of the world's most renowned chefs, Heston Blumenthal has made
his name creating such original - and some might say bizarre -
dishes as Snail Porridge and Nitrogen Scrambled Egg & Bacon Ice
Cream at his internationally acclaimed restaurant, The Fat Duck.
Heston decided, though, that it was time to go back to both his and
our roots and to focus his creative talent on reinventing some of
our most well-known and abused dishes. In order to do this he
travelled around the world in search of 'perfect' versions of eight
dishes which represent the essence of our culinary heritage: Roast
Chicken & Roast Potatoes Pizza Bangers & Mash Steak
Spaghetti Bolognese Fish & Chips Black Forest Gateau Treacle
Tart & Ice Cream Everybody's idea of 'perfection' is different,
and so Heston, drawing on interviews with experts and cooks as well
as using his own culinary and scientific research, sets out to
discover what makes these standards so great. He explores the
origins of each dish, how to find the best ingredients, and of
course the many different ways - and whys - of cooking them to
perfection. He reveals priceless culinary tips along the way:
everything from how to cut potatoes for flawless frying, to what
makes the choicest beef, to the secret ingredients in the perfect
spaghetti Bolognese, to capturing the essence of a fish and chip
shop in a perfume bottle, to making aerated chocolate bars at home
with a vacuum cleaner. In Search of Perfection examines the role of
food in our lives and memories and is a completely original,
inspiring and fascinating exploration of these kitchen classics.
