After the success of the UK s #1 best selling student cookbook, NOSH for Students , we wanted to offer a follow-on book for those who had grown in confidence in the kitchen. We have imaginatively called this NOSH for Students Volume 2!! NOSH Volume 2 is the perfect partner to our original book and is designed for those wanting to move on to slightly more adventurous recipes, but who still want the simple approach to cooking that runs through all the NOSH books. Nobody in your house has weighing scales? That s OK. All you need in NOSH student books are a few spoons and a mug. Want to see what you are aiming for? There are photos with every recipe, to whet your appetite and inspire you to have a go. Are you still on a tight budget? We have priced up every recipe, so no more surprises at the till in the supermarket. Finished all the recipes in NOSH for Students? Here are a whole heap of new ones to have a go at.Sorry to cause confusion with this book and the previous book NOSH for Graduates. We have now updated the description of this book to explain things a little clearer. This replaces the previous, now discontinued, book NOSH for Graduates. We loved NOSH for Graduates, but it never managed to reach as many people as we would have liked in its previous format. So we decided to substantially revamp the book to make it perfect for our students and VOLUME 2 WAS BORN?! We hope this clears up any confusion. Thanks The NOSH Family.

When being tired and hungry is the default setting of adult life, we crave comfort over complexity. That's the ethos of Home Food: real, delicious, achievable family food, hold the garnish. Food columnist and recipe writer Elizabeth Hewson's approach is all scaling down what cooking should be, so it can be nourishing and still enjoyable – less pressure, more ease. These are recipes that don't chase trends, viral moments, or complicated techniques. From an It's going to be OK midweek chicken stew, to a Soup for exhausted people (a real dump-and-simmer tomato and chicken heartener), to a whole chapter of one-pots and a range of midweek pastas – these recipes are for people living real, imperfect lives— the ones caught in the relentless rhythm of daily life. So what should Home Food really be? Flexible, permissive recipes 'with give', in case you don't have something at home and just need to get on with it. Sometimes you just need to throw something together, or one pot is the max that is going to get cleaned; or sometimes trying a little harder on the weekend, so you can batch for next week; and sometimes, well, you just want pasta followed by pudding. Including plenty of veg-forward recipes, plenty of tips and tricks for making the most of your precious moments in the kitchen, and delivered with the signature Hewson elegant ease, this is the book for when dinner needs to just be dinner – with a little nourishing nostalgia along the way.
