**New for 2021: celebrate the life and legacy of the inimitable food writer with WORLD TRAVEL, Bourdain's guide to the global food scene, compiled by his long-time assistant and cookbook co-author** Brash, wild, original and badass. This is Anthony Bourdain's interpretation of a normal cookbook. As a restaurant professional, Bourdain spent his life on the fringes of normality - he worked while normal people played, and played while normal people slept. Since then he has settled (kind of) into family life and is cooking for the people he loves rather than people who pay. These are the recipes he turns to when called in for pancake service at sleepover parties or when preparing a violence-free family dinner. Each and every word is informed by his years in the industry and a life dedicated to food. This is a man who has declared the club sandwich as America's Enemy and wants you to understand the principles of Bad Sandwich Theory. He has distilled his views on dessert to this: it should always be Stilton. With a striking Ralph Steadman illustration for the cover and photography that somehow manages to be both strangely beautiful and utterly grotesque, this cookbook - Bourdain's first in ten years - is a home-cooking, home-entertaining cookbook like no other.

SAAM is die Suid-Afrikaanse huiskoskampioen Errieda du Toit se uitsonderlike kookboek oor kos wat ons die meeste geniet en die kultuur waarmee resepte in gemeenskapsresepteboekies gedeel word. Errieda verdiep haar in 150 boekies wat oor 100 jaar uitgegee is en vorm ’n spesiale band met die resepte op die omkrulblaaie vol kosvlekke uit dié versamelings. In dié eiesoortige resepteboek vier Errieda ons noue verhouding met die nederige gemeenskapsboekies, die invloed daarvan op ons koskultuur en die kenmerkende gees van samewerking. SAAM is ’n genotvolle huldeblyk aan die genre wat in ’n moderne trant en effe tong-in-die-kies inspirasie in ons kosherinneringe vind. Die verskeidenheid resepte is ruimmhartig, gasvry en vol warmte soos die huiskokke wat dit oorspronklik in die boekies gedeel het – die aanhouers (langasem-resepte wat bly oorleef), die flatervryes (epiese staatmakers), kos vir oor-en-weer-kuiers en retrogunstelinge wat ons as erfeniskos koester. Met net die regte balans tussen nostalgie, modernisering van ou resepte en boeiende vertellinge is SAAM dié boek vir huiskokke, kookboekversamelaars en almal wat nuuskierig en entoesiasties is oor Suid-Afrikaanse kos.

The Times Best Food Books of 2022 The Independent Best Cookbook of the Year 2022 The new book from award-winning cookery writer and co-founder of #CookForUkraine 'Heartfelt storytelling and truly beautiful, honest food' Jamie Oliver 'Original, thought-provoking, beautiful. A wonderful book' Diana Henry 'This beautiful book makes me feel I'm in Olia's kitchen, which is just as much a joy as the exquisite but simple recipes' Nigella Lawson 100 comforting recipes that unite us no matter where we are from and where we end up In her most personal book yet, Olia Hercules distills a lifetime of kitchen curiosity into her 100 most loved recipes.

'A beautiful book: compellingly written, tender and thoughtful' Ruby Tadoh 'A warm, incandescent memoir about identity, food, family, relationships' Annie Lord 'The type of book that I would buy for friends on repeat' Ravneet Gill Growing up in a Chinese takeaway in rural Wales, Angela Hui was made aware at a very young age of just how different she and her family were seen by her local community. From attacks on the shopfront (in other words, their home), to verbal abuse from customers, and confrontations that ended with her dad wielding the meat cleaver; life growing up in a takeaway was far from peaceful. But alongside the strife, there was also beauty and joy in the rhythm of life in the takeaway and in being surrounded by the food of her home culture. Family dinners before service, research trips to Hong Kong, preparing for the weekend rush with her brothers - the takeaway is a hive of activity before a customer even places their order of 'egg-fried rice and chop suey'. Bringing readers along on the journey from Angela's earliest memories in the takeaway to her family closing the shop after 30 years in business, this is a brilliantly warm and immersive memoir from someone on the other side of the counter.

Green with envy; red-faced with embarrassment; in a blue mood; or in the pink: Colour "speaks" well before words. And Pantone (R) is the renowned authority on colour and colour communication, known to artists, designers, art directors, businesses and students around the world. Central to their understanding of colour are the subtle cues that affect how we relate to our environment and each other. Now, in collaboration with Italy's premiere cookbook publisher, Pantone brings its expertise on the relationship between colour and mood to the subject of food. Fifty-six step-by-step recipes are gathered around eight colours and their variations, including: Yellow (Tarte Citron); Magenta (Sea Bream Tartar with Rose Petals); Green (Savoury Asparagus Tart); Blue (Salad with Borage Flowers); Purple (Fox Grape Pudding); Orange (Tandoori Chicken with Basmati Rice); Red (Round Meringue with Wild Strawberries); and Brown (Coffee Semifreddo). Each recipe collection is introduced with an essay by a Pantone colour expert on that colour's mood-food connection. And each recipe is styled to perfection and photographed in Pantone's full-colour glory. Added features include 40 suggested menus combining colours for occasions (brunch, a children's party, happy hour, a dessert buffet); cuisines (Italian, Mediterranean, Japanese, French); meals for every season; and many other themes. Also included is an extensive guide to necessary equipment, utensils and ingredients. And 50 hand-drawn colour how-to sketches demonstrate styling and presentation techniques for preparing dazzling dishes in the home kitchen. With a sleek modern layout and design, Pantone Foodmood is bound in chic, black die-cut board. The ultimate concept cookbook - perfect for gift-giving - it will be coveted by cooks, food-lovers, Pantone devotees, and all those who love books beautifully made.
