Fashion and hospitality entrepreneur Christina Ong has always believed food should deliver pleasure and confidence, as well as health and energy. This approach to cooking evolved out of her family home to inspire the kitchens of her award-winning COMO Hotels and Resorts worldwide. Called COMO Shambhala Cuisine after her holistic wellness brand, COMO Shambhala, the philosophy embraces all that is seasonal, pure and sustainable in delicious, nourishing combinations. In this new book, 147 classics from the COMO Shambhala kitchens from the Turks and Caicos in the Caribbean to the mountains of Bhutan have been meticulously re-configured to introduce COMO Shambhala Cuisine to home cooks. Spanning no-cook juice combinations and raw salads to luxurious dishes suitable for entertaining, the recipes are organised in logical chapters for easy navigation. Each recipe's standout nutritional benefits are clearly highlighted and simply communicated. The reader can therefore choose menus according to personal taste and occasion, following the recipes precisely or experimenting with the different techniques and flavour combinations. The result is pure pleasure with each recipe delivering the vitality needed to juggle busy lifestyles, hectic travel schedules and the push-and-pull of family and work.
Fresh as fruits picked straight from the tree, this trio of notebooks features vibrant cover artwork of pomegranates, lemons and oranges accented with bright bursts of neon ink.
The power of infused waters, teas and tonics is increasingly sought after – for boosting good physical and mental health. As the mainstream interest in healthy eating continues to grow, so too has the interest in healthy drinks, and especially in lowering your soda (and, obviously, alcohol) intake. This book contains 70 nutrient-rich hot and cold infused water recipes, guaranteed to not only quench your thirst, but make you feel better too. Recipes use myriad fruits and herbs, including lemon, kiwi, pomegranate, peach, mint, rosemary, cranberries, cucumber, raspberry and vanilla. No doubt, your palette will be just as satisfied as your body. The best thing about infusing water – unlike, perhaps, kombucha, kefir, and other natural home brewed sodas – is that there’s no fermentation required. There’s no waiting weeks for your precious brew, only to find out, well after the wait, that something went wrong and you have to start all over again. Water, the most precious resource on Earth, is far more forgiving. So, it’s time you get Infused!

One of the Food Programme's Cookbooks of the Year 2021! 'The recipes are nourishing, so full of goodness, so tasty and a joy to cook and eat, and I have cooked a lot from it.' Leyla Kazim '"Good to eat" recipes indeed, as well as lots of things which are "good to know". David wears his knowledge lightly - about the science and nutrition of food - so that the focus can remain on making the food delicious. It's all there, though, for those who want the 'why's as well as the yums...' Yotam Ottolenghi 'Revitalise your diet and feel well-fed at the same time.' Dan Lepard 'Good to Eat is full of tasty morsels of both knowledge and recipes that you and all your gut microbes will love! A fantastic book.' Tim Spector 'A great number of books have been written by Bake Off winners, and David Atherton's is one of the best.' Delicious Magazine 100 fresh, healthy pescatarian recipes 'People often think that healthy eating means restricting foods or counting calories. But for me this form of 'healthy eating' was not sustainable. Plus, it was dull. I hated cutting out the food I loved best - bread, cake, pizza, Yorkshire puddings! That realisation changed how I approached food. Food should be healthy, but so should our relationship with food. So instead of depriving myself of my favourite dishes, I found new, easy ways to make them better for me.' - David Atherton GOOD TO EAT is a book that indulges our craving for baked goods, filling foods and sustaining meals but leaves us feeling good. With a few simple tweaks - like using root veg to minimise the use of sugar or trying a plant-based alternative - you can enjoy what you love to eat while nourishing your body. Food is one of the longest relationships of our lives and what we put on the plate should be more important than what we are leaving off it. With 100 exciting new recipes from the 2019 Great British Bake Off winner GOOD TO EAT promises fresh and filling suppers, sweet treats with a healthy spin, hearty salads to pick and mix, soups and more. David will leave you eating and living well.
