A New York Times Bestseller Matty Matheson, star of Viceland's It's
Suppertime and Dead Set On Life, reveals his favorite recipes and
stories in a cookbook that his devoted fans have been waiting for.
Matty Matheson is known as much for his amazing food as his love
for life, positive mental attitude, and epic Instagram account.
This debut cookbook is about Matty's memories of the foods that
have defined who he is. With a drive to share his zest for life, he
creates dishes within these pages that reinterpret the flavors of
his youth in Canada, as well as the restaurant fare for which he
has become so well-known. Interpretations of classics like Seafood
Chowder, Scumbo: Dad's Gumbo, and Rappie Pie appear alongside
restaurant recipes like Bavette, Pigtail Tacos, and his infamous
P&L Burger. This is a very personal cookbook, full of essays
and headnotes that share Matty's life-from growing up in Fort Erie,
exploring the wonders of Prince Edward Island, struggling and
learning as a young chef in Toronto, and, eventually, his rise to
popularity as one of the world's most recognizable food
personalities. His no-nonsense approach to food makes these recipes
practical enough for all, while his creativity will entice seasoned
cooks. This book is like cooking alongside Matty, sharing stories
that are equal parts heartwarming and inappropriate while helping
you cook dishes that are full of love. Matty Matheson: A Cookbook
is a new collection of recipes from one of today's most beloved
chefs.
Plenty of people talk about farm-to-table dining these days. But on
Vancouver Island and the surrounding Gulf Islands, it's truly a way
of life. And why not, when there is so much abundance to choose
from? From the Comox Valley to the Cowichan to Salt Spring Island,
you'll find everything from truffles to tea, passion fruit to Pinot
Noir, water buffalo to the most delicately briny oysters. Island
Eats is a tribute to the vibrant food culture of Vancouver Island
and the Gulf Islands and the celebration of a passionate culinary
community built on the edge of a continent. Whether they're
shucking oysters and rolling pasta just for you, pouring you a
glass of local wine, telling you about the best surf beach or
hiking trail or the cool new craft brewery in town, the chefs,
mixologists, and food artisans profiled in this cookbook have
contributed to the heartfelt food traditions of a rare culinary
destination. Featuring more than 80 signature dishes, from a
classic salmon chowder to island-foraged chantarelle risotto, apple
pie waffles to bannock ice-cream sandwich, this inspired collection
boasts locally-minded, soul-satisfying dishes that readers will
want to make again and again.
Chili-spiked carrots. Skillet-charred Brussels sprouts. Mashed
potatoes brightened with harissa and pistachios. These are just
three ways to put vegetables in the center of your plate. Here in
the U.S., meat is cheap and has been in the center of the plate for
centuries. The rest of the world, however, knows how to approach
vegetables, grains and beans not only with respect but with a
fresh, lively approach, one that transforms the ordinary into the
extraordinary. To get a vegetable education, we traveled to Athens
to learn how winter vegetable stews could taste light and bright,
not hearty and heavy. In Cairo, we tasted eggplant and potatoes
that punched up flavor with bold pops of texture from whole spices.
And in Puglia, Italy, we had a revelatory bite of zucchini enriched
by ricotta cheese and lemon. This is a world of high-heat roasts,
unctuous braises, drizzles of honey, and stir-fries aromatic with
ginger and garlic. And with 250 recipes, the possibilities are
nearly endless: A simple head of cauliflower can become Cauliflower
Shawarma, Sichuan Dry-Fried Cauliflower, or Curried Cauliflower
Rice with Peas and CashewsHumble cabbage travels the world to
become Butter-Roasted Cabbage with Citrus, Hazelnuts and Mustard;
Hot and Sour Stir-Fried Cabbage; and Thai-Style Coleslaw with Mint
and CilantroMushrooms are transformed into Stir-Fried Mushrooms
with Asparagus and Lemon Grass or Miso Soup with Mixed Vegetables
and Tofuand greens get the Milk Street treatment in dishes like
Pozole with Collard Greens; Hot Oil-Flashed Chard with Ginger,
Scallions and Chili; and Persian-Style Swiss Chard and Herb Omelet
It's never too late to get your vegetable PhD.
We all love to eat, and some foods conjure up feelings of security,
memories of childhood, a sense of well-being and even nostalgia.
This book contains over 200 simple, fuss-free recipes that will
comfort, nurture and lift the spirits. Soups, sandwiches, rice and
pasta dishes, fish and meat recipes, casseroles, fry-ups, roast
dinners, desserts, cakes and bakes are all included. Traditional
everyday dishes such as beef stew and dumplings sit happily
alongside recipes from around the world that have become a part of
the contemporary cook's standard repertoire. This volume is a
delight to read, full of treats that tempt the appetite and are a
pleasure to share.

master of accessible cooking that looks good and makes you feel
good. She is obsessed with simple recipes that encourage you to
cook from scratch most nights of the week. Speed and simplicity are
key. 'As a chef I talk to people about food every day. People talk
to me in person, on Instagram and they even stop me in the street
to chat about food - I absolutely love it! They love to swap
recipes, tell you their food preferences and where to buy the
greatest ingredients, but the number one topic is time, and how
much or how little they have, and how that affects what they cook
and when they cook it. Every other part of our lives is timed very
carefully. How long we sleep, how much time we should spend
exercising, how long it takes us to get to work. But cooking... It
depends how long you've got, or how much time you are willing to
spend. I live fairly remotely and make dinner most nights rather
than eating out or having takeaways, so this book is my answer to
whether I have 10, 20 or 30 minutes to cook supper.' Praise for
Clodagh's Weeknight Kitchen: 'Clodagh McKenna's simple yet
spectacular dishes make every day special. Delicious, effortless,
show-stopping recipes.' Daily Mail 'The most cookable cook book of
the year.' William Sitwell, The Telegraph 'Really easy recipes that
will impress.' The Times Magazine

Peter Brears has a long acquaintance with jellies in every guise.
He was fed them in childhood, he turned to curating their moulds
and associated artefacts while director of York and Leeds museums,
he has made them for innumerable historical food shows and events.
And jelly is a much bigger thing than some packet from the
supermarket mixed with boiling water. In the first place, it was
not factory-made gelatine that did the setting, but any number of
ingenious adaptations of kitchen materials and ingredients. In the
second, it was not just a simple clear, coloured solid, but an
optical prism to show off and transform the foods contained within
it. It was the old cooks' greatest resource for introducing colour,
variety and delight into the table display. The book sketches in
the history of jellies, particularly in England, and discusses
their place within a meal; gives several recipes based on the
various setting agents (carrageen, gelatine, isinglass) and also
for cereal moulds (flummery, tapioca, semolina, rice, cornflour,
etc.); describes how jellies may be assembled by layering,
embedding, lining and inclusion of fruit, nuts, gold, etc.; and
gives an excellent illustrated account of the various forms of
jelly moulds.
