Ollie Dabbous is one of the UK's most exciting chefs. His
restrained but stunning dishes celebrate the essence of ingredients
and flavour. Essential is his first cookbook for home cooks and it
is made up of 100 everyday recipes that Ollie has made faultless.
These are pitch-perfect versions of familiar dishes like
cauliflower cheese, risotto, tuna steak, roast beef and cheesecake.
Each chapter takes a different ingredient type - from Grains
through to Fruit and Berries - and the recipes are simple, unfussy
and incredibly elegant. Ollie may be Michelin-starred but in this
book he doesn't use complicated techniques or tools. He simply
shares his intuitive approach to balancing, layering and tweaking
ingredients to create perfect results time and again.
Who is the master confectioner? He is the man who is an expert in
his trade, who knows his business from A to Z, and can teach others
to become proficient in this field. The author of this book began
as a candymaker in early youth and has devoted his entire life to
candymaking. He has written this book so that others may benefit
from fifty-two years of experience and hard work. Many good candy
books have been published, but as a rule they do not cover the
retail and smaller wholesale manufacturing field completely. For
example: A certain formula, though it may be the best, calls for
steam or vacuum cooking. This will not suit the candymaker who uses
open-fire cooking. Here is only one example in a hundred where a
formula that is suitable for the large candy factory will not give
good results in the medium shop. The large candy manufacturer has
his highly paid executive to take care of all his problems, but the
smaller manufacturer has his hands full with making and selling his
products. He is only too likely to neglect the candymaking end.
That is why this book should be of particular interest to the
retail and medium-wholesale candymaker. The man who must know his
business from A to Z should find this work a treasury of
candymaking.
The multimillion dollar food industry has used their vast resources to
target parents, convincing them that it’s difficult to feed their
children good food. But here’s the truth: parenting is difficult, but
feeding your children simple, healthy, real food shouldn’t be.
As parents, we all want the best for our kids. It’s also our
responsibility to teach our children about food. We obviously cannot be
with them their entire lives, and they will be independently exposed to
many different foods over the course of their lives, but we can teach
them how to make the best choices.
In The Food Babe Family Cookbook, best-selling author Vani Hari
provides readers with all of the tools, information, and recipes they
need to feed their children in a way that will foster a love for real
food and set them up for a life of healthy eating. In it, Vani dispels
popular myths about feeding our kids; offers more than 100 delicious
recipes that make it simple to put healthy, real food on the table; and
helps parents start children on a lifelong path of making good food
choices.
Includes tips and tricks, such as how to:
· navigate the food in schools and day care centers
· deal with "picky eaters"
· make mealtime fun for kids, without the processed foods
· and more!

'The one and only book you will ever need on Parsi cooking' ANGELA
HARTNETT From Dinaz Aunty's incredible tamarind and coconut fish
curry, lamb stewed with cinnamon and Hunza apricots, to baked

fusion of Persian and Indian influences: unique and utterly
delicious. In his debut cookbook, Head Chef of St. John Bread &
Wine, Farokh Talati, gathers together a selection of classic Parsi
recipes from his travels through India and time spent in the
kitchen with family, revealing them here for you to discover and
enjoy at home. Recipes include: Parsi omelette Charred sweetcorn
and paneer salad Persian scorched rice Parsi kheema Kedgeree - a
Parsi version Prawn Patio Mango poached in jaggery and saffron
Cardamom doughnuts Blending Persian and Indian cookery in a journey
from family life in west London all the way to Gujarat and beyond,
and told through recipes, stories and photographs, Parsi is much
more than a cookbook - it is a love letter to the Parsi culture and
its people. 'Sure to be a Parsi classic. Great reading and great
eating' FERGUS HENDERSON

Ferber is a fourth-generation French patissiere whose speciality is
her unusual, delicious jams and jellies, which have gained an
international following among chefs and other gourmands. This book,
a best-seller in France, presents dozens of recipes, organised by
season, for preserves from Black Cherry with Pinot Noir to
Greengage and Mirabelle Plum with Mint; a number of them include
chocolate, not a standard addition. Few of the recipes include
headnotes, although translator's notes identify the more exotic
ingredients; instructions are on the brief side. However, any jam
maker will find Ferber's book fascinating. Recommended for all
canning and preserving collections.
Katie Workman is a gifted cook, a best friend in the kitchen, and a
brilliant problem solver. Now Katie turns her attention to the
biggest problem that every family cook faces: how to make everyone
at the table happy without turning into a short-order cook.
Expanding on one of the most popular features of the first
cookbook, her ingenious "Fork in the Road" recipe solution, which
makes it so easy to turn one dish into two or more, Katie shows you
how Asian Spareribs can start mild and sweet for less adventurous
eaters - and then, in no time, become a zesty second version for
spice lovers. She shakes up the usual chicken for dinner with
Chicken Tikka Masala-ish - and feeds vegetarians, too, by offering
a fork where cauliflower is used in place of the chicken.
Fettuccine with Shrimp and Asparagus is a blueprint for seven other
easy mix-and-match pasta dinner combinations. Crostini for
breakfast - truly an aha! idea - can go sweet or savoury, pleasing
both types of morning eaters. Have all the ingredients on hand?
Make the insanely delicious Chocolate Carrot Cake. Missing
chocolate? Don't run out to the store - the basic Carrot Cake is
just as satisfying.
