From the James Beard-recognised creator of Cannelle et Vanille - lauded by everyone from Bon App tit to Dorie Greenspan - comes 100 recipes that show us how to bring more joy and mindfulness to the kitchen, as well as connection around the table, through family-friendly meals that are satisfying, yet decidedly unfussy. Recipes are organised around the day: start off with Spicy Carrot, Grapefruit and Sunflower juice Soft-cooked Eggs with Dukkah and Bitter Greens; and move on to Tomato, Corn and Bread Salad at midday. There is a chapter of everyday dinners you can prepare on a weeknight, such as a simple spaghetti and meatballs supper or Braised Chicken with Apples and Cider. You'll also find a chapter of menus to inspire you when you want to gather together a larger group of friends and family which Aran heartily encourages! She is especially known for her tender, gluten-free baking and the book includes recipes for her sourdough bread, caramelised onion and fennel biscuits, and her apple tarte tatin (with flour substitutions included for those who aren't gluten-free). Filled with Aran's gorgeous photographs, you will also find suggestions sprinkled throughout the book for creating a welcoming space with lighting, linens, flowers and flatware, along with gentle encouragement to spend time in the kitchen nourishing yourself as well as those you love.
