THE TIMES - BEST FOOD BOOKS of 2022 'If you had told me at 14 when
I couldn't even get out of bed with depression and anxiety that
three years later I would have written a book I would never have
believed you. But here it is - the story of the Orange Bakery. How
I went from bed to bread and how my Dad went from being a teacher
to a baker. You reading it means everything to me' Kitty Tait
Breadsong tells the story of Kitty Tait who was a chatty, bouncy
and full-of-life 14 year old until she was overwhelmed by an
ever-thickening cloud of depression and anxiety and she withdrew
from the world. Her desperate family tried everything to help her
but she slipped further away from them. One day her dad Alex, a
teacher, baked a loaf of bread with her and that small moment
changed everything. One loaf quickly escalated into an obsession
and Kitty started to find her way out of the terrible place she was
in. Baking bread was the one thing that made any sense to her and
before long she was making loaves for half her village. After a few
whirlwind months, she and her dad opened the Orange Bakery, where
queues now regularly snake down the street. Breadsong is also a
cookbook full of Kitty's favourite recipes, including: - the
Comfort loaf made with Marmite, and with a crust that tastes like
Twiglets - bitesize queue nibbles, doughnuts with an ever-changing
filling to keep the bakery queue happy - sticky fika buns with
mix-and-match fillings such as cardamom and orange - Happy Bread
covered with salted caramel - cheese straws made with easy homemade
ruff puff pastry - the ultimate brown butter and choc chip cookies
with the perfect combination of gooey centre and crispy edges.
Being vegan or vegetarian, or wanting to reduce your meat intake, doesn't mean missing out on fantastic takeaway favourites. The Veggie Chinese Takeaway Cookbook offers over 70 amazing meat-free recipes, most of which can easily be made vegan.
Kwoklyn Wan has spent his life cooking in Chinese restaurants and knows how to make your home recipes taste just like the takeaway. Chinese food is ideal for a veggie diet as it makes the most of fresh vegetables and meat substitutes, and uses very little dairy - but at the same time packs fantastic flavour into everything. From tom yum soup to spring rolls, fried tofu with chilli and black beans or aubergine with sesame seeds, to Hong Kong crispy noodles and sticky rice parcels, you can re-create the tastes of your favourite restaurant quicker than the time it takes to pick up the phone and order.
