A ground-breaking book, designed to help creative cooks develop their own recipes, from the bestselling author of The Flavour Thesaurus. One dish leads to another.
Lateral Cooking is, in a sense, the 'method' companion to its bestselling predecessor, The Flavour Thesaurus - and is just as useful, ingeniously organised and enjoyable to read.
The book is divided into 12 chapters, each covering a basic culinary category, such as 'Bread', 'Sauces' or 'Custard'. The recipes in each chapter are then arranged on a continuum, the transition from one recipe to another generally amounting to a tweak or two in the method or ingredients. Which is to say, one dish leads to another: once you've got the hang of flatbreads, for instance, then its neighbouring dishes on the continuum (crackers, soda bread, scones) will involve the easiest and most intuitive adjustment. The result is greater creativity in the kitchen: Lateral Cooking encourages improvisation, resourcefulness, and, ultimately, the knowledge and confidence to cook by heart.
Lateral Cooking is essentially a practical book, but like The Flavour Thesaurus it's also a highly enjoyable read. The 'Flavours & Variations' sections, for example, draw widely on culinary science, history, ideas from professional kitchens, observations by renowned food writers and personal recollection. Entertaining, opinionated and inspirational, Lateral Cooking will have you torn between donning your apron and settling back in a comfortable chair.

Everyone loves soup, it is the ultimate comfort food. Whether you
yearn for a traditional creamy tomato, a spicy fish chowder or a
deliciously umami-rich ramen, a mug of soup is the perfect supper
on the sofa, quick lunch and between-meal savoury snack. But a
great-tasting soup has to involve long cooking with big pans and
bulk ingredients, right? Wrong! Every soup in this book has been
specially created to suit the microwave and to be cooked in a
single mug, ready to eat. Instead of opening up a can, you can have
an even yummier home-cooked mushroom soup, or chicken, even
minestrone - made fresh in just the same amount of time.
An enduringly popular collection of beloved dishes from around the
world featuring classic and easy-to-cook recipes When it was first
published in 1985, The Good Food was one of the first cookbooks
devoted to the celebration of the best-loved and most satisfying
essentials of casual cuisine and, more than thirty years later, it
has remained a classic in its genre. Drawing on the diverse cooking
traditions of the Americas, Italy, France, India, Morocco, and the
Middle East, Daniel Halpern and Julie Strand bring together almost
two hundred recipes, including not only the quintessential examples
of each cuisine, but also unusual dishes that provide surprising
gastronomic rewards. The book features international staples such
as Gazpacho and Jambalaya, as well as unexpected delights-Bobotie;
Lamb Stew with Eggplant, Saffron, and Ginger; and Penne with Black
Olive Puree and Ricotta. The Good Food puts the emphasis where it
belongs: on the pleasure of preparing-and eating-excellent and
timeless dishes.

aromatic, rich and creamy, simple and elegant or so substantial you
almost need a knife and fork. In the following pages you will find
recipes for all occasions and to suit every mood as well as recipes
for stocks, advice on preparing vegetables, and a guide to using
herbs as a garnish to make your soup look as good as it
