Michelin-starred chef Tom Kerridge has been developing top recipes
for nearly three decades and knows how to make things taste good.
He also understands how much willpower it takes to shift unhealthy
excess weight, because he has lost over 11 stone in the last four
years by following a low-carb diet. Now Tom is turning his
attention to helping food-lovers who have chosen a low-calorie diet
as their own route to weight-loss. This is a low-calorie diet with
a difference - it's based on hunger-satisfying portions of
delicious, low-calorie dishes that taste amazing. The focus is on
the food that we can and should be eating to lose weight, which is
easy to make and won't make you feel as though you are missing out.
Recipes include warm halloumi salad; salt and pepper squid; sweet
potato and black bean burritos; sticky pork chops; and baked
doughnuts with sweet five-spice dust. As Tom says: `It's impossible
to stick to a diet if the food you're expected to eat is boring and
doesn't fill you up. So I've developed lots of tasty and satisfying
recipes that people will love to cook and eat, but that will also
help them lose weight. I truly believe that this attitude works.
I've been there myself and now I want to help others get there
too.' By adopting a new, healthy approach to eating you really CAN
lose weight for good.
George Calombaris, Australia's favourite celebrity chef, is back with the ultimate book for delicious home cooking and impressive entertaining, full of his very best recipes, stories and a whole lot of love. Just George takes readers through the recipes that have shaped George's life and career, from growing up in the Melbourne suburbs with his Cypriot mother and Sicilian-Greek-Egyptian father, to his decade working on MasterChef and more than two decades running successful restaurants across Australia. With the perfect edit of mid-week meals, dishes to impress, restaurant favourites and must-know meals for every home cook, Just George is full of the sort of food that George is known for: fun, inspirational and full of goodness. Of course there are plenty of the delicious Greek dishes with a twist (tarama chicken sandwich or slow cooked lamb with chickpeas and tomato, anyone?) alongside favourites from his restaurants (including a new take on that ancient grain salad). And then there's the food he cooks at home with his family (like the osso buco he made for Nigella, or health-focused vegetable-forward meals that don't skimp on taste), and recipes passed on from some of George's fellow foodies. Just George is for every cook, and recipes are graded for difficulty and time. Says George: 'Some recipes are SUPER EASY, so go there if you're not feeling really energetic but just want to eat something delicious. I'm not kidding around with you: this stuff really is easy. Others require a little bit of EXTRA LOVE, meaning maybe there's a few more steps, ingredients or time involved, but nothing crazy. And trust me, it's always worth it. And then there are the recipes that I DARE YOU to try. These might incorporate equipment or techniques that we use in the restaurants. Often there are alternative instructions in case you don't want to go the whole way, but I know - from our restaurant regulars and from everyone I've met through MasterChef - that there are so many of you out there who are looking for the challenge. And I think you're up to it'. It's about good food, yes, but more than that, Just George celebrates the unparalleled joys of being in the moment and cooking for people you love.
One of the world's most renowned chefs, Heston Blumenthal has made
his name creating such original - and some might say bizarre -
dishes as Snail Porridge and Nitrogen Scrambled Egg & Bacon Ice
Cream at his internationally acclaimed restaurant, The Fat Duck.
Heston decided, though, that it was time to go back to both his and
our roots and to focus his creative talent on reinventing some of
our most well-known and abused dishes. In order to do this he
travelled around the world in search of 'perfect' versions of eight
dishes which represent the essence of our culinary heritage: Roast
Chicken & Roast Potatoes Pizza Bangers & Mash Steak
Spaghetti Bolognese Fish & Chips Black Forest Gateau Treacle
Tart & Ice Cream Everybody's idea of 'perfection' is different,
and so Heston, drawing on interviews with experts and cooks as well
as using his own culinary and scientific research, sets out to
discover what makes these standards so great. He explores the
origins of each dish, how to find the best ingredients, and of
course the many different ways - and whys - of cooking them to
perfection. He reveals priceless culinary tips along the way:
everything from how to cut potatoes for flawless frying, to what
makes the choicest beef, to the secret ingredients in the perfect
spaghetti Bolognese, to capturing the essence of a fish and chip
shop in a perfume bottle, to making aerated chocolate bars at home
with a vacuum cleaner. In Search of Perfection examines the role of
food in our lives and memories and is a completely original,
inspiring and fascinating exploration of these kitchen classics.
Hugh's River Cottage Veg Every Day! became the UK's best-selling
vegetable cookbook, persuading us through sheer temptation to make
vegetables the mainstay of our daily cooking. In this
much-anticipated follow-up, Hugh delivers more irresistible
recipes, and this time, takes things one step further. Fuelled by
his passionate belief that plant foods should be the dominant force
in our kitchens, Hugh has put cheese, butter, cream, eggs, and
refined flour and sugar firmly to one side. Instead, he uses veg,
fruit, wholegrains, nuts, seeds, spices and cold-pressed oils to
explore the length and breadth of what can be achieved with
natural, unprocessed plant foods. River Cottage Much More Veg!
makes it clear that unadulterated ingredients are the very best
building blocks for delicious and healthy meals. In typical Hugh
style, the recipes are easy, utterly foolproof and delicious. All
but a handful are gluten-free, and at least half the dishes require
20 minutes (or less) hands-on work time. With recipes such as Roast
squash and chickpeas with spicy apricot sauce, Blackened
cauliflower with pecans and tahini, Spiced beetroot, radicchio and
orange traybake, Celeriac and seaweed miso broth, Seared summer
cabbage with rosemary, chilli and capers, and Baked celery
agrodolce, River Cottage Much More Veg! demonstrates how easy it is
to make versatile, plentiful and delicious vegetables the bedrock
of your diet.

When Taso G. Lagos began to memorialize his family's beloved Greek
restaurant The Continental, he wrestled with 40 years of history
and a clientele that stretched for generations. His family bought
into the operation without a clue how to run an eatery, yet in time
they became linchpins of their Seattle neighborhood. Customers
became friends, and meals turned into memories. It wasn't only the
food or the company, though. The Continental also served as an
entry point into mainstream culture for a family who had just
arrived in the United States as Greek immigrants a few years prior.
While the Lagoses cooked and cared for many people, they also
learned valuable lessons about what it means to be "American." This
memoir illuminates life in a Greek restaurant through the
experiences of one member of a restauranteur family. It also
emphasizes the role of restaurants as vital social institutions
that often provide immigrants with a dynamic space for
acculturation. Readers will learn the many ways a family restaurant
adds culture and richness to a community.

"Justin uses his cooking to transcend geography, connect with his
family, and share a bit of his history, and our history, with the
world. Slow down, give it a read, and get cookin'." Guy Fieri, host
of "Diners, Drive Ins, and Dives" and "Guy's Ranch Kitchen" In 90+
soul-satisfying recipes, beloved Top Chef star, chef, and
restaurateur Justin Sutherland offers his take on easy
Southern-inspired home cooking...with a Northern Twist. Justin owns
multiple restaurants in the Twin Cities, though his reputation is
national. You may know him from television, where he won an Iron
Chef episode, competed on Season 16 of Top Chef, and is one of the
chefs featured on Fast Foodies and is producer and host of Taste
the Culture, both airing on TruTV/TBS. In his highly anticipated
first cookbook, Justin shares the inspiration and foundation behind
his approach to his signature Southern cooking, which includes his
upbringing in the Northern Midwest and the South, as well as his
African-American and Asian heritage. Northern Soul features his
signature recipes for lunch, brunch, dinner, snacks, late-night
meals, and cocktail recipes. Justin shares how you can make easy,
traditional Southern recipes with a Northern flair, in your own
kitchen. From recipes like Chicken and Waffles and Creole Jambalaya
to Bourbon Pecan Pie with Maple Whip and Hot Mac and Cheese, plus
spice blends, sauces, rubs and pickles, you'll learn just how
deliciously southern soul and northern heart blend. Praise for
Northern Soul: "I am covered in chills reading Justin Sutherland's
book. It's mindful, soulful, important, and truly American-because
it is a global story. We are one. We are all connected if we choose
to be. With Justin's cookbook, we all come one step closer, and one
meal closer, to one another." Rachael Ray, host of "30 Minute
Meals" and "The Rachael Ray Show" "In Northern Soul, Justin
Sutherland elevates southern comfort dishes in a unique way that
speaks to the power of how food fuels us as individuals, connects
to us spiritually, and forges the bonds of community." Marcus
Samuelsson, chef and author of The Red Rooster Cookbook "This book
is a deep dive into soul food from a clear and fresh perspective,
one that feels familiar and approachable, creative and craveable.
Justin Sutherland beautifully demonstrates how food connects us
all, but also is an integral part of how we can seamlessly
celebrate our individuality together. I cannot wait to cook my way
through this book!" Brooke Williamson, chef and winner of Food
Network's "Tournament of Champions"
Fruit is pretty much the perfect food: bountiful, delicious and
colourful, it also helps us to fight infection, stresses and
strains. But why are we still a nation that thinks it's a bit racy
to slice a banana onto our cornflakes in the morning? A 'piece of
fruit' in a lunch box, on the breakfast table or at the end of a
meal is all very well, but fruit is so much more exciting than
this, and we don't eat nearly enough of the stuff. Perhaps this is
because we don't always understand how to use it in our cooking, or
how to choose the best fruit for the season. Hugh sets out to
address this head on. With 180 delicious recipes, River Cottage
Fruit Every Day! will show you how to enjoy a broader eating
experience and make fruit easy, fun and irresistible. You'll find
recipes for all the wonderful seasonal fruit that grows in this
country, and learn how to make the most of fruit from other parts
of the world. Recipes include marinated lamb and fig kebabs;
barbecued pork chops with peaches and sage; venison stew with
damsons; and parsnip and apple cakes. There are also fresh and
zingy salads as well as gorgeous cakes, tarts, pies, crumbles and
puddings. With glorious photography from Simon Wheeler, this book
will bring amazing new fruity vitality and flavour to your food.
