Daniel Jardim was the resident cook at the Buddhist Retreat Centre
and created the recipes for the very popular The Cake the Buddha
Ate. Today Daniel teaches cookery retreats around the country with
a strong emphasis on the consciousness of the food and the eater.
Retreat is a collection of 80 delicious vegetarian dishes and is a
glimpse of what it is like to be on a cookery retreat with Daniel.
Retreat shows us how to create a greater sense of mindfulness in
our everyday lives by being in closer harmony with the food that we
prepare. Sue Cooper, a clinical psychologist who integrates
psychotherapy and meditation in her practice and who has worked
extensively with Daniel, introduces the book. The book is divided
into four seasonal sections with helpful tips on selecting the best
seasonal produce and appropriate cooking techniques that match the
body's needs as wemove through the different phases of the year.
Photographs by Sarah Shafer accompany the mouth-watering and
unusual dishes to re?ect Daniel's playful interaction with a wide
array of ?avours and in?uences - from Thai and Japanese, to
Moroccan and Indian. The photographs also focus on some of the
breath-taking and often subtle changes that occur in nature as the
year progresses, inviting the reader to become more aware of the
essential qualities of each season. The dishes are aimed at
aspiring cooks of all levels and are a heartfelt celebration of the
joyous communion that we can experience through food and eating.
