WINNER OF A FORTNUMS SPECIAL AWARD 2023 WINNER OF THE ANDRÉ SIMON
AWARD 2022 FOR BEST FOOD BOOK ‘A beautifully written instant
classic that is every bit as exuberant and delicious as the man
himself!’ Nigella Lawson 'Jeremy Lee is an absolutely brilliant
British chef . . . This cookbook is extraordinary, don't hesitate
to buy it' Stanley Tucci Good food honed from great ingredients is
the principle at the heart of Cooking. There are sections on the
usefulness and frugality of breadcrumbs, black olive crumbs to
serve with everything; impromptu puddings like peaches in wine with
bay leaves or plum compote with ricotta and hazelnuts; pea dishes
galore; superb versions of classics like chocolate St Emilion and
pommes Anna; big dishes to serve a few such as marinated chicken
with roast pumpkin salad; and essentials like a wild garlic purée.
Cooking is brimming with stories, wit, infectious joy for food and
indispensable advice. It is brilliantly illustrated by John
Broadley and photographed by Elena Heatherwick, and will surely be
one of the most distinctive cook books published for years from the
renowned chef, Jeremy Lee.

on Horseback; and iconic dishes with roots outside of the United

instructions; and helpful notes on unique ingredients and

In a century that set out to tame, civilize, and revolutionize the
world Teddy always managed to stay a step ahead and find the last
wild places. Where I'm Bound I Can't Tell opens with a troubled kid
in the nineties named Lee smart-mouthing his way through community
service, yet meeting one old man will forever change his life. Born
in 1900 Teddy could never stand still, running away to join the
French Foreign Legion as a boy he never returns to the states until
the 1980's. Along the way he crosses deserts, explores the Amazon,
bears witness to Gandhi's movement, sails oceans, hunts with Zulu,
and becomes an aid worker in Africa. While Lee struggles to grow up
and learn what kind of man he is going to be Teddy teaches him
about the infinite possibilities and devastating tragedies of life.
