Selected for Jamie Oliver's Cookbook Club For every two lovers of
sweet baked treats, there is at least another who will take the
gruyere gougere or the curry pastie every time. All Day Baking:
Savoury, Not Sweet is a baking cookbook - at last - for them. All
Day Baking: Savoury, Not Sweet delivers 77 comforting, inventive
and wholegrain-forward ideas for savoury pies, sausage rolls,
pasties and myriad other mostly pastry-based recipes. The book is
structured across the arc of a day but the recipes are
interchangeable; it also includes ideas for gutsy accompaniments
that equip the reader with the tools to transform delicious bakes
into nourishing any-time-of-day meals, with a focus on minimising
waste, sustainability and seasonability. Author Michael James is a
Michelin-restaurant chef by training who was drawn early to the
art, precision, and satisfaction of baking. In All Day Baking he
turns his attention to the pasties of his British childhood, the
pies he creates today for his young family, and the quiches,
sausage rolls, palmiers and galettes that have earned him an
international cult following. He delivers a master class in pastry
- from puff to rye to vegan and gluten-free - gifting readers a
foundation knowledge that sets them on a path to their own
delicious baking adventures. Throughout there is a nod to Michael
and wife Pippa James' ethos, rooted in sustainability, seasonality
and a desire to minimise their waste footprint.
Daisy Delaney's life is pancake-flat. A talented baker and
passionate lingerie specialist, she has wound up with no one to
bake for and a career that hasn't proved successful. But when she
starts a delicious relationship with famous French author-chef,
Michel Amiel, everything begins to look a bit more exciting. That
is until Michel's bestselling cookbook is knocked off the top spot
by newcomer 'Lucy Lovecake'. His outdated recipes slide down the
charts, while the popularity of Lucy Lovecake's new dating cookbook
is rising like the perfect sponge. As Daisy teeters on the brink of
love, how can she ever tell Michel that she is the mysterious Lucy
Lovecake? Could he ever forgive her for finishing off his career?
And more importantly, does Daisy even want to be with a difficult,
egotistical, down-on-his-luck Frenchman just as her career is
beginning to take off? Especially when she has some other very
interesting offers... Filled with romance, baking and lingerie, The
Secret Life of Lucy Lovecake is truly a laugh-out-loud romantic
comedy for the 21st century. The perfect read for the Bake Off
generation, fans of Jojo Moyes, Sophie Kinsella and Milly Johnson
