Hearth Food ebook

Fourteen stories of food, love and origin An anthology of essays and personal recipes, this book invites the question: what does food mean to you? How is that bond with family passed down through food and the act of sitting down to eat? What happens when that is lost? Everybody has a story, a recipe, a memory - good or bad - that involves a meal with family. From displacement, to relocation, fleeing, or arriving at leisure, these essays explore what it means to be able to cook and enjoy the food of your home and your happiness. Ranging from Winberry Pie, Staffordshire oatcakes, to lamb chops with a Zimbabwean twist; Bouillabaisse, Moroccan Keftas and Filhoses, this is a round-the-world recipe book with bite. 'A delicious and moving compendium of memories, longing and recipes you will want to cook' - Jay Rayner 'Cooking always was (and is) an act of love. There is no better way of showing someone how much they mean to you than sitting together at the table sharing a meal you just prepared. Food is what brings us together, the cure for broken hearts and all other minor ailments.' Candida Nibau, Filhóses
