COOKERY & FOOD WRITING

A selection of the best culinary offerings in writing to whet your appetite and inspire.

Too many chefs may spoil the broth - but we assure you no broth has ever been spoiled by too many cookbooks. With that in mind, here's a sumptuous selection from some of the best beloved names in the food writing & cookbook scene.

The Kitchen Book

Ella Risbridger

Home cooking but make it gorgeous. Make it the thing that improves your day. Make it beautiful, useful and delicious.

No-knife potato curry, cumin lamb ragu, turmeric satay salmon, marinated bavette, and kimchi remoulade; breakfast bars, rhubarb and custard, sticky lemon cake, and one-bowl canneles. This is cooking for real life - the kinds of recipes you will actually make and actually love.

There are plenty of ideas to get you through the week with minimal faff and maximum reward, whether you're at your lowest ebb or striving for elegance.

It's a noisy world out there, so stop, take a minute or two, listen to the soup bubble or the egg crackle... and let simple cooking be your solution.

Bring Yotam Ottolenghi's innovation to your everyday with 135 new recipes for breakfast, lunch, dinner and dessert. Every dish has simplicity at its core and can be made in under 30 minutes, cooked in one pot, or prepped ahead. Whatever your barriers to cooking, this book brings you into the kitchen with a promise that even the simplest of meals can be full of flavour and joy.

Honey & Co Daily: Easy food for your everyday pleasure

Honey & Co Daily is about food that looks good on the plate and tastes sensational, but hasn't taken all day to prepare.

Based on the menu Itamar and Sarit serve at their cafe in Store Street, London, it's the kind of relaxed, informal food we all want to eat every day. From a summery Courgette & Broad Bean Shakshuka and a Crispy Za'atar Chicken Schnitzel Sandwich to Spicy Sausage, Tomato, Pepper & Goat's Cheese Dirty Rice and Ginger & Chocolate Cookies - this is wholesome, seasonal food that will lift your spirits and improve your day.
