Beth Alexander, The Retreat Chef

A Launch Party for Bath's Freerange Chef: Beth Alexander's Retreat Kitchen. Demo & Tastings.

Bring the retreat into the comfort of your own home with really delicious seasonal recipes to boost your health.
Living well is not only about the ingredients you cook, but also connecting with your internal seasons, taking time to reflect and eating the food your body needs.

The Retreat Kitchen takes you through a year of mindful eating, with each chapter reflecting the mood and energy of the season through its recipes and rituals.

From Chocolate Orange Porridge with Spiced Apple Compote to Roast Squash, Pearl Barley and Feta Risotto, and from Sticky Miso Mixed Grain Aubergine to Cream Cheese Doughnuts with Sunflower and Cardamom, these dishes will bring a smile to your face and a hearty goodness to your stomach.

Reconnect with yourself and support your wellbeing through delicious, nourishing food from The Retreat Kitchen.

"Every recipe here is so innovative, every dish dances so brightly. These recipes are full of integrity, attuned to the seasons and responding to our deep need to reassociate and resonate with our beautiful land. I have been lucky enough to sample Beth's incredible cooking on retreat - what she comes up with in a wild kitchen with raw fire, simple ingredients and a whole load of love, is just so impressive. The joy in these pages somehow captures the joy of Beth's cooking - original, vivid and full of delight."
