Nordic by Nature presents more than 30 of the most original Danish chefs with their distinctive recipes and provides deep insights into the uniqueness of the contemporary Northern cuisine

In Nordic by Nature, top chefs like Nicolai Nørregaard, Claus Meyer, Rasmus Munk or Kamilla Seidler take the reader on a journey through their creative realms by revealing the secrets of their own kitchen. Far more than just a cook book, this volume includes more than 70 innovative and at times very unusual recipes of chefs coupled with their own personal interpretations of contemporary Danish kitchen. This has been visualized through vibrant imagery of the kitchens, forests, or castle gardens where inspiration is drawn, created and consumed.

Nordic by Nature invites you to immerse your senses in the intriguing world of Danish gastronomy by celebrating this contemporary culinary culture: a movement characterized by personal stories and ideologies, foraging trips, and geographical and seasonal limitations and possibilities.

With a foreword by Andrea Petrini, influential food writer and curator and co-founder of Gelinaz!

The renowned chef and master host presents his second Rizzoli cookbook: a collection of more than 100 recipes inspired by traditional Southern fare and French culinary flair, with an emphasis on seasonal fresh-from-the-market ingredients that are perfect for entertaining.

Alex Hitz shares a spectacular array of classic yet contemporary seasonal comfort dishes — from hors d’oeuvres, soups, salads, sauces, main dishes, and sides to desserts. He has a penchant for crowd-pleasers, including spiced pecans, gazpacho, mini crab cakes with mango chutney, cucumber and mint salad, mustard-crusted rack of lamb, tomatoes Provençale, key lime mousse, and lemon pecan shortbread cookies.

Hitz imparts cooking, serving, and entertaining secrets to ensure success for the amateur or experienced home cook alike, champions elegance and simplicity, and boldly encourages all who read and cook to celebrate with delicious food. Hitz’s message is clear: whether it’s a holiday or just another Tuesday, make every day a special occasion.

The natural follow-up to our successful La Cucina, this book offers up a more authentic take on Italian cooking than almost any cookbook in the category. It will appeal to fans of Lidia Bastianich and Mario Batali who seek a more direct insight into Italian cooking, straight from the source. It has the impressive brick-package weight of Phaidon's national cuisine cookbooks, but with the Slow Food mark has more bona fides than The Silver Spoon.

With 1,000 recipes from all of Italy's regions, this book offers striking breadth and depth. These aren't "chef recipes," but dishes from humble restaurants that serve cuisine specific to their home areas. This is imminently cookable Italian food. With thorough headnotes that offer fascinating cultural detail, these are more than mere instructions for cooking--together they make up a guide to a much-admired and much-desired way of life.

About the Author:

Slow Food is a global, grassroots organization with more than 200,000 supporters in the USA. It was founded in 1989 to prevent the disappearance of local food traditions, counteract the rise of fast life, and combat people's dwindling interest in the food they eat, where it comes from, and how food choices affect the world around us. Founded in Italy, it is now active in more than 160 countries and involves millions of participants. Slow Food runs two international conferences annually and organizes hundreds of other events, both through its headquarters and via its more than 1,500 local chapters.

"Slow Food has become a force to be reckoned with, probably the only international organization that integrates concerns about the environment, tradition, labor, health, animal welfare ... along with real cooking, taste, and pleasure." Mark Bittman, The New York Times

The Sunday Times and New York Times Bestseller. Winner at The National Book Awards 2018

Ottolenghify every meal.

Flexible, flavour-packed dishes that all lend a little something 'extra' to your next meal.

It's harissa butter on a roasted mushroom, then tossed with steamed veg or stuffed into a baked potato. It's tamarind dressing on turmeric fried eggs, then drizzled over a steak the next day. Rounded off with a chapter on the 'one basics' of desserts for you to perfect and then adapt with your favourite flavour combinations, such as a basic mousse transformed into coffee mousse with tahini fudge.

This is cooking it forward, Ottolenghi style, filling your cupboards with adaptable homemade ingredients to add some oomph to every mealtime.

Relaxed, flexible home cooking from Yotam Ottolenghi and his superteam.

Whether they're conjuring up new recipes or cooking for themselves at home, the Ottolenghi Test Kitchen team do what we all do: they raid their kitchens. But then, they turn whatever they find into approachable creations with an 'Ottolenghi' twist.

This instinct is in perfect sync with recent times, when we've all been standing in front of our kitchen shelves, our cupboards and our fridges, wondering what to cook with what we've got; how to put a can of chickpeas or a bag of frozen peas to good use, instead of taking an extra trip to the shops.

For the first time, the team welcome us into their creative space. These dishes pack all the punch and edge we expect from Ottolenghi, but offer more flexibility to make them our own, using what we've got to hand. There's the ultimate guide to creamy dreamy hummus, a one-pan route to confit tandoori chickpeas and a tomato salad that rules them all.

This book is all about feeding ourselves and our families with less stress and less fuss, but with all the 'wow' of an Ottolenghi meal. It's a notebook to scribble on and add to, to take its ethos and absolutely make it your own.

This is how to cook, the OTK way.

Perfect the art of French pâtisserie with over 70 classic recipes from award-winning pastry chef Will Torrent.

If you’ve ever wandered down a charming French alleyway or a bustling Parisian street, there are stand-out shop displays that truly capture the essence of French flair – gorgeous patisseries filled with the most eye-catching and elegant bakes. Delicately detailed with candies, fruits, spun sugar and tempered chocolate, it’s hard to resist their sweet seduction. However, you don’t have to travel far to enjoy these tasty treats, you can simply learn how to conjure them up at home with this stunning collection of recipes.
With step-by-step instructions, expert chef Will Torrent introduces you to the basic recipes that make up the foundation of authentic French pâtisserie, before delving into the superb bakes, each of which has its own je ne sais quio! Opt for something light and sweet with colourful Macarons. If you’re feeling fruity try the citrus-sharp Tarte au Citron. Or if all you want is chocolate on chocolate, master the rich Coffee and Chocolate Madeleines. Whether you’re new to pâtisserie, or have dabbled in the art before, these delightful desserts are sure to show you how to achieve French baking finesse.

About the Author:

Will Torrent trained under Heston Blumenthal at the age of 16, won Young Chef of the Year in 2009 and has worked with top chefs such as Brian Turner and Gary Rhodes, as well as at Claridges, The Dorchester, The Fat Duck and The Lanesborough.

Newly updated and expanded with 3,500 step-by-step photographs, all the classics of French patisserie are made accessible for the home cook. For every serious home baker, French pastry represents the ultimate achievement. But to master the techniques, a written recipe can take you only so far — what is equally important is to see a professional in action, to learn the nuances of rolling out dough for croissaints or caramelizing apples for a tarte tatin. For each of the 233 recipes here, there are photographs that lead the reader through every step of the instructions. There has never been such a comprehensive primer on patisserie. The important base components — such as crème patisserie, pâte à choux, and chocolate ganache — are presented as stand-alone recipes. Once comfortable with these, the home baker can go on to tackle the famous and more complex creations — such as Éclairs, Saint-Honoré, Opéra — as well as feel empowered to explore new and original combinations. An entire chapter is devoted to decoration as well as sauces, syrups, and fillings. Whether used to develop skills or to refine techniques, to gain or simply broaden a repertoire, Patisserie dispels the mystery around classic French pastries, so that everyone can make them at home.
