At Home in the Whole Food Kitchen: Celebrating the Art of Eating Well
Description
James Beard Award Winner (Vegetarian) IACP Award Winner (Healthy Eating) A
sophisticated vegetarian cookbook with all the tools you need to be at home in
your kitchen, cooking in the most nourishing and delicious ways—from the
foundations of stocking a pantry and understanding your ingredients, to
preparing elaborate seasonal feasts. Imagine you are in a bright, breezy
kitchen. There are large bowls on the counter full of lush, colorful produce
and a cake stand stacked with pretty whole-grain muffins. On the shelves live
rows of glass jars containing grains, seeds, beans, nuts, and spices. You open
the fridge and therein you find a bottle of fresh almond milk, cooked beans,
soaking grains, dressings, ferments, and seasonal produce. This is Amy
Chaplin’s kitchen. It is a heavenly place, and this book will make it your
kitchen too. With her love of whole food and knowledge as a chef, Chaplin has
written a book that will inspire you to eat well at every meal. Part One lays
the foundation for stocking the pantry. This is not just a list of food and
equipment; it’s real working information—how and why to use ingredients—and an
arsenal of simple recipes for daily nourishment. Also included throughout are
tips on living a whole food lifestyle: planning weekly menus, why organic is
important, composting, plastics vs. glass, drinking tea, doing a whole food
cleanse, and much more. Part Two is a collection of recipes (most of which are
naturally gluten-free) celebrating vegetarian cuisine in its brightest, whole,
sophisticated form. Black rice breakfast pudding with coconut and banana? Yes,
please. Beet tartlets with poppy seed crust and white bean fennel filling?
I’ll take two. Fragrant eggplant curry with cardamom basmati rice, apricot
chutney, and cucumber lime raita? Invite company. Roasted fig raspberry tart
with toasted almond crust? There is always room for this kind of dessert. If
you are an omnivore, you will delight in this book for its playful use of
produce and know-how in balancing food groups. If you are a vegetarian, this
book will become your best friend, always there for you when you’re on your
own, and ready to lend a hand when you’re sharing food with family and
friends. If you are a vegan, you can cook nearly every recipe in this book and
feed your body well in the truest sense. This is whole food for everyone. Read
