Recounting the fairy-tale-like rise of Antonin Carême from Parisian orphan to a household name synonymous with culinary luxury, Carême offers a unique conflation of historical biography, social history and cookery guide. Kelly lifts the veil on one of the most momentous and sensuous periods in European history: First Empire Paris, Georgian England and the tsarist Russia of War and Peace, depicting Carême’s entanglements with the social and political elite of his age, from King George IV to Napoleon, the Romanovs to the Rothschilds.

Before 9-11, when life was simple and all we had to worry about was the president receiving a blowjob in the oval office, I worked as a cook in a local restaurant for a year. This is a collection of stories from that time, insights into the industry, and proof that the movie Waiting is more of a documentary then a comedy. Filled with stories about crackheads, screw-ups, thieves and degenerates, Motherf*cker will entertain while educating you on the people who prepare your food. If anything this might be a diet book on how to save money by never eating out again. You have been warned.

The spatter of sauce in a pan, a cook's subtle deviation from a recipe, the careful labour of cooking for loved ones: these are not often the subjects of critical enquiry. Cooking, we are told, has nothing to do with serious thought; the path to freedom and fulfilment, especially for women, leads directly out of the kitchen. In this invigorating, revelatory book, Rebecca May Johnson rewrites the kitchen as a space of infinite variety and infinite potential.

Food is a love language for me, and was also a way for me to prove my worth—to make up for a long held self-perception that I alone was not enough, that I needed to serve and cook to be worthy of my place and approval. I would often spend all day in the kitchen preparing decadent meals to show people that I care and prove myself worthy of their affections, sometimes people I barely knew or even liked. In the past few months of Sydney's second lockdown, I have found myself making beautiful dishes that I'd never imagined cooking for one person… me.

For Karen Blixen var gastronomi en kunst på lige fod med litteratur, musik og maleri. Derfor gik hun til gastronomien med dannelse, selvbevidsthed, passion, ufravigelige kvalitetskrav og høje forventninger. Med en ukuelig vilje lykkedes det Blixen at stable et køkken op på farmen i Afrika. Hendes madlavning gik fra et absolut nulpunkt hvad angik håndelag, udstyr og råvarer og endte med at blive kaldt det afrikanske kontinents svar på Ritz. Da hun blev forfatter lagde hun kogekunsten på hylden - i hvert fald den udførende del.

"Al termine della prima settimana, seicento assaggi avevano già azzerato ogni mia volontà di capirci ancora qualcosa. In quattro, cinque giorni mi spazzolavo la storia del Barolo o dell'Amarone, pretendendo anche di giudicarla. Era come stilare la classifica dei migliori film della stagione, fermandosi ai titoli di testa. Il mio spettacolo non andava mai oltre l'unghia del bicchiere. E seduti di fronte a me, non vedevo più colleghi e collaboratori, ma polli da batteria, costretti a beccare senza sosta." Con tono schietto e pungente, Tiziano Gaia ci conduce nel mondo dei vini.

Den dag, da Francis Cardenau faldt bevidstløs om på restaurant Umami, ændrede hans liv sig. I 45 år havde han stået bag et komfur og gjort det, han er bedst til: at lave mad på allerhøjeste niveau.
