Book Description
‘Full of simple, seasonal dishes you will want to eat now’ Sunday Times In the heart of London’s Soho is Ducksoup, a tiny neighbourhood restaurant where you can eat simple plates of exactly what you might want at any time of day. This book is packed with delicious favourites from the menu whose influences include the warm blue skies of Italy, spices and flower blossom of the Middle East, and the smoky earthiness of Scandinavia. These recipes have a common thread: simple details – a squeeze of burnt lemon, a toasting of nuts, or a spoonful of piquant green sauce – which elevate flash-in-the-pan plates and slowly-stirred pots alike into something special. This pared-back approach to food is simple and achievable, and will transform your everyday cooking.

Book Description
The mid-1960s through the mid-1970s was a heady, turbulent time. There was a lot going on back then, and author Elisabeth Amaral was in the middle of it all: the fights for womens rights, racial equality, a music revolution, be-ins, love-ins, riots in the streets, the rage against the Vietnam War, and sex, drugs, and rock and roll. It was an amazing time to be young. In Czar Nicholas, The Toad, and Duck Soup, Amaral shares her recollections of those times. She narrates a coming-of-age story about herself and her husband as they embarked on an improbable journey of self-discovery. They gave up their jobs, moved with their infant son from New York City to Boston, unexpectedly started a childrens boutique, and soon opened a popular restaurant in Harvard Square. With sincerity and humor, Czar Nicholas, The Toad, and Duck Soup offers a personal and revealing account that reaches out to those who find themselves striving to make a relationship work that, by its very nature, may be doomed. But this story is also one of friendshipand of finding the courage to move on. Praise for Czar Nicholas, The Toad, and Duck Soup In her intimate and humorous memoir, Liz Amaral reveals the challenges of a young family establishing a home in Cambridge amid the tumult of the late 1960s. You will discover the disconcerting truth about her marriage and the painful path she takes to find herself again. A true adventure of the heart. Kathrin Seitz, writer, producer, and coach

Book Description
'I get fed up with the number of cookbooks that promise quick and easy meals, those that promise a three-course dinner that can be knocked up in thirty minutes. Most cooking, and certainly most enjoyable cooking, takes a little longer. I can knock something up in a hurry if I have to – there are plenty of quick and easy recipes in this book – but that ability was a long time in the acquisition, and I still prefer to take my time, in order to do it better than I did it last time.' These recipes and essays, first published in the Financial Times, are a distillation of Rowley Leigh’s forty years as both a professional chef and a home cook. They detail with precision and wit how to cook and enjoy both unusual and familiar ingredients through the seasons. With Leigh’s succinct wine recommendations and over 120 recipes, this is a book to get messy with overuse in the kitchen and to pore over in an armchair with a glass of the author’s beloved Riesling close to hand.
