Summary:
"Laura Calder is back with
Kitchen
Bliss
, a warm, funny, and pragmatic collection of stories and
recipes
that reveal how cooking, feeding, and home-keeping can magically restore balance and calm in our out-of-sync lives. During the years of the global pandemic, Laura Calder, like many home cooks, found herself being drawn into the
kitchen
and becoming reacquainted with the power that the room can have to restore us when the going gets tough. In
Kitchen
Bliss
, she reflects on how and why the
kitchen
and the dining table have held such an important place in her life and indeed taught her about
happiness
. In her inimitably wise, warm, and quirky voice, she shares stories about everything from her shattered childhood fantasies about Sultana cake, to a gastronomically disastrous camel safari, the perilous vicissitudes of daily dishwashing by hand, and how she identifies (positively, if you can believe it) with ground meat. Stories and
musings
on Emily Post's concept of a 'Little Dinner' (for eight, a mere bagatelle!), unsatisfying adventures at cooking school, hopeless kitchens and how to cook in them anyway, and the English aversion to warm toast are all accompanied by
recipes
to soothe, inspire, and delight. Nothing too fancy here, just perfect
recipes
for dishes like Disgustingly Rich Potatoes, Salted Caramel Ice Cream, Hainanese Chicken Rice, and The Full Quebecois Breakfast. Come for the stories, stay for the
food
