I’ve read the « midnight chicken » after your recommendation. Although I am a vegetarian, either fan of comfort foods, I find her writings easy to understand, comforting and helpful ❤. Thank you
This was so special!! 🫶 Thank you for putting this together. Midnight Chicken is a fave of Sophie’s too, and the bit you read sounded so beautiful. Loved seeing how happy you are when you speak about Out of Our Kitchen Closets, I’ve got to hunt that one down. The Great Kosher Meat War has definite spice, I’ve added that to my TBR. Appreciate you putting this video up on our first little readathon attempt!! 🍜🥧🥖🍽️
Oh so thrilled that you did make this!! Out Of Our Kitchen Closets sounds amaaazing, adding that to my wish list 😍 I also adore Midnight Chicken! That exact extract made me weep when I first read it 🙈 She has a substack which you might enjoy? You only get access to a small number of full writings on the free version of it but I still enjoy getting a little update from her every now and then 😊 I turn down corners for all the recipes I'm interested in trying in a cookbook and then I also sometimes pop sticky notes out of the top of ones which seem either like a top priority or quite an easy start point. I find it suuuper helpful to have a little visual start point that reminds me what I was actually interested in, because then when I have the time or I'm looking at what food to pick up in my shop I can shortcut to recipes and remember what on earth I wanted to do 😆 Having bread in the title is 100% enough to count for a foodie book in my books 😂 This was a lovely video as always, thank you for taking the time!!
Sounds great. Midnight chicken is gorgeous, it has my fav chicken curry recipe in it. I recently read Small Fires by Rebecca may Johnson (non fiction) and the language of food by Annabelle abbs (fiction) and enjoyed both.
I recommend The Antiracist Kitchen: 21 Stories (and Recipes) edited by Nadia Hohn and published by Orca. Its primary audience is children but I think adults can get a lot from it as well, especially as a way to talk to children about racism and bullying. I hope it’s available in the UK. As to your question about working your way through a cookbook, I do that sometimes as a challenge to myself, skipping recipes that don’t interest me and making substitutions in others. Time consuming recipes can often be approached in steps, like assembling ingredients or cutting up all the vegetables when you have the most energy, then completing the cooking process later.
the antiracist kitchen sounds lovely !! i'll definitely see if its available near me. approaching recipes in steps is a rly good idea, i'll see if that would help! i guess it must take a bit more planning but i think it would be worth it if the end result is fun, delicious food!

@@actual-spinster Yes, it’s fun to try new recipes, learning as you go, and then eating the results. 😊
