“My cookbooks are passion projects, collecting recipes that I cook in my home, filled with photographs of real food and the real people I share them with. You’ll find tips, tricks and techniques that will help you get the recipe right the first time. These are cookbooks meant to be used in the kitchen and enjoyed equally in your favorite chair with a cup of tea. Thank you for your purchase. It is an honor to have a place in your home.”
