Cooking is thinking: about the liberating constraint of tying apron strings the meaning of appetite and bodily pleasure the wild subversiveness of the recipe the power of small fires burning everywhere. ________________FURTHER PRAISE FOR SMALL FIRES'Brave enough to hurt feelings, delicious enough for no one to care' New York Times'Smart, thoughtful, creative' Ruby Tandoh'Destined to become essential reading...
