Molly O'Neill - One ​Big Table
O'Neill, ​former New York Times Magazine food writer and author (New York Cookbook), has compiled an informative and heartwarming refutation of the demise of American home cooking. Ten years and many miles in the making, this collection celebrates the nation's culinary diversity, both ethnically and agriculturally, and offers a uniquely intimate look at what home cooking in America is truly like today. O'Neill crossed the country, interviewing home cooks and spending time in the kitchens of recent immigrants. The results are enticing recipes that intertwine family stories, personal histories, and food. From stuffed Danish pancakes in Utah to tamales in Santa Fe and Vietnamese shrimp pancakes in Mississippi, this eclectic collection showcases the best this country has to offer. O'Neill also includes old-style American fare, including black-eyed pea and mustard greens soup, corn chowder, campfire trout, and bluegrass bass with Kentucky caviar. Sidebars abound on everything from black sea bass to Johnny Appleseed, Elvis to shrimp. As engaging in the armchair as it is in the kitchen, this book is an enduring testament to our historic traditions and the new culinary forays being made by American home cooks.

Jamie Oliver - The ​Naked Chef
When ​I started out I was pretty much making it up as I went along. I just wanted to share my favourite recipes and a bit of what I'd learned from all the great chefs I'd worked with. That's why the recipes are still so great to cook: they're simple and honest and fresh. Tehy've aged better than my haircut anyway. Big Love, Jamie

Jamie Oliver - Jamie ​at Home
This ​book is very close to my heart. It's about no-nonsense, simple cooking with great flavours all year round. When I began writing it, I didn't really know what recipes I would come up with, but something began to inspire me very quickly... my vegetable patch! I came to realise last year that it's not always about looking out at the wider world for inspiration. Being at home, feeling relaxed and open, can also offer this. I love to spend time at home in the village where I grew up, working with the boss, Mother Nature, in my garden and seeing all my beautiful veggies coming out of the ground. Inside you'll find over 100 new recipes, plus some basic planting information and tips if you fancy having a go at getting your hands dirty as well!

Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall - Veg ​Every Day
'Call ​me power-crazed, but I'm trying to change your life here. The object of the exercise is to persuade you to eat more vegetables. Many more vegatables. And I hope to do so not by shouting from a soapbox, but through sheer temptation...'

Diane Kochilas - Simply ​Plated! 2
One ​of the most telling characteristics of Greek cuisine is its regionality. Greece is a small country with a big table, much of it rooted in the regional traditions of the islands, mainland, and mountains. In this, our second edition of the award-winning Simply Plated! we decided to offer up a table full of dishes from two of the most unique Greek regions, Crete and Santorini: Crete because it is the cradle of the Mediterranean and the mother of the Mediterranean Diet, an island with a vast variety of raw ingredients that have been the foundation of the table from time immemorial; and Santorini, because it is the complete opposite, bone-dry, volcanic, minimal, with a cuisine forged of a dearth of raw ingredients but honed into a delicious whole thanks to the ingenuity of generations of island cooks who took the handful of basic ingredients that are the foundation of Santorini's table and created a simple, healthful, timeless cuisine. Both islands, are, of course, among the most popular tourist destinations in Greece. The cooking of Crete is arguably the most complete of all the regions of Greece. It is a cuisine where Minoan elements have persisted and flourished through the ages, with ingredients such as honey, barley, snails and wild greens as important to the Cretan table today as they were several thousand years ago. Crete is one of the most important agricultural hubs of Greece, a major producer of citrus fruits, tomatoes and other vegetables, olive oil and olives, and more. Its cheeses are savored all over Greece and exported all over the world. Its thyme honey is exquisite. Its mountains and ravines are host to one of the widest selection of wild greens and herbs–well over 300 edible varieties of both–in all of Europe. The entire cuisine of the Aegean culminates in Crete, a paean to simplicity, seasonality, and variety. Raw ingredients such as greens find their place in myriad dishes, from small hand-held pies browned in the island’s award-winning olive oil to stews and braised dishes that combine healthful greens and vegetables with all sorts of other protein, from lamb and goat to snails, octopus, cuttlefish and squid, to fish and seafood. This combination of greens and vegetables with more expensive meats, fish, etc., is an age-old way to stretch a meal but it is also surprisingly contemporary, as more and more nutritionists today support the ample presence of vegetables in any given dish. In Santorini, the palate of flavors is limited to a few simple ingredients, mainly the island’s famed yellow split pea, some fish and meat, its gorgeous, small tomatoes, white eggplants, simple cheeses and grapes. Santorini is arguably the most unique vineyard in all the Mediterranean. With this seeming paucity of raw ingredients, however, the island’s cuisine has developed a distinct, regional character. We drew on the traditional dishes of both places but also enlisted two distinguished island cooks to create a handful of modern dishes using Crete’s and Santorini’s ancient palette of ingredients. The result is a selection of more than 25 Simply Plated, simply delicious dishes, both savory and sweet, that are timeless, timely, healthful, perfect choices for today, no matter where you are.

Amrita Sondhi - The ​Tastes of Ayurveda
Ayurveda, ​the five thousand-year-old healing tradition from India linked to the development of yoga, is based on the concept that one's physical, mental, and spiritual well-being comes from a number of sources, including a healthful diet based on one's individual constitution. In this vegetarian cookbook, Amrita Sondhi, author of The Modern Ayurvedic Cookbook (now in its fourth printing), provides new twists on traditional Ayurvedic recipes that are also inspired by the growing popularity of whole grains (quinoa, spelt, and barley) and raw foods. The Ayurvedic diet is based on the concept of three "doshas": vata (air), pitta (fire), and kapha (earth). Each of us has a primary dosha that we can strive to maintain at a healthy balance, but which can cause problems if excessive. The book includes a questionnaire so readers can determine their own primary dosha and then look for recipes that will help them to maintain or reduce it for optimal health. Recipes include modern interpretations of Indian cuisine (spicy paneer zucchini kabobs and mango and coconut kulfi), and Ayurvedic spins on vegetarian fare (sprouted barley rainbow pilaf and raw zucchini hummus). The book also includes yoga and breathing exercises that one can easily do at home or at work, full-color recipe photos, and information on sprouting/fermenting techniques and backyard gardening. The Tastes of Ayurveda offers simple and delicious ways to achieve a more healthful and serene life. Amrita Sondhi is a yoga instructor, Ayurvedic cooking teacher, and the owner of Movement, a sustainable fiber clothing line.
