For many of us, the love of cooking has been lost in the busyness of life. This is a book overflowing with beautiful, comforting recipes that allows us to rediscover the joy of connecting with others at the end of a long day through simple, delicious, joyous food. Gretchen loves combining unexpected flavours with recognisable classics for outstanding results. There are tried-and-true crowd pleasers, slow-cook dishes for the weekend, sharing plates for when friends and family gather, fill-the-tins baking, wholesome brunches, decadent desserts and much more besides. Make your kitchen the heart of your home once more and bring back the joy of cooking.
