The Ultimate Meat and Poultry Cookbook 706319 LS+ $34.99 Kosher meat is prized by home chefs of all faiths for its high quality, savoury flavour and the humane and well-supervised conditions it was raised and butchered under. The 120 all-new, innovative meat and poultry recipes in The Kosher Carnivore will delight families who keep kosher, but will satisfy other cooks as well once they discover the fresh mixture of classic, elegantly ethnic and innovative recipes, such as: Standing Prime Rib with Yorkshire Pudding; Classic Pot Roast; Grilled Steak Chimichurri; Slow-day BBQ Brisket; Moroccan Chicken; Crispy Fried Chicken; Pesto-Crusted Lamb; Orecchiette Pasta with Turkey Sausage and Broccoli Rabe; Pan-seared Duck Breasts with Figs and Madeira; The Perfect Burger. The Kosher Carnivore focuses on meat, but provides fantastic dairy-free soups, side dishes, marinades and sauces, too – from Creamed Spinach without the butter or cream, to Fresh Guacamole. It also provides complete and smart instructions on how to grill, roast, braise, stew and pansear, along with tips from expert butchers, organic farmers, a leading cookware and gadget guru, a wine authority and a knife skills professional: all there to help the home cook buy and prepare the best in kosher meat and poultry.

The Thrifty Cookbook LS+ 698799 $24.99 This book is not about buying fresh, organic, sustainable, freerange ingredients. It is not about creating picture-perfect dishes or even super-healthy ones. It is not about wowing guests with slick menus and asymmetric flower arrangements. It's about the bit that comes afterwards, the bit about eating it all up. We throw away tons of food a year - and about half of it could be eaten. Imagine saving several hundred dollars every year (about $40,000 over a lifetime) and creating a carbon saving equivalent to taking a fifth of all cars off the road. Amazingly, we could do both simply by eating up our leftovers instead of consigning them to methanebelching landfills. The French know how to do it, and our grandparents did too. In this timely and much-anticipated book, acclaimed writer and journalist Kate Colquhoun explains how to make the most of our food. Included are recipes for meat balls and fish cakes, simple stocks and soups, inventive rice and pasta dishes, and great pies and pickles, as well as sensible ideas for spare egg yolks and whites, wrinkly fruit and veg, and stale bread and cakes.
