Kitchen Wisdom: 108 Cosy Recipes from Traditional Kitchens

Cosy recipes from traditional kitchens, with an honest look at the research

Kitchen Wisdom is a collection of 108 simple recipes inspired by food traditions from around the world: Brazilian family tables, Mediterranean kitchens, Ayurvedic spice jars, Chinese autumn pears and old European herb gardens. The recipes focus on accessible ingredients, with metric measures throughout.

What makes it different

Every recipe comes with three short notes: Traditionally used for (the history and folklore), What research suggests (what studies have and haven’t found, in plain English) and Take care (precautions and who should check with a doctor or pharmacist first). We tell you which is tradition and which is evidence, and we never promise a cure.
