From the James Beard-recognized creator of Cannelle et Vanille--lauded by everyone from Bon Appetit to Dorie Greenspan--comes 100 recipes that show us how to bring more joy and mindfulness to the kitchen, and connection around the table, through family-friendly meals that are satisfying, yet decidedly unfussy.

"Cannelle et Vanille will have you re-booting your pantry and
fridge with all manner of seed butters, nut milks, hazelnut dukkah
and homemade yogurt. And you'll be rethinking how you cook, because
Aran is a master who can turn a wee set of ingredients into a
bountiful feast. The recipes are a beautiful expression of how Aran
feeds her family and friends simple foods like buttermilk brined
roast chicken and roasted carrot and cashew soup. This is a book
for all cooks, and one that we plan to turn to for years to
come."
--Amanda Hesser and Merrill Stubbs, founders of Food52 "This
beautiful book is brimming with recipes celebrating the idea that
centering life around a nourishing kitchen is something worth
striving for."
--Heidi Swanson, author of Super Natural Cooking
"In a time when we're bombarded with online images of 'perfect'
lives, I love that Aran is so real: a working artist and mother for
whom cooking is therapy--a practical remedy for the aches and pains
of being human. Her book shines not only for its stunning
photographs and its inventive everyday recipes but also for the
generosity of her voice. Keep a copy in your kitchen, and I know
you'll reach for it often."
--Molly Wizenberg, author of A Homemade Life and Delancey
"The recipes make sense for everyday life, and they are wholesome
without subscribing to a particular diet. Reading about and cooking
Aran's food takes me to another place--one that is calm and
lovely--and inspires me towards a table with friends."
--Sara Forte, Sprouted Kitchen and Sprouted Kitchen Bowl +
Spoon
"Filled with inspired yet down-to-earth stories and recipes, Aran's
beautiful book opens up her personal world of food to make ours
more delicious."
--Renee Erickson, chef of Sea Creatures restaurants and author of A
Boat, a Whale & a Walrus
"Aran's recipes are both comforting and inventive. They ignite
excitement in me as I pull together ingredients in a way I never
thought possible, and yet they are familiar, warm, and inviting as
I believe food should be. This book also reminds me to slow down,
be present, and fill each day with intention."
--Ashley Rodriguez, author of Date Night In and Let's Stay In
"Aran's book is a journey of food, nourishment, and family. It is
generous and robust in both story and recipes. The food is
foundational and celebratory--it makes us want to cook, eat, and
live authentically with the ones we love."
--Karen Mordechai, creator of Sunday Suppers and author of Simple
Fare
"A collection of the intuitive, wholesome recipes synonymous with
Aran's philosophy, which is informed by time, place, and tradition.
Her thoughtful approach to meals is a needed lesson in our busy
days."
--Tara O'Brady, food writer and author of Seven Spoons
