Saturday Night Pasta: Recipes and self-care rituals for the home cook
Elizabeth Hewson
This is not a dramatic tale of overcoming incredible adversity. No loves have been lost, no hearts broken. This is a rather ordinary tale of finding myself and forming a ritual of self-care that I like to call Saturday Night Pasta.’
Saturday Night Pasta is therapy for the modern-day food lover, teaching self-care through the humble act of making pasta. Like the practice of meditation, making pasta by hand is a way of achieving self-discovery and mindfulness … with delicious results. Including stories, mantras, step-by-step guides to making different pasta shapes and basic doughs, trouble-shooting tips and 40 utterly mouthwatering recipes (with dried pasta substitutes for the time poor), this is a cookbook to inspire and empower.
Impressive, inspiring and charming - and you end up with Saturday night dinner. This book is so right for our times.
Ever on the pulse of the zeitgeist, Elizabeth Hewson's Saturday Night Pasta homes in on more than a love of our favourite carb: substantial foods that take time to perfect are nourishment for the soul in times of uncertainty, giving us far more than just a full and happy stomach.
Lizzie is the real deal, a passionate cook who has found a tonic to help deal with our stressful modern world.
