Book Description

Series: Good Food Magazine | Publication Date: January 2003

Had a frustrating day? Journey home a nightmare? Or just plain feeling blue? There's nothing more solacing than food. And not just the obvious indulgences like chocolate - just think how mood-elevating a bacon sandwich can be. There is an essential wholesomeness to comfort food, a familiarity and hearty solidity that never fails to deliver. Comfort Food contains over 175 recipes and ideas that will do just this, demonstrating that comfort food, as well as being consoling, can be interesting, lively, colourful and varied. Mouthwatering dishes such as Potted Salmon, Chicken and Bacon Casserole and Mango and Passion Fruit Roulade are guaranteed to bring a smile to your face - and ensure your friends and family rush back for more.

Editorial Reviews

Review

Over 200 recipes from the Good Food team guaranteed to pick you up and make you feel better. For this is comfort food, food that works magic not just with your taste buds but with your entire mood. This is food to give you a lift, dispel the winter blues, help you unwind after a busy and frustrating day. And there's more to comfort food than deep-fried Mars bars and bacon sandwiches, although all these recipes are easy to produce and strong on taste and flavour. There's also an emphasis on low-fat and sensible eating. Comfort food doesn't have to be bad for you: if naughty is sometimes nice there's ample proof here that sensible and within reason are not so bad either, even if they don't sound quite so tempting.
