Long acknowledged as the inspiration for modern masters like Julia Child & Claudia Roden, A Book of Mediterranean Food is Elizabeth David’s passionate mixture of recipes, culinary lore, & frank talk. First published in 1950, it has been unavailable in hardback since the 1960s, so Grub Street is delighted to restore it in a facsimile edition alongside other Elizabeth David hardbacks. The book features recipes from her time in France, Italy, the Greek Islands & Egypt, showcasing the color & fun of the Mediterranean. Dishes include soupe au pistou, pebronata from Corsica, & skordalia of the Greeks; some are sumptuous, many simple, most sublime. Ingredients are readily available today, often using familiar vegetables, fish & herbs in new ways. David includes interesting sidelights on eating habits, extracts from famous authors, memorable meals, & insights on cookery & eating. Illustrations by John Minton embellish the text.

In Jewish tradition, holidays are a time for family and feasting, and for Joan Nathan, nothing embodies the holiday spirit more than cooking delicious festive favorites with friends and loved ones. When her own children were young, Nathan published the first version of this book, which covers nine Jewish holidays and includes step-by-step instructions for kids and their families to prepare accessible feasts.

Now she updates a beloved go-to resource for her grandchildren’s generation (Out with the Pot Roast! In with the Tahini Shakes!) and adds a heaping helping of new recipes. Included are dishes old and new, traditional and novel, and mouthwatering recipes that everyone will enjoy, from Moroccan Apricot Chicken and Chicken Schnitzel Tenders to Mushroom Kreplach Dumplings and Veggie Quiche.

Included are essays on the history of Jewish holidays, instructions for how to celebrate them, and craft activities such as making challah covers and candlesticks. Here are also personal essays on how Nathan’s family celebrates the holidays and various menus that can be mixed and matched. For young chefs, recipes also specify the ingredients, equipment, and steps suitable for children to do both by themselves or with adults. This charming book is the comprehensive guide to Jewish holidays and celebrations, and it will help make memories that will last a lifetime.

Nigella Lawson described Anna Del Conte's book Portrait of Pasta as 'The book that actually changed the way the English thought about Italian cooking… and the instrumental force in leading us from the land of spag bol, macaroni cheese and tinned ravioli'.

Now Anna Del Conte has fully updated and revised that book, introducing many new recipes, to create Anna Del Conte On Pasta.

This is a delicious collection of 120 recipes, many of which can be cooked within minutes. The book starts with a fascinating historical account of pasta, then guides you through how to cook pasta, and explores the different types of pasta. The recipes, which come from every region of Italy, are divided into easy to navigate chapters on meat, dairy, vegetables, soups, stuffed and baked pastas.

This is a classic Italian cookbook, and will quickly prove essential in your kitchen.

For the French, the fleeting interlude between a long workday and the evening meal to come is not meant to be hectic or crazed. Instead, that time is a much-needed chance to pause, take a breath, and reset with light drinks and snacks. Whether it's a quick affair before dashing out the door to your favorite Parisian bistro or a lead-up to a more lavish party, Apéritif is about kicking off the night, rousing the appetite, and doing so with the carefree spirit of connection and conviviality. Apéritif celebrates that easygoing lifestyle with simple yet stylish recipes for both classic and modern French apéritif-style cocktails, along with French-inspired bites and hors d'oeuvres. Keeping true to the apéritif tradition, you'll find cocktail recipes that use lighter, low-alcohol spirits, fortified wines, and bitter liqueurs.

Over 65 delightful recipes for bar bites, cocktails, and spritzes that you transport you to the bustling excitement of an Italian aperitivo!

Ask any Italian, and they’ll tell you that aperitivo hour isn’t the same as an American happy hour; it’s a state of mind, and a way of being. It’s a time to focus on the present moment, and digest the day, while preparing to digest the dinner to follow.

It is also the ideal time to try a classic Italian drink. Traditionally cocktails are light on alcohol and bitter in taste, meaning they pair well with the salty snacks on offer. Campari or slightly sweeter Aperol mixed with soda are classic choices, or enjoyed in a spritz (with the addition of sparkling wine). If you’re after something with more of a kick, you won't be disappointed by Italy's most famous cocktail, the Negroni, or a lighter sbagliato.

Delicious bite-size snacks and small plates are served alongside drinks and, depending on which part of Italy y
