781849 756679 This vibrant and earthy green tea dressing is packed with antioxidants and healthful flavours. To taste the real benefits of this vital vinaigrette, try to use a good cold-pressed extra virgin olive oil. I often replace half of the olive oil with an omega 3-6-9 oil from a health-food shop and add a spoonful of raw cacao nibs with the herbs. The umami secret in this recipe is the mixing of all five basic tastes; sweet, sour, bitter and salty meld with the green tea to really bring out the umami in the asparagus.

LAURA SANTTINI is a food writer and gastropreneur who burst onto the food scene in September 2009 with her debut book Easy Tasty Italian , which won her the coveted Best First Book Award at the Guild Of Food Writers Awards in 2010. She followed this success with the popular Flash Cooking in 2011 in which she pioneered a new cooking genre. This is her first book for Ryland Peters & Small.

MATCHA LEMON DRESSING, QUINOA & ASPARAGUS SALAD FOR THE SALAD: 1

100 g/ ⁄2 cup black or red quinoa (I prefer black because it is the crunchiest) sea salt and freshly ground black pepper 2 tablespoons olive oil a bunch of asparagus spears, woody ends cut off 4 oranges 2 large avocados, peeled, stoned/pitted and cut into chunks 1 large red onion, finely sliced handful of mint, roughly chopped handful of basil, roughly chopped 4 large handfuls rocket/arugula leaves

FOR THE DRESSING:

7 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil 1 garlic clove, crushed freshly squeezed juice of 1 lemon 1 teaspoon matcha green tea pinch of wasabi paste or powder to taste (optional) sea salt and freshly ground black pepper TO S E RV E :

1 handful toasted pumpkin seeds S E RV E S 4

Rinse the quinoa in cold water and then cook in a large pan of salted boiling water for about 12–20 minutes (depending on the colour) until the grains become soft but still have some bite. Meanwhile, make the dressing by combining all the ingredients apart from the oil in a bowl and then whisk in the oil. Season to taste and set aside. Once cooked drain, stir through a little olive oil to stop it from sticking together and set aside to cool. Steam or boil the asparagus until cooked and the stalks are al dente. Remove from heat, drain and refresh under cold running water to fix the colour and set aside. Slice each stalk on the diagonal into thumb-length spears. With a sharp knife cut down the sides of the oranges to remove the skin and pith and slice the orange into 1 cm/ 1⁄2 inch discs. Save any juice from the oranges to add to your dressing. Peel and dice the avocados into large chunks. Put all the salad ingredients, including the herbs and rocket/arugula, into a large serving dish and toss together. To serve, pour the dressing onto the salad and combine well. Serve with a scattering of toasted pumpkin seeds.

AT HOME WITH UMAMI | 55

Food & Drink

Umami is the super-savoury fifth basic taste. It is both ubiquitous and elusive, present but often unrecognized, and it has the extraordinary ability to enhance individual flavours, transporting dishes to another level. It is the taste that keeps on giving long after salty, sweet, bitter and sour flavours are spent. Umami is a Japanese word that translates as ‘savoury deliciousness’, but it is far from a Far Eastern concept. It is absolutely universal and does not belong to any single culture – it can be shared, enjoyed and appreciated by all those in possession of a tongue. Everyone has experienced it – the salted anchovy that melts into the tomato of a pizza, the irresistible marriage of pancetta and Parmesan in a creamy spaghetti carbonara or the rich, caramelized chorizo in a pan-fried calamari and chorizo salad. Once understood, umami is your best friend both in and out of the kitchen. It is a total game-changer for cooks of all levels who want to grab life with both hands and lick it. In this book, you’ll discover extraordinary new flavour combinations in dishes such as baked Camembert with Parmigiano Reggiano and Roasted Cherry Tomatoes, Peppered Seared Tuna with Matcha Miso Vinaigrette and Coconut and Cardamom Butter Chicken. This book contains a taste of the wonder and magic of umami, and once bitten you will forever be smitten.

Vegan Street Food Jackie Kearney, MasterChef finalist in 2011, has brought her two lifelong passions – travel and vegan food – together in a stunning new book. Jackie and her family ate their way around Asia, sampling street food and jotting menu ideas on the back of napkins. Inspired by these food cultures, Jackie has brought new life to healthy, meat- and dairy-free food, inspired by the quantity of vegan food on offer in Asia. Dotted with personal anecdotes from her travels, family photos and fascinating local information, Jackie takes us from India to Indonesia on a journey of tastes and textures, via Sri Lanka, Thailand, Vietnam, Laos and Malaysia. Recipes includes classic dishes, such as Simple Sri Lankan Daal or Cauliflower and Kale Pakora, as well as regional specialities such as Oothapam (vegetable crumpets from South India) or Tahu Campur (Javanese fried tofu with cassava cakes). Street food is a central part of life in Asia. It brings families and communities together from breakfast to dinner, through all the scrumptious snacks along the way. With this book, you can bring this inspirational approach to eating into your own kitchen. Celebrate vegan food, without compromising on flavour or protein, or trying to makes substitutions for meat or fish. That is the beauty of this collection of Asian streetfood – it is simply delicious, and it just so happens to be vegan.

Whether you’re following the paleo diet, cutting out processed food or simply looking for a delicious way to get more nutrients into your diet, a steaming bowl of hot broth is an ancient tonic for modern life. Extremely nutritious, packed full of taste and simple to make, broth is an age-old staple of many traditional diets around the world. Broth made by simmer bones and vegetables for many hours is thought to have many health benefits and healing properties, such as reducing inflammation, maintaining a healthy gut, inhibiting infection and promoting strong bones, hair and nails. Popular with those following paleo diets, bone broth is a primal food that is easily incorporated into modern lives. Learn to make basic broths with meat, poultry and fish bones, as well as nourishing vegetable broths too. Drink the broth as it is for a warming and mineral-packed pick-me-up or incorporate it in a variety of recipes, using it instead of store-bought stock. Try Chicken Noodle Soup, French Onion Soup, Vegetable Risotto, Beef and Mushroom Stew or Shellfish Bisque. Whatever the recipe or occasion, pack your cooking with nutrients and you'll feel the benefits in no time. • Bone broth is one of the top healthy food trends for 2015, according to the Independent (January 2015) and Cosmopolitan (December 2014). • With paleo cafés springing up in New York selling bone broth, it is now quickly gaining popularity in the UK.

A lovely soup to serve in the summer when fresh peas and mint are plentiful. Vialone nano is the favourite risotto rice in the Veneto region. It is a semi-fino round grain rice, best for soups and risotti, but arborio (a superfino used mainly for risotti) will do very nicely.

Different regions of Italy have their own classic rice dishes, from the soupy Rice and Peas of the Veneto to the Hunter’s-style Rabbit Risotto of Umbria and Tuscany, but what they all have in common is the careful cooking of the rice to perfection.

Children and adults alike will enjoy Ham and Leek Risotto, while you can impress guests with Pheasant and Red Wine Risotto.

With useful recipes for various stocks, easy-to-follow instructions of making a basic risotto and a guide to the different kinds of rice available, this is a complete guide to risotto for all lovers of the classic Italian dish.

Mezze Mezze features a mouth-watering collection of Mediterranean and Middle Eastern dips, bites, salads and other small plates to share, to enjoy as a appetizers or light meals. An ancient tradition, mezze is the heart and soul of modern culinary life in Turkey and the Middle East. The word ‘mezze’ (‘meze’ in Turkey and ‘mazza’ in Syria and Lebanon) is thought to have derived from the Persian ‘maza’ meaning ‘taste’ or ‘relish’ which is exactly what it is – something tasty – designed to be savoured with a glass of tea, wine or beer, a fruit sherbet, or a yogurt drink with the aim of pleasing the palate, not to fill the belly. At its simplest, mezze can be a bowl of gleaming olives marinated in lemon juice and crushed coriander seeds, or a mixture of roasted nuts and seeds tossed in salt and dried thyme. At its most elaborate, it can be presented as an entire feast comprising a myriad of little colourful dishes, each the bearer of something savoury or sweet but always utterly delicious. In this book, you’ll discover such exciting recipes as Purple Carrots and Saffron Pears; Savoury Pastries filled with Feta and Herbs; Cinnamon-flavoured Meatballs; Aromatic Stuffed Mussels; Parsley and Bulgur Salad; Refreshing Cucumber Strips sprinkled with Salt; Sautéed Halloumi dusted with Za’atar; and Velvety Yogurt and Sweet Helva – nothing beats the magic of mezze.

The book begins with the reliable, nostalgic classics and variants on classics, including Baked Bourbon, Smoky Chipotle and Buttermilk Fried Wings. Fancy your wings hot and spicy? Then look no further than Harissa Hot Wings and Habanero and Pineapple – the latter taking the edge off the super spicy heat. If you like to keep abreast of the bold new flavours out there, help yourself to another portion of Cola Wings, Sticky Lime and Maple Wings or the unspeakably decadent Dark Chocolate Mole Wings. Fancy something lighter and a little less outrageous? Then why not tuck in to the fragrant Baked Pistachio Wings or the deliciously subtle Lemon, Basil and Pepper Wings. If you’ve got a craving for Take-Out from the comfort of your own home, then Szechuan Plum Sauce Wings or Teriyaki Wings might be right up your alley. This book truly has something for everyone and something for every occasion.

Winter Cabin Fireside FoodCooking for Cold Winter Nights Bring the warmth of a winter cabin to your home with this mouthwatering collection of recipes inspired by the cuisines of mountain villages and ski towns around the world. Winter is the perfect time to take a break from the pace of modern life, slow down and savour a nourishing home-cooked meal. It doesn’t have to take hours – many recipes take a little preparation and can then be left to simmer, bake or roast to perfection. For this book, Lizzie Kamenetzky has taken inspiration from snow-covered mountains and Alpine chalets, with all her favourite food from ski towns and winter holidays. Start the day with a sustaining breakfasts such as Creamy Porridge with Heather Honey or Tiroler Gröstl before heading out into the cold. For lunch, only something hearty will do – try French Onion Soup or Schnitzel. Mid-afternoon, when fingers are numb, retreat to the warmth of indoors and enjoy a tea-time treat such as Madeleines or Linzertorte with a steaming cup of coffee. For evening entertaining, there are lots of comforting recipes to try, such as Cassoulet, Confit Duck or Spaghetti Bolognese. For those with a sweet tooth, finish the meal with a Crème Brûlée or Tarte Tatin. This is food for warming the soul, for snuggling up against the cold, for firesides and crackling logs, and for blankets in cosy winter cabins.
