A GENEROUS MEAL: MODERN RECIPES FOR DINNER
A Generous Meal is a cookbook, but it is also a sort of quiet manifesto about the pleasures of the table. It is about taking time to cook and eat in a way that is gentle and enjoyable in more ways than one—I find it incredible how little is required to be kind to yourself and to others and how easy it is to create a thoughtful, nourishing meal. This will not look the same to everyone, or the same on any given day, and so there are myriad recipes, which are really just solutions to the puzzle of what’s for dinner tonight. I hope this selection will make cooking and eating dinner more enjoyable for you one night soon—something you look forward to as a way to take care of yourself and the people around you.
