Are you ready to create meals from around the world? Salmon caviar! Pasta with white truffles! Cheddar tarts!

Bestselling author of "Simple," Diana Henry delivers a delicate and delicious cookbook filled with recipes and personal stories for all seasons. Travel around the world and discover the perfect menu for a dinner party or a family weekend meal. Henry's menu descriptions sound like poems. 

"Constant cravings hot, sour, salty, sweet" or "...it's all about the pasta, a lunch to soothe, midnightat the oasis, drunk on olive oil" While some might focus on the savory treats including crepes dentelles with sautéed apples & caramel or ricotta, candied lemon peel & pistachio ice cream, others will focus on the comfort foods like spatchocked chicken with chili, garlic, parsley & almond pangrattato or pumpkin soup with sage butter. Henry engages readers who cook every night to people who just want to cook something different once a month. 

A shopping guide for unique ingredients is included. A plus, the book cover feels like a peach! How will you transfer each beautiful photograph to a dish on your table? Explore the Smithsonian Ten Best Books about Food of 2018 and discover a new cookbook at your library.
