Description
xThe kitchen is the soul of the home. 'The Social Kitchen' cookbook honours energy, effervescence and joie de vivre. It's designed to encapsulate a mother's philosophy: to encourage people to cook, to enjoy life, to give back, to entertain, to create, and to have fun.
The daughter grew up in a Jewish South African-inspired 'madhouse' in London where her parents entertained family and friends constantly. The number of guests would range anywhere from two to a casual 50. Their friends would turn up at all hours of the day with the understanding that there was always something to eat and there always was. From cakes, salads and roast dinners, one thing was always certain no one would leave hungry.
Despite suffering from several illnesses, she was always busy making and creating something. But, she never did anything alone. If friends intended to come visit for a quick cup of tea; they would inevitably stay all day to help roll out the dough or chop the vegetables. She had an incredible ability to include, create, empathize and listen. The kitchen table bears the tears and joys of all of their friends and family. It holds the tribulations and triumphs that were quietly revealed while she was preparing something delicious for everyone to enjoy.
It's her book of wisdom, humour and quirky ideologies. It is the perfect tribute to a flawless wife, mother and daughter. The book features recipes, stories and even some of her crafty ideas. All of which built the foundations of the 'Social Kitchen', which they grew up in, and love!
