Healing through cooking TOGETHER

At the Kensington Palace shop it was the first time I am seeing the Together cooking book that the Duchess of Sussex helped to produce.... I think every household should have a copy ... some good recipes but look at the whole concept for the book... I am taking the quote from Amazon where this book can also be purchased...All proceeds go to the Hubb Community Kitchen where there is a lot of healing going on through coming together to cook.
Together celebrates the power of cooking to connect us to one anotherIn the aftermath of the Grenfell Tower fire, a group of local women gathered together to cook fresh food for their families and neighbours.
Over the chatter and aromas of the kitchen they discovered the power of cooking and eating together to create connections, restore hope and normality, and provide a sense of home. This was the start of the Hubb Community Kitchen.
Together is a storybook of this West London community, showcasing over 50 delicious recipes from the women of the Hubb Community Kitchen and including a foreword by HRH The Duchess of Sussex.
The women invite you to make their favourite simple dishes - many handed down over generations - from the Middle East, North Africa, Europe and Eastern Mediterranean for you and your loved ones.
Every dish tells a story of history, culture and family, and each has been developed to use few ingredients and easy methods so that anyone can cook these personal recipes.
Together features mouthwatering recipes including Green Chilli and Avocado Dip, Coconut Chicken Curry, Aubergine Masala, Persian Chicken with Barberry Rice, Caramelised Plum Upside-Down Cake, Spiced Mint Tea and lots more.
This stunning charity cookbook is a homage to life, friendship and togetherness.
