"The food writer (and photographer) for the world to watch." - The Spectator From the beloved author of A Table for Friends , more than 100 nourishing recipes to bring people together - and a culinary love letter to cooking and eating with heart. For Skye McAlpine, there's no better way to say "I love you" than with food. With recipes collected over a lifetime of meals prepared and shared, and with sections like Comfort, Seduce, Spoil, Nourish, and Cocoon, A Table Full of Love teaches you the culinary love language to say it, too. Whether mending a friend's heartbreak with baked fennel and burrata gratin, seducing someone new with roast duck legs and winter citrus, nourishing family with the perfect eggs on toast, or gathering all of them together around a lit birthday cake, Skye McAlpine knows the flavor of any dish is more than its ingredients. Rather, it's the emotions and memories we collect over a lifetime of cooking and being cooked for. In A Table Full of Love , these feelings are cherished and created anew through recipes for every meal that celebrate the most invaluable reason to cook: to fill a table with love. Read more
