Written by Ruth Reichl, the editor of Gourmet, "Comfort Me with Apples" chronicles her determined start as a food writer with a meager expense account, life on a commune in Berkely with her first husband, her gastronomic travels to France and China and her extraordinary encounters with chefs like Wolfgang Puck. It's passionately written by a woman who's passionate about food.
The pasta was so thin that it seemed to have vanished, leaving only a memory behind. What was left was simply the subtlety of the sauce, pure and light, as if the liquid has somehow taken solid form. It wasn't food, it was magic on a plate, and for a moment I disappeared into the flavour.
Oh...and the recipies peppering the book are equally delicious!
