Media Reviews
'From creative breakfast ideas to zingy salads, elegant dinners and gorgeous 'tea trolley' recipes, Everyday is as stylish as Peter Gordon's restaurant menus are forward thinking. It's no wonder this godfather has stayed at the top of the fusion game for all these years.' Olive 'Genuinely easy cooking for every day, but with a Peter Gordon twist - balsamic butter on scones, a soup of cucumber, coconut and dill, and dried fruit with maple syrup and almonds. All delicious, all easy, all different.' Country Life 'Peter Gordon's fusion cooking is exciting stuff, but it's often full of impossibly hard-to-find ingredients for the home cook. In this book he uses only supermarket-sourced ingredients and the methods are simple but it's still full of his distinctive and innovative flavours and textures.' Fork 'Peter Gordon makes entertaining simple with inspiring brunch and dinner recipes.' Food & Travel 'Peter Gordon, the father of fusion food, is best known as the chef-owner of The Providores and Tapa Room in Marylebone and Covent Gardens Kopapa. He is also widely admired for being one of a surprisingly small group of chefs who actually write their own cookbooks- no ghostwriters here. His new book, Peter Gordon Everyday, is deliberately approachable. Simple touches include seasoning a mushroom and hazelnut soup, otherwise very French in its creamy richness, with soy sauce. When I tested the recipe (a very smooth process, as the recipes are clear and easy to follow) the soy gave the soup rounded character as well as a salty boost- a neat trivk. Chapters covering breakfast and brunch, soups, pasta, salads, dinner, sides and puds will appeal to cooks who want to experiment but dont feel confident enough to go it alone.' -- Emma Sturgess METRO 'Peter Gordon's food is the finest example of culinary magic.' -- Yotam Ottolenghi 'A quality cookbook with fabulous recipes that can be cooked every day of the week, but are simple and straightforward, creating impressive results.'
