‘Wonderful book … I regard it as a sacred text! I can best describe
it as the most beautifully written description of what cooking is
all about, and what it actually is, with recipes. It has such
wisdom and calmness and, yes, grace’ - Nigella Lawson
‘Like Nigella Lawson’s How to Eat, it’s a book to gorge on for
its quiet, gentle and uplifting wisdom’ - Best Food Books of 2022,
The Times
‘Tamar Adler has brought calm to many kitchens … A lady to know in
these times of economic distress’ - Victoria Prever, Jewish
Chronicle
'This apt book about “eating affordably, responsibly and well”
isn’t a conventional cookbook – though there are plenty of recipes
in it – but a thought-provoking reflection on the meaning of
cooking and eating. It takes us back to basics, such as how to
avoid mushy rice, putting stale bread to good use and knowing when
veg is cooked’ – Charlotte Heathcote, Sunday Express
'The beauty of the book is in Adler’s prose. This will make a
lovely gift for a foodie friend who loves to think more deeply
about sourcing, cooking and producing meals. There is a lot to get
one’s teeth into in this intelligent and reflective book. It is one
of those volumes that once read, one will return to again and again
as the style of writing draws one back into its pages' - Madeleine
Morrow, London Unattached
‘Tamar Adler has written the best book on ‘cooking with economy and
grace’ that I have read since MFK Fisher’ Michael Pollan ‘Tamar
Adler is more than a wonderful food writer—she is a wonderful
writer … A profound book’ Sheila Heti ‘Reads less like a cookbook
than like a recipe for a delicious life’ New York Magazine ‘An
Everlasting Meal is beautifully intimate, approaching cooking as a
narrative that begins not with a list of ingredients or a tutorial
on cutting an onion, but with a way of thinking ... Tamar is one of
the great writers I know – her prose is exquisitely crafted,
beautiful and clear-eyed and open, in the thoughtful spirit of
M.F.K. Fisher. This is a book to sink into and read deeply’ Alice
Waters, chef and owner of Chez Panisse 'Lessons so right and so
eloquent that I think of them as homilies’ New York Times Book
