“Karen Mordechai offers a gentle reminder to slow down and enjoy
preparing simple meals to share with loved ones. You won't find
trendy, complicated recipes in Sunday Suppers—her focus is on
gathering around a communal table where good food leads to good
conversation. From brunch to picnics to birthdays, Karen provides
wholesome recipes that will nourish body and soul.”
—Nathan Williams, founding editor of Kinfolk
“Sitting down to a meal with others is always an opportunity to
learn, explore, ask questions, and expand one’s worldview. It might
mean meeting someone unexpected, or deepening existing friendships.
Sunday Suppers celebrates the act of connecting over a shared meal.
The recipes are gorgeous, and the photography sublime. That said,
the thing I love most is how Karen makes it all feel doable, and
done beautifully, without a lot of fuss. Her menus are inspiring,
the recipes accessible, seasonal, and crowd-pleasing—now it’s time
to daydream about the guest list.”
—Heidi Swanson, author of Super Natural Every Day
“Sunday Suppers is a beautiful meditation on the satisfaction of
gathering—good food, friends and family, community—and sharing in
the powerful experience of cooking and eating together.”
—Melissa Hamilton and Christopher Hirsheimer, authors of Canal
House Cooking
“Mordechai offers a chic and stylish cookbook of 100 recipes with a
focus on get-togethers and intimate gatherings. Mordechai’s style
is casual, simple yet sophisticated... Complete soup-to-nuts,
predesigned menus inspire a breakfast-in-bed menu of rich cream
biscuits, perfect scrambled eggs, and fresh greens or a hearty
winter brunch of homemade bagels, tea and ginger-cured sea bass,
warm citrus salad, and fig tart with honey... Mordechai’s
light-filled photographs mirror her calm, peaceful mood as well as
her belief in a slow-paced approach to sharing food with friends
and family through recipes that are informal, fun, and consistently
elegant.”
