Book description
Abundance is a record of one man's year living on the south-west coast of England as he quietly contemplates life, nature and his next meal.With his days distracted by the ping of communication and the tug of commitments, Mark Diacono wondered how he might better savour this one precious life. He started to write and photograph each week, hoping that this simple commitment might sharpen his appreciation of the magic in the everyday and his time spent in the kitchen. It reminds us that abundance comes in many forms - the passing of the seasons, our connection to the world around us, and the wealth that a garden, a town and its surrounding landscapes offers.With over 80 recipes like Early summer shakshuka, Salsify and radicchio gratin, Onion seed and oregano flower focaccia, Fig leaf and olive oil ice cream, and a Mulberry martini, there are dishes to inspire and satisfy every week as the year unfolds before you.
