'Abi Aspen Glencross and Sadhbh Moore have created a remarkable book. Unlike most kitchen books which are of the goddess or culture genius variety, this most remarkable book is a journey for people coming fresh to the ideas of sustainability and indeed new cooking. This guide is not patronising or difficult, nor judgemental about failure but life affirming in its joy at the experiment. In short this book is the Mrs Beaton of the modern age. I can clearly imagine her beaming down seeing Abi and Sadhbh taking a generation in hand to get a form of agency in their lives, just as Isabella Beaton herself did in 1861. The book is a delight.'--Sir Tim Smit KBE, co-founder of the Eden Project 'Such a beautiful, delicious, celebratory way of solving the worlds toughest problems.'--Tristram Stuart, Award-winning author and campaigner
