Egg and Spoon: An Illustrated Cookbook

Description

A scrumptious collection for anyone who loves good healthy food and an occasional indulgence-after-school snacks, things on sticks, cakes, slices and dinners, a boiled egg to slip into your pocket for later. Many recipes are naturally gluten-free or vegan, all are delicious. Alexandra Tylee is the owner and chef at Pipi Cafe, a little pink house, cottage garden and pizza truck-a place to celebrate eating together and taking pleasure in small things. Sometimes you need a layered cake, a crispy roast chook, a popsicle for breakfast...quite often all you need is an egg and a spoon. Egg and Spoon is for children and adults. Tylee trusts children to choose flavours and handle equipment in this joyful book that will set them on a lifetime love of healthy cooking and eating. Giselle Clarkson's illustrations are scrumptious and subversively playful.

Alexandra Tylee is the owner and chef at Pipi restaurant in Hawke's Bay, New Zealand, author of two cookbooks, and the mother of four sons. If I Was a Banana was her first book for children. Giselle Clarkson is an illustrator and comic artist based in Wellington, New Zealand. Her first book was Secret World of Butterflies with Courtney Sina Meredith, released in 2018.

What I loved about this book was the discarding of hard and fast rules. Cooking is likened to a wonderful journey of discovery; finding what works for you. What an amazing lesson for children to learn! * Kids Book Review *
