Publisher's Synopsis
A new approach to healthy, light and luscious cooking
Love making in the kitchen encourages you to develop your own style and become more creative with your home cooking. It takes you from morning to night...and from basics through to catering a multi-course dinner. It is a fantastic foundation for exploring and learning more about using alternative ingredients and experimenting with your own variations. Love Making in the Kitchen is particularly suited to people with limited dietary options or those wanting to improve their health. Think of it as a starting point and inspiration for nutritious, delicious alternatives and new, creative ideas.Cooking started out as a necessity, which later developed into a curiosity, and now has become a passion. Author, Karen Chen, has been working her way to wellness with a diabetic condition for many years without medication but with medical supervision. Her chosen path is based on her belief of taking personal responsibility for one's self, and especially one's health.With Karen's early beginnings of cooking, she set out to explore and find options as at the time there were very few health food alternatives. Through many years of personal experience and research, Karen has built up a repertoire of recipes, and with a desire and joy to share with others she pursued the opportunity to develop her first cookery book, Love Making In The Kitchen. She has collaborated with brands such as Simone Perele who distributed books to their nationwide stores.She loves to create dishes using natural alternative ingredients, and nature is an ever-present inspiration. Karen's mission now is to reawaken people's senses and creativity; and to find love and connection in the kitchen using simple, nourishing food in sustainable ways.Praise for Love Making in the Kitchen Karen considers taste and the use of our senses in her recipes rather like a food artist. Creativity is one of her essential ingredients. Karen's style is also about the heart. Her passion and enthusiasm for nutrition and a healthy life is infectious. There is no better teacher than the one who has successfully been through their own healing journey. I happily recommend this book to anyone seeking health enhancement through delicious, natural, health promoting food. - Dr Catherine J Fyans Karen's beautiful, healthy recipes are bursting with flavour, are nutritionally dense, and incorporate a diverse range of health supportive ingredients.
