'One of the best food writers alive' Simon Schama The New York Times

Exploring the intersection of finance and global justice, this book challenges traditional theories that advocate for only modest reforms in international institutions. It questions the underlying assumptions about financial distribution and argues for a more equitable allocation of resources as a means to promote global justice. By examining these critical concepts, the author offers a fresh perspective on the complexities of achieving a just world.

A loaf of bread means different things to different people. It's at once the centrepiece of the family table, it's the source of the demon gluten, the reassuring heft of an artisan sourdough, or the fluffy comfort of a white sandwich loaf – it's the best thing since... well, sliced bread. This is NOT a book about how to make bread. No kneading, no rising, no baking. Loaf Story is a food book about bread – not just the role it plays in people's lives all over the world, but how it has been adapted and used in so many dishes. It is food of poverty and yet now we routinely pay big money for an artisanal loaf. Why does it have such a hold on us? From the British and American white sliced loaf to the French baguette, Scandinavian rye, and the uber-trendy Japanese katsu sando, the cultural significance of the loaf is manifold. With recipes for 60 dishes that can be made on bread, in bread and with bread, including a look at the myriad uses for breadcrumbs, croutons, and hollowed-out loaves, as well as the hallowed doorstep sandwich and a classic BLT, Loaf Story is a heart-warming celebration of the staff of life.

Jeden Tag nehmen wir sie in die Hand und arbeiten mit ihnen. Wir widmen ihnen Zeit, schleifen sie und bewahren sie in speziellen Blöcken oder Kästen auf. Doch ein Messer ist noch weit mehr als ein funktionales Werkzeug: Es ist der perfekte Ausdruck einer Form, die ihrer Funktion folgt, und jedes einzelne birgt eine spannende Geschichte. Im Austausch mit Messerschmieden, Küchenchefs und Sammlern erkundet der Foodjournalist Tim Hayward die Welt der Messer: ihr Design, ihre Fertigung und Bedeutung in den verschiedenen Küchen und Kulturen der Welt. Über vierzig verschiedene Messerarten stellt Hayward im Detail vor – von deutschen Edelstahlklingen über das chinesische Chai Dao hin zum japanischen Santoku aus Damaszener Stahl. Ergänzt werden diese Porträts durch praktische Tipps zur Messerpflege sowie zu Halte-, Schneide- und Schleiftechniken. - Eine Liebeserklärung an das Messer - Mit Tipps zu Halte- und Schneidetechniken sowie zum Pflegen, Schärfen und Lagern von Messern - »Das Küchenmesser ist der beste Freund des Kochs und sein wichtigstes Werkzeug.« Len Deighton
