In fact, it's the chief pleasure of cooking.  It's about re-uniting yourself with a sense of pleasure in the kitchen, rediscovering that 'slow' or 'time-taken' doesn't mean difficult.  This is a hugely underrated pleasure in its own right  -  as can be the planning, shopping, reading of cookery books or recipes online, deliberating, or telephoning a friend for a recipe.  Good Tempered Food also shows how to plan in advance and half-prepare a dish a day or even a week before.  For example, a dish like risotto can be half-cooked before time, the simplest of meat sauces can be converted from lasagna to cottage pie, hot and cold puddings can be pre-cooked and finished at the last minute.  The book is full of dishes that will give you pleasure to cook  -  roasted baby tomatoes mixed with baby broad beans, a handful of chives, mint, chervil and thyme, some lemon zest and cheese thrown onto some pasta of a fat piece of belly of port idling in the oven for several hours, steeped in molasses, sweet brown sugar and star anise.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rarewaves","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40945980014689,"sku":"9781908337191","price":8.8,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0092\/7504\/8033\/files\/orig_27705608.jpg?v=1721999964","url":"https:\/\/www.rarewaves.com\/products\/9781908337191-good-tempered-food","provider":"Rarewaves.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
