Product Description
Amnon guides readers through simple strategies that can be used to make delicious and healthy meals at home. By mindfully combining fresh produce, simple set-asides, and using a little creativity, Amnon argues that any meal can be turned into an occasion.Described 30 years ago (Toronto Star, March 30, 1994) as “philosopher and bon-vivant,” Amnon has engaged—physically and intellectually—with all aspects of food and its consumption, with devotion and reverence more typically associated with religious observance.An entrepreneur and self-employed consultant with considerable discretionary time at his disposal, Amnon has, since the early 80s, spent a significant part of it in food-centric research, travel experiences, and experimentation. He has cooked, and occasionally catered, in places as diverse as Italy, Mexico, Spain, and Belize, always using farm-fresh (or local market) ingredients. In Caledon or Toronto, Amnon has relied almost exclusively on his gardens, using preservation strategies described in the book.GROW Community Food Literacy Centre is a registered charity in Niagara Falls, ON, focused on addressing barriers people face to accessing and benefiting from good, healthy food. As the first food literacy centre in Canada, GROW’s innovative approach to addressing food access, affordability, and food literacy has garnered local, national, and international attention and has received praise from academics, food security experts, and chronic disease specialists.
