Hey readers!

What's boiling in your head today?

Just curious to know if you ever dump into a cooking book (apart recipes books). A chef story or biography? A novel written in a kitchen? A scifi chef story? Do you have any suggestion for the ~food lovers?

Nourishing Traditions is a good one, I think a lot of Bitcoiners will enjoy the first 80 pages where the author explains all the problems with the modern food system.

Kitchen Confidential, by Anthony Bourdain.

Such a great book (and man)! He also wrote a really good little bio of Typhoid Mary, examining her through the lens of being a chef.

I think that anyone who's ever worked in a restaurant kitchen will enjoy this one.

M.F.K. Fisher's The Art of Eating remains a true classic 70 years later. One my favorite food books.

Never heard of it and definitely added to my kindle, thank you 🙏

Enjoy! She basically created the modern field of food writing.

The Big Fat Surprise, by Nina Teicholtz. Mind-blowing. I put some more details on the book here - #320715.
