Summary

Tenderness is at the heart of why we cook. Slowly allowing flavour to unfold, letting simple ingredients meld into something special is a kind of magical alchemy. So is building something nourishing with minimal effort midweek that still turns out rich and generous. Tender is here to help create just that magic with ease, with over 90 nurturing, comforting recipes, so you can feed your soul while also satisfying hungry friends and family members. The gorgeous, heartfelt and flavour-packed meals in this book run the range from hearty stews to zippy braises and curries, as well as a wide world of soups and ragus -- everything is designed to warm you up and to hold you together, all designed with no need for special equipment -- just a stove or oven will do. Recipes are by style of protein to keep it practical, and ranging from easy weeknight dinners to banquet-worthy centrepieces. Start with a flexible and fool-proof basic braise recipe that you take in any direction you choose, or be led lovingly into the arms of a steak, onion and peppercorn stew with mash, or a French onion fettuccine. Prep ahead with a dal that begins its life in a jar in your pantry, or enliven the whole house with a Thai-style bouillabaisse. This is warm food for cold times -- or any time of year at all. Sometimes we all just need a little tenderness.
