Details: Product Description A renowned chef and physician shares her secrets to a healthy life in this cookbook filled with healthy recipes that will fuel and energize your body and mind. "I like to think of a spicebox as the cook's equivalent of a doctor's bag--containing the essential tools to use in the art of cooking. Learning to use spices is the best way to add interest and vibrancy to simple home cooking." —from the Introduction In her first cookbook, chef and physician Linda Shiue puts the phrase "let food be thy medicine" to the test. With 175 vegetarian and pescatarian recipes curated from her own kitchen, Dr. Shiue takes you on a journey of vibrant, fresh flavors through a range of spices from amchar masala to za'atar. With a comprehensive "Healthy Cooking 101" chapter, lists of the healthiest ingredients out there, and tips for prevention, Spicebox Kitchen is a culinary wellness trip you can take in your own kitchen. Review "Dr. Shiue's recipes offer creative twists on traditional favorites, in some cases gently nudging them in more a vegetable-forward direction, which often actually means getting closer to their roots. I'm excited for you to begin cooking the wide-ranging recipes in this book, and I imagine you will learn a lot from the comprehensive and user-friendly overview of spices and healthy staple ingredients that form the basis of the dishes."― from the foreword by Bryant Terry, James Beard Award winner, author of Vegetable Kingdom "Dr. Linda Shiue shows us what a holistic relationship between food and medicine looks, and, most importantly feels, like. Using our spiceboxes as veritable medicine cabinets, Dr. Shiue teaches us that healthy is ours to define and pleasure is vital to our wellbeing."― Julia Turshen, bestselling cookbook author and founder of Equity at the Table (EATT) '"I used to think Linda Shiue loved to cook because it took her away from her work as a doctor; how much more thrilling is it that she brings that love to her work? Through terrific, wide-ranging recipes and a no-stress approach, she shares a world of flavor to nourish your self and your body. And I could live on her spiced coconut rice alone...though I guess no doctor would recommend that."― Francis Lam, host, The Splendid Table "Linda's food is exciting, new and riotously flavorful--it's Ottolenghi meets Bayless with a dash of Ming Tsai. I want to eat the Shakshuka today for breakfast and the Chilaquiles Verde tomorrow. A cookbook of culinary medicine never tasted so good!"― John La Puma, MD, New York Times best-selling author of ChefMD's Big Book of Culinary Medicine "In a time when wellness has taken over food writing as a new guise for the same-old diet culture, Dr. Shiue's science-based take on eating well and healthfully is so refreshing. Even before you get to the wonderful recipes, it's worth reading the intro in which she patiently dismantles myths around nutrition and taste and truly teaches the fundamentals of cooking nearly every ingredient under the sun, with angles fit for both beginners and experts. The book is rich with ideas and, I think, achieves its goal of making good eating unintimidating and accessible to all kinds of eaters."― Soleil Ho, restaurant critic, San Francisco Chronicle "[N]ot only is Linda Shiue a well-regarded medical doctor, she is also a great chef and cooking teacher, who knows how to nurture and heal with good, nutritious food. This cookbook encourages you to explore new spices and cuisines you might not have tried before. As I read through the book, I was so inspired that I immediately made a b-line for my kitchen."― Joanne Weir, chef, PBS cooking show host, cookbook author "Looking to spice up your home cooking? In Spicebox Kitchen Dr. Linda Shiue brings a world of delicious flavors with accessible recipes full of discoveries from far and wide to your table. Linda's easy instruction, creative mind, and sound nutritional sensibilities gained over years as a physician and passion
