This month's book is 'Nistisima' by Georgina Hayden:

"'Nistisima' means fasting food – food eaten during Lent and other times of fasting observed by those of Orthodox faith. Mostly this involves giving up meat and dairy and instead using vegetables, pulses and grains to create easy, delicious dishes that all just happen to be vegan.

In this book, Georgina draws on the history and culture around nistisimo cooking in the Mediterranean, Middle East and Eastern Europe to share the simple, nutritious and flavour-packed recipes at the heart of the practice, including:

Salatet malfouf cabbage slaw
Briam ('Greek ratatouille')
Pumpkin, raisin and harissa pie
Kibbet el raheb, 'monks' soup'
Jewelled lentil moutzentra
Rizogalo rose rice pudding with roasted strawberries
Moustokouloura spiced grape, honey and chocolate biscuits

Whether you're vegan, vegetarian, or simply want to eat more plant-based food, 'Nistisima' offers you tried and tested recipes that celebrate the very best of this tradition – all bursting with flavour and all surprisingly vegan."

So, how does a cookbook club work??? This ticket secures your spot at the August event. Upon purchasing your ticket I will email you a spreadsheet where you are able to list what recipe you will be cooking. I will also add you to a WhatsApp group chat so you can discuss with other attendees prior to the event! On the day you bring your cooked recipe from 'Nistisima' and we all get to share what we've made together! This will be a very small, casual event. There is absolutely no pressure to make a culinary masterpiece, it's just a fun way to get a bit more out of a cookbook and meet a bunch of likeminded people :-)
