COOK BOOK CLUB - JUNE - OSTRO - JULIA OSTRO
Event description
Much like novels and other non-fiction books, cookbooks hold a very special place in the hearts of readers. For many, cookbooks are the first step in learning how to cook for yourself and loved ones. Cookbooks hold your hand as you work your way through a mid-week dinner or slow cooked Sunday lunches. They hold the recipes that are reserved and prepared for special occasions, for when you need to switch off or feel happy or sad. The recipes in cookbooks literally nourish you inside and out. As they equally nourish your body and mind, the nourishment extends to those those around you, bringing together people around a table, away from busy lives and devices into a world of flavour, conversation and connection.
Our book for June is from a well known Melbourne local JULIA OSTRO. Julia started her blog in 2014 of which Sophie and many others followed religiously, the blog turned into a physical book three years later. Ostro took the country by storm encouraging us to slow down and cook very simple and hearty recipes. This book quickly became a staple in so many homes which is why we have chosen it as our book for the month.
As usual join us for a three course meal cooked by us for you from the cook book. We will chat about all the reasons why we love the book with new friends and fellow cook book lovers!
