"If you’re like me, you’ve been yearning to have friends gather once again for dinner. But as we bring loved ones back to our tables, it can be hard to know what to make. Luckily, Colu Henry’s cookbook is warm and inviting and will inspire the well-seasoned cook (try the “Crispy Fish with Quick Tomatillo and Jalapeño Confit”) and also the neophyte in the kitchen (check out her viral hit “My Cec”). The recipes are full of fresh herbs and staples from the pantry; they’re simple, yet elegant and delicious, and perfect for lingering over a meal."
