Seamus Mullen's Hero Food

The award-winning chef shares seasonal, rustic, and Spanish-inspired recipes featuring 18 heroically health-boosting foods. After being diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis, Seamus Mullen discovered how incorporating eighteen key ingredients into his cooking improved his quality of life. In Hero Food, he shows how to make these key ingredients, or "hero foods," your cooking friends; they can be added to many dishes to enhance health and flavor. Hero Food is divided into four sections, each devoted to a season. Each season is introduced with personal reflections that provide context for Seamus's imaginative recipes. The "heroes" of these recipes are real, elemental foods such as good meat, good birds, eggs, greens, grains, and berries. Foods like these will not only improve your wellbeing, but also infuse your meals with rich and satisfying flavors.
