Phaidon - The Family Meal, Home Cooking with Ferran Adrià: 10th Anniversary Edition

A new edition of the iconic chef Ferran Adrià's globally bestselling home-cooking book, published on the 10th anniversary of its first release – his first and only book for home cooks

The Family Meal features a month's worth of three-course menus created for and by Ferran and his team – meals that nourished and energized them for each evening's service. Learn to make the perfect gazpacho, Thai chicken curry or chocolate mousse from the modern master, otherwise known for his ground-breaking avant-garde culinary creations. It's the first – and only – book of everyday recipes by the world's most influential chef, now with a brand-new foreword by Ferran himself.
