This is the pocket edition of Jenny's now classic 2013 book Pulse. If you've got this far you probably don't need us to tell you that pulses are incredibly economical as well as healthy and that, increasingly, people are looking for new sources of protein as people seek to change their diets for both environmental and economical reasons. This is a truly modern look at preparing under-exploited protein-packed pulse ingredients.
From familiar sounding recipes such as celeriac and Puy lentil remoulade to the unexpected - Adzuki bean ice cream with crystallized ginger - the book covers every aspect of pulse cooking as well as storage, an illustrated guide to varieties and tips on preparation.
Jenny Chandler studied Spanish and Catalan at Bristol and Barcelona Universities. After training at Leith's School of Food and Wine she worked as a chef on a luxury yacht based in the Mediterranean and in Barcelona. Jenny currently runs the Plum Cooking school in Bristol and teaches regularly in London and Bath. Jenny was United Nations Food and Agriculture Organisation Special Ambassador for the International Year of Pulses for Europe!
