Inspired by ethically sourced, sustainable ingredients available from your local suppliers, Vanessa shows how what you cook can make a real difference to those who produce it and to the environment.
Recipes are simple, unfussy and easy to cook at home - making everyday classics ethical and sustainable - with chapters focusing on Basics, Getting Ahead in the Kitchen, Simple Suppers, Feeding Children, Leisurely Weekend Food and Special Occasions (our wonderful Essex quinoa even gets a mention). Let Vanessa inspire you to adapt the way you cook and change the world one delicious bite at a time, here's what she has to say about her motivation for writing the book;
"Simply put I believe that our health and the health of the earth is ultimately intertwined, and eating is not just about fashion, or trends or the latest fad diet, it is about nourishing ourselves and the planet, and yet eating is also a political act. This book shows us how we can easily use the opportunity of eating our everyday food as a means to change the world literally one bite at a time, by sourcing our food with thought, and standing up for the farmers, the food producers, and the people who are producing our food in the right way."
Vanessa Kimbell is a fourth generation baker and chef, she founded and teaches at The Sourdough School in Northamptonshire and is a regular contributor to the Food Programme on BBC Radio 4

14 grains, seeds, pulses and flowers reflecting the diversity of crop and wild plants one might find in and by a field. This is a freshly milled flour, ready to use in your bread and bakes. Botanical Blend #2 is also available as a grist of whole grains &c for home milling. |
Created by Vanessa Kimbell of the Sourdough School and blended here at the Bean Store from grains and seeds grown by UK farmers, this botanical base mix is designed for use in sweet and savoury sourdough baking.
Originally available as a blend of whole grains, seeds and flowers for home milling, Botanical Blend No, 2 is now available as flour, fresh from the Hodmedod mill.
Botanical Blend No. 2 is the first of several blends we plan to offer, all are the culmination of years of research by Vanessa into the workings of the gut microbiome, the process of wild yeast fermentation and the art of baking for flavour and nutrition. They reflect the diversity we need to see in fields and in our diets.
Any home baker can mill and add the blend to their bakes, bringing extra fragrance, flavour and nutrition. However, the blend is best used in conjunction with The Sourdough School: Sweet Baking which can be bought separately (with a £5 Hodmedod voucher) or with the blend (without a Hodmedod voucher, but with a £6 discount).
The Sourdough School: Botanical Blends information sheet is available as a free pdf download.
This mix has been created for home baking. Use as plain wholemeal flour for greater diversity and breadth of flavour in your baking.
