If it were possible to sum up the embodiment of privilege in a cookbook... this would be it.
Self indulgent and pretentious. If it were possible to sum up the embodiment of privilege in a cookbook... this would be it. One if the first beliefs the book mentions is the exorbitant amount of greens one must eat to become a sakara-like goddess. The recipes then begin with weird tea- themed potions and fussy bread-y recipes. Here are some ingredients gleaned from the first pages of the recipes: - Tocotrienols - Harissa paste (store- bought. If you don't live in a metropolitan area with supermarkets that carry these. .. you're not invited to this party) - MSM... whatever that it...1 teaspoon of it - camu camu powder - schisandra berry - mucuna pruriens - hulled hemp seeds - chlorella - edible dried rose petals (ok I'm being a jerk here... this once is totally easy) - triphala I haven't even looked at the second half of the book yet. But seriously. This one really narrows the audience to city folk who probably don't work, yet belong in a higher socioeconomic status than 99% of the population. I'll donate this book to my library... if they'll have it. I'll give credit where it's due - the photographs and the authors are beautiful. So if you're into pretty, food- themed coffee table books... this one's for you. Although, some of the food concoctions don't look edible to my philistine palette 😂.
