At Firefly Books we love food, and we especially love soup!
During the cold winter months there’s nothing more comforting than a steaming hot bowl of soup to warm you from the inside out. This year we’re making the most of soup season with the help of The Seaweed Cookbook authors and founders of Food for Happiness Nicole Pisani and Kate Adams.
These two know great flavours — Nicole was head chef at Yotam Ottolenghi’s London restaurant Nopi and both have written several cookbooks — and their recipe for seaweed broth is the perfect blend of hearty and healthy.
Whether you’re looking for a tasty starter or a nourishing light lunch or dinner, this soup is sure to hit the spot.
Hot drink season is firmly upon us, and with National Hot Chocolate Day coming up on January 31st we thought we’d share our favourite recipe for gourmet hot chocolate.
Courtesy of Simple Things Magazine, our resident experts on the finer things in life, this delicious recipe with warming flavours of cardamom and cinnamon will keep you feeling cozy for the rest of the winter.
Happy first day of winter, fellow foodies! Winter is one of our favourite times of the year and not just because of the holidays.
We love winter because it’s the season of hot drinks and steaming soups, sumptuous stews and rich desserts. It’s a time to indulge in delicacies (oysters, anyone?) and cozycomfort foods and stay warm with a good book.
Our go-to winter menu includes a delicate French soup, a modern twist on a classic Greek Christmas lunch, and a tea-infused chocolate dessert that will have you reaching for seconds.
