| The Observer Food Monthly has recently published its list of the 50 Best Cookbooks Ever - from 1570 to the present day. The OFM team of judges, which includes Raymond Blanc, Prue Leith and other luminaries of the food world, has placed
A Platter of Figs and Other Recipes by David Tanis (Artisan, £25) in seventh place. This book shows readers how to slow down, pay attention, and give ingredients their due. Worlds away from showy personalities and chefs who preach fussy techniques, Tanis serves up charming, unassuming meals for friends and family. The placing of his book at such a high place on the list is a great accolade for a writer whose message is that the kitchen is a place of joy.
