Join Margaret Feinberg, one of America's most beloved teachers and writers, as she sets out on a remarkable journey to unearth God's perspective on food. What you discover will forever change the way you read the Bible--and approach every meal. This groundbreaking book provides a culinary exploration of Scripture.

With each stop, Margaret asks, "How do you read these Scriptures, not as theologians, but in light of what you do every day?" Taste and See teaches us that: As we break bread, we find the satisfaction of our deepest hungers in the community our souls crave As we share our lives, we taste and see God's fruitfulness When we're tempted to lose heart--and we all will be--we find courage in listening to and participating in stories of God's rescuing ways In the midst of a busy life, we can all create space to taste and see God's goodness Taste and See is a delicious read that includes dozens of recipes for those who, like Margaret, believe some of life's richest moments are spent savoring a meal with those you love.

Named a Best Bread Cookbook by Food & Wine Jim Lahey returns with a 15th-anniversary edition of his classic cookbook—featuring five unmissable new recipes. The secret to acclaimed baker Jim Lahey’s bread is slow-rise fermentation. As he revealed in 2009 with the publication of his now-classic cookbook My Bread, the amount of labor you put in totals five minutes: mix water, flour, yeast, and salt, and then let time work its magic, no kneading necessary. Whether preparing Lahey’s basic loaf or a variation—a peanut butter and jelly bread, a pecorino cheese loaf, pancetta rolls, a classic Italian baguette—the process couldn’t be more simple, or the results more inspiring. In the fifteen years since My Bread’s publication, the no-knead bread technique has remained as life-changing as ever. Now, Lahey revisits his beloved cookbook and adds five never-before-published recipes, including a pistachio-goji bread and a foolproof way of making Panko breadcrumbs at home. Repackaged for a new generation, the 15th-anniversary edition of My Bread is as timely as ever, and will bring good bread making back into our lives—with minimal work.
