Book Talk: The Natural Kitchen by sustainability consultant, Zen Buddhist monk, organic gardener and cook, Deborah Eden Tull
Author Deborah Eden Tull will discuss her new book, The Natural Kitchen, published by Process this September. A simple, revolutionary guide to mindful, sustainable food shopping, planning, preparation, cooking, and eating in the city, The Natural Kitchen explores the ways in which the daily choices we make involving food impact both our lives and the world at large.
Drawing on years of experience as an organic gardener and cook, a sustainability coach, and a Zen Buddhist monk, Tull introduces simple but life-changing ways for urbanites to adopt a mindful and sustainable relationship with food—from shopping, menu planning, cooking, growing, and storing food, maintaining the kitchen, and eating out, to community food sharing and tips for parents. Beautifully illustrated, practical and fun, this book is filled with anecdotes and step-by-step instructions to inspire neophytes and experienced homesteaders alike.
