From Scratch is a delightful compilation of recipes and a straightforward guide to creating your own food and essentials, beginning from the very basics. If you seek a deeper connection with your food, then this book is undoubtedly for you. With over 200 straightforward recipes encompassing a wide range of items from basic pantry staples and essential dairy products to delectable cakes, mouthwatering dips, crackers, ferments, and drinks, you'll gain the confidence to bid farewell to industrialized packaged goods. Author Fiona Weir Walmsley beautifully portrays the life (and work) at Buena Vista Farm in Gerringong, NSW, Australia, as well as the sheer joy of creating, sharing, and savoring things "from scratch, no matter how busy you are." And, indulging in your own homemade mayonnaise, yogurt, kimchi, muesli bars, mustard, ice cream, chai tea, bacon jam, chewy caramel, or lemon slice (the list goes on!) might be precisely what you need to find your happy place.

From Scratch is a culinary masterpiece that revolves around the concept of kitchen time being enjoyable, instructions devoid of preachiness, and the profound satisfaction of being able to produce everything yourself, whenever the urge strikes (or when you run out of baking powder).

The book is adorned with stunning images that evoke a sense of warmth and nostalgia, transporting you to the heart of the kitchen. It is a celebration of the art of cooking and the joy of nurturing oneself and others through the creation of delicious and nourishing meals.

In essence, From Scratch is a must-have for anyone who desires a deeper connection with their food, a passion for cooking, and a desire to explore the world of homemade goodness. It is a testament to the power of simplicity, the beauty of homemade ingredients, and the immense satisfaction that comes from nurturing oneself and others through the art of cooking.
