Gizzi's Healthy Appetite: Food to nourish the body and feed the soul

I had a few issues...
Beautiful book; the content is very will written, inventive and what I have cooked has been very tasty and worth the effort. However, (bit of a rant coming) there are too many recipes which require hard to source and/or expensive ingredients. Living in a small town on the South Coast, I don't have access to some of things outside of the online market.In addition to getting the ingredients, the other bug bear is the quantities you are needing. It seems like you either use loads of it making your meal a costly venture, or you use a tiny amount which makes it hardly worth purchasing. Examples being Korean Chili Paste or Burrata cheese to name two off the top of my head.In addition to the ingredients which you have to make, there is a labor of love required for making up the various stocks. I'm sure they taste lovely, but I unfortunately, don't have the time to spend three hours making large quantities to chicken stock, especially when the instructions simply tell you to make sure the water covers the all the ingredients; of which there are several on top of the two chicken carcasses. Even my largest stock pot, gives me 1 litre of stock after I have shoved everything in it called for.If you live in a city, have plenty of free time and you aren't limited on larder space or access to ingredients then I think this would be a fablous book for you.
