Star Cooks is a brilliant new charity cookbook for kids, packed full of healthy recipes from world-class chefs including Jamie Oliver, Gordon Ramsay, Delia Smith, Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall and Jean-Christophe Novelli.
From the team, headed up by Victoria Chilcott, that brought you celebrity storybook Stars at Bedtime (2004) launched by the Chancellor Gordon Brown and wife Sarah at No. 11 Downing Street, Star Cooks is in aid of the national food charity FareShare which does fantastic work in communities throughout the UK providing training and support and redistributing unsold food to people who really need it.
Top chefs have donated their favourite recipes including John Burton Race’s Blueberry Muffins, a favourite with his wife Kim; Marcus Wareing’s Red Pepper and Chickpea Hummus, and Heston Blumenthal’s “Quaking Puddingâ€, based on an original medieval recipe and still a popular dish in his pub, The Hind’s Head.
Each chef gives their top tips for each recipe, plus there are sections on Kitchen Rules, how to know what foods are healthy and how to incorporate ‘5 a day’ into your diet. See overleaf for a full list of recipes featured…
About FareShare
Ever wondered what happens to food that doesn’t sell at the supermarket? Unsold sandwiches from sandwich shops? Apples from the market that have gone uneaten? Even an airline’s unused, unopened bottles of water?
The food is within its use-by-date, and TONNES of it would go to waste every day if it wasn’t for FareShare. Food that would often end up in landfill sites, littering the country, is instead taken from supermarkets such as Sainsbury’s and Marks & Spencer in FareShare vans, by FareShare volunteers, and given to people who need it.
Recipients include homeless people in shelters, disadvantaged children in breakfast clubs, elderly people in day centres, and vulnerable people who have been socially excluded.
