Paperbacks: Hungry? by Lindsey Bareham
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.The quick-fix cookbook seems to be all the rage just at the moment (River Café, Delia, Leith's School and Nigella have all had a go), but for practicality, erudition and economy you should turn to Lindsey Bareham.
Her recipe for the bayou dish jambalaya is not only foolproof but also explains its Creole etymology ("from jambon, French for 'ham' and 'alaya', rice in an African dialect"). Good on basics, she maintains that her roast chicken "with an impossibly large quantity of onions, some olive oil and salt and pepper" is "sublime". Her directions for consuming "peaches in fizzy white wine" are irresistible: "Look at it. Drink it. Eat the peach."
