Rosemary, Sea Salt & Sesame Popcorn

Rosemary, sea salt & sesame popcorn is the perfect power snack. With a hint of fresh herby rosemary flavour, both my children loved the popcorn especially while we were enjoying our movie night. This is super tasty and flavoursome and I was surprised that both my children loved it as much as they did because of the herby flavour!

Italian Tuscan Fish Soup

Want to learn how to cook authentic Italian gluten-free or Paleo diet? Then you should take a look at this Paleo Italian cookbook by Cindy Barbieri! Her book contains a great collection of her family recipes from appetizers to brunch, from Tuscan favourites to Seafood main courses and many more delicious recipes! I am totally spoilt for choice and I want to cook every recipe!

Cindy took 4 years to write this book and she has taken the dishes her Nana made for her family and transformed her recipes to fit a Paleo lifestyle. I’ve always thought that Italian staples are pasta, bread and pizza. So it is very interesting to know recipes for a Paleo diet!

Kai Yang Thai Grilled Chicken

My husband and I enjoy eating Thai food but I have yet to learn how to cook it from scratch. Normally, I use ready-made packet sauces. Thai food is famous for its balance of sweet, sour, salty and hot flavours. One of my favourite dishes is Tom Yum soup. It is a clear soup base and very spicy! I love the hit of the spiciness.

Nong’s Thai Kitchen cookbook has 84 classic recipes that are quick, healthy and delicious! It will be available on the 9th June 2015 from Tuttle Publishing. Do look out for the book. It will be available from Amazon too. What I like this cookbook is that the author has explained in detail the various Thai ingredients. I didn’t know that coconut comes in cream and milk and they are totally different ingredients. I always thought they were both the same! In this book, there are recipes from appetizers to soup, noodles to desserts. The Grilled Chicken recipe caught my eye!

According to the author, there are many versions of Thai grilled chicken and this recipe uses coconut milk! Yes, coconut milk to marinate. It sound very intriguing! Here is the recipe.

The Sugar-Free Kitchen Review

The Sugar-Free Kitchen is a simple cookbook with recipes that drives towards eating a cleaner, healthier diet. It offers a range of exciting recipes to help reduce or eliminate sugar from your diet while still being tasty and delicious.

The cookbook is also very informative. It explains how both refined and natural sugar affects the body, how it has snuck into our food, the health benefits of eating more quality protein, wholefoods and good fats and much more.

It has certainly enlightened me. I was always very curious about the alternatives for sugar for diabetics. Both my parents suffered from diabetes which I will likely inherit in future. So I should watch my intake of sugar especially as I love sugary food!

The book will be released on 3rd November 2014 and is published by Parragon Books Ltd. The book is paperback containing about 128 pages. It comes with six chapters: introduction, breakfasts, lunch & snacks, mains, desserts & baking and index. It is easy to navigate through the book for recipe ideas. Each recipe comes with clear instructions, beautiful photos and nutritional information per serving (calories, fat, saturated fat, carbohydrate, sugars, salt, fibre and protein).
