A World of Flavour

Inspire children to read, learn, and cook their way around the world with this vibrant collection of authentic recipes and fascinating food facts

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

This innovative cookbook invites children to explore more than forty countries through the universal language of food. Featuring fun facts and fascinating information, it celebrates unique ingredients and culinary customs across all five continents. It includes authentic, kid-friendly recipes ranging from Vietnamese pho and Mexican salsa verde cruda to Italian focaccia and Nigerian jollof rice.

Each entry includes a recipe with simple, step-by-step instructions and lively illustrations of the finished dish. Accessible to all skill levels, the book includes a beginner-friendly section teaching key kitchen vocabulary and skills. There are plenty of recipes made in under thirty minutes, as well as more hands-on projects to excite ambitious young chefs.

Peppered throughout are pages dedicated to widely beloved foods such as dumplings, rice, and frozen desserts, revealing ingredients and dishes we share around the world and the unique ways they are enjoyed by children everywhere.

Through delicious recipes, fascinating facts, and irresistible illustrations, A World of Flavour is so much more than a cookbook: it's a mouth-watering road trip for the mind and the taste buds, teaching curious kids about the many ways cultures and cuisines are unique – and how much they have in common.
