Summary

Kitchen Cleaning Tips redefines household hygiene by merging food safety science with practical cleaning strategies, showing how a clean kitchen directly impacts family health. The book’s eye-opening premise—like revealing that kitchen sponges often host more bacteria than toilet seats—sets the stage for its evidence-based approach. It tackles hidden dangers, from cross-contamination risks on cutting boards to biofilm buildup in sink drains, while emphasizing that 60% of foodborne illnesses originate in home kitchens. By framing cleaning as both a culinary skill and a public health measure, it connects historical outbreaks (like early 20th-century typhoid cases) to modern-day stakes, making microbiology relatable through everyday examples.

 
Structured across 12 chapters, the guide progresses from basic concepts—identifying high-risk zones—to advanced techniques, such as balancing disinfectant pH or creating tailored cleaning schedules. Its standout Zone Defense system categorizes kitchens into risk-based areas, recommending daily disinfection for raw meat prep surfaces versus quarterly attention for closed cabinets. The book blends USDA guidelines with cross-cultural insights, like how pre-refrigeration societies prevented spoilage, offering time-saving routines like the 5-Minute Nightly Reset. Checklists and flowcharts help readers adapt strategies to their lifestyles, whether managing allergies or debating eco-friendly cleaners.

 
What sets this book apart is its pragmatic tone: it replaces overwhelm with actionable steps, using peer-reviewed data without sacrificing readability. By transforming microbial realities into manageable habits, it empowers cooks and health-conscious households to turn cleaning from a chore into a safeguard—one spotless countertop at a time.

    Enjoy this collection of laksa and other comforting noodle bowl recipes and get to know this popular south-east Asian dish in all its guises.

Laksa is a delicious noodle soup consisting of thick noodles, swimming in a warming broth, packed full of fresh and fragrant ingredients with added toppings to add vibrant colour and interesting texture. For fans of spicy yet light-to-eat and reviving dishes, laksa really hits the spot.

The origins of this often fiery dish are unclear, but it hails from Peranakan culture, which is based in southeast Asia and is a combination of Chinese, Malay and Indonesian influences. Which is why you can find anything from mild 'Chinese' type curries to sour tamarind varieties in these recipes.

Curry laksa is the most often referred to type of noodle soup and is made from a coconut milk and curry paste base. Creamy, often fiery, intense flavours, with lashings of fresh chilli. Whereas Assam laksa is a much lighter version, made with a fragrant broth at its heart, full of tamarind and ginger flavours. Penang laksa is another version made with a tangy, sour fish broth.

Slurp your way through this fantastic collection of recipes for laksa and other Asian-inspired noodle bowl recipes and find a dish to satisfy all of your cravings.

    London Feeds Itself

    London is often called the best place in the world to eat – a city where a new landmark restaurant opens each day, where vertiginous towers, sprawling food halls and central neighbourhoods contain the cuisines of every country in the world. Yet, this London is not where Londoners usually eat. There is another version of London that exists in its marginal spaces, where food culture flourishes in parks and allotments, in warehouses and industrial estates, along rivers and A-roads, in baths and in libraries. A city where Londoners eat, sell, produce and distribute food every day without fanfare, where its food culture weaves in and out of daily urban existence.


In a city of rising rents, of gentrification, and displacement, this new and updated edition of London Feeds Itself, edited by the food writer and editor of Vittles, Jonathan Nunn, shows that the true centres of London food culture can be found in ever more creative uses of space, eked out by the people who make up the city. Its chapters explore the charged intersections between food and modern London's varied urban conditions, from markets and railway arches to places of worship to community centres. 26 essays about 26 different buildings, structures and public amenities in which London's vernacular food culture can be found, seen through the eyes of writers, architects, journalists and politicians – all accompanied by over 125 guides to some of the city's best vernacular restaurants across all 33 London boroughs.
