Midnight Chicken by Ella Risbridger

emotional informative inspiring medium-paced

4.0

This is mostly a cookbook so feels a bit weird to review, but Midnight Chicken is also a memoir of using food to connect with yourself again. Risbridger writes about the magic of cooking really well, and I really liked her back-to-basics approach to what you really 'need' in the kitchen. Some of her writing felt a tad twee at times (it felt like I was reading about someone's childhood in the 1950s rather than at the same time as mine) - but mostly it hits perfectly, and I cried reading the afterword.
