{"product_id":"bestow-within-natural-food-journal","title":"Bestow Within, The Natural Food Journal Volume I | Janine Tait","description":"\u003cp\u003eCalling something a food journal rather than a cookbook is a small distinction that turns out to matter. \u003cstrong\u003eBestow Within\u003c\/strong\u003e reads as a record of how one person came to eat the way she does, with the recipes arriving as part of that story rather than as a list of instructions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJanine Tait is a New Zealand dermo-nutritionist and the founder of Bestow Beauty, and this first volume sets out the thinking behind the whole Bestow range. Her approach centres on simple whole food combinations, prepared with care and eaten seasonally, and she is interested in the relationship between what we eat and how we feel in our own skin. Co-creator Sheryl Nicholson photographed it, and her images do a lot of the work, giving the book a considered, unhurried quality. Recipes run from mineral-rich sushi rolls through to a raw chocolate mousse torte, so it covers everyday eating and occasions alike.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow is this different from Savour?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eSavour is tightly focused on one-dish vegetarian meals. Within is broader and more personal, mixing recipes with the reasoning behind them, and it works well as the entry point to the series. Many people end up with both, since they overlap very little.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs it a New Zealand book?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is, written and produced here, which is part of the appeal. If you like supporting local makers, it sits alongside \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/fluxboutique.co.nz\/products\/the-gut-skin-connection\"\u003eThe Gut-Skin Connection\u003c\/a\u003e from the same authors, and there is more New Zealand work throughout our \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/fluxboutique.co.nz\/collections\/books\"\u003eBooks collection\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt makes a lovely gift for someone rethinking how they eat, a friend who appreciates beautifully produced local books, or anyone already using Bestow products. Birthdays, Mother's Day and Christmas all suit it, and it sits comfortably within our \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/fluxboutique.co.nz\/collections\/gift-ideas-for-the-health-guru\"\u003ewellbeing gift range\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy You'll Love It\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe first volume in the Bestow food journal series\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhole food recipes built on simple, seasonal combinations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWritten by New Zealand dermo-nutritionist Janine Tait\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePhotographed throughout by Sheryl Nicholson\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWritten and produced in New Zealand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow to Use It\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eRead it rather than only cooking from it, at least at first, since the reasoning is half the value. It suits a kitchen shelf or a bedside table equally, and the soft, floral-toned cover sits well against linen, pale timber and cream ceramics. Because it is a journal as much as a recipe collection, it rewards returning to across a year rather than working through in one go.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54110940234046,"sku":null,"price":25.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0374\/0149\/files\/Within.jpg?v=1788260330","url":"https:\/\/fluxboutique.co.nz\/products\/bestow-within-natural-food-journal","provider":"Flux Boutique","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
