London Book Publisher is delighted to announce the highly-anticipated release of Recipes with a Story – ChefDeik, a unique cookbook that stands out from the rest. Penned by renowned food writer and blogger Emilio Deik, also known as ChefDeik, this masterpiece seamlessly combines carefully tested recipes with captivating stories behind them, all brought to life through stunning hand-painted botanical illustrations.
A Project Four Years in the Making
This project has been in the works for over four years, and it’s not just because of the recipes. The stunning artwork that accompanies each dish has played a significant role in the lengthy process. With over 80 dishes featured in the book, each one comes with its own unique story and a meticulously painted illustration. Some of these illustrations took over eight weeks to create, resulting in a cookbook that is not only a feast for the taste buds but also for the eyes.
More Than Just Recipes
Recipes with a Story is built upon three essential pillars:
1. Delicious recipes that have been carefully tested and written with clarity for home cooks.
2. Stories with flavor that provide cultural histories and humorous anecdotes to enrich each dish.
3. Botanical-style illustrations that replace conventional food photography with artwork that captures the essence of each recipe.
The book also introduces a revolutionary recipe-building matrix system that empowers readers to create endless variations of classic dishes such as quiche, risotto, pizza, and sandwiches with ease and confidence.
Why It Matters
In a world where quick food videos and fleeting trends dominate, Recipes with a Story brings back the depth of culinary heritage. It delves into identity, cultural memory, and the traditions that shape our cooking today. Early readers and local chefs have praised the book for its authenticity, heartfelt tone, and artistic beauty.
