In Finding Fire, Lennox Hastie, of the acclaimed Sydney restaurant Firedoor, tells the story of how he learnt the language of fire, as well as sharing more than 80 recipes that celebrate the instinctive, focused cooking of ingredients at their simple best.
Alongside Lennox’s journey from the UK to the Basque mountains and ultimately Australia, Finding Fire offers an uncompromising historical, cultural and culinary account of what it means to cook with fire. In a world yearning to re-engage with what makes us human, it reveals how it is possible for all of us to embrace this ancient and revered form of cooking.
