HUNGRY FOR COMFORT

From one of Canada's most-praised food writers, a collection of comfort food recipes that's as inviting as freshly baked bread

Raised on a farm and taught to cook by her grandmother and mother, Rose Murray is the perfect person to teach us how to cook comfort food—the delicious, dependable recipes that remind us of family and simpler times.

Spiced with reminiscences and culinary wisdom, Hungry for Comfort invites readers into Rose’s cozy kitchen to listen and learn. With sections devoted to soups, casseroles, stews, roasts, menus for family celebrations and casual entertaining, coupled with Rose’s stories about the joys of cooking and the methods and secrets of her grandmother and mother, Hungry for Comfort feeds both body and soul.

"Rose Murray knows about real food. She's a wonderful cook and comfort food expert. [She] also knows that today we...want recipes that are faster, easier and healthier, with less fat, more vegetables and a taste of the exotic along with the earthy."
—Carol Ferguson, Homemaker's magazine

"It's all too easy to lose your head over the new, the hot, the current and overlook writers with more mileage on their stoves. I'm a particular fan of Canada's Rose Murray..."
—Angela Murrills, Georgia Strait
