Cocina Neuva is author and chef Jane Lawson’s personal celebration of Spain’s growing reputation as the new centre of innovative cuisine in Europe. During a recent trip, Lawson’s gastronomic love affair with Spain was ignited as she experienced incredible, artistic, technically perfect, fascinating dishes that tasted of focused raw passion. They were, she insists, amongst the best she had ever tasted.
Jane Lawson Lawson has artfully reinvented traditional dishes with a modern flair — keeping alive the colours, flavours and textures of the Spanish classics. Each chapter has been inspired by the passion and heat of the new Spanish kitchen and the way the Spaniards really like to eat. Tasca (Tapas - small plates to share); Cocina (main meals) and Postres (desserts).
Lawson’s enthusiasm for Spanish cooking is evident and contagious. The evocative photography will inspire creatvity and a shared love for what some have termed as the new ‘foodie nirvana’. Her recipes will help to create a vibrant, expressive kitchen redolent of a Madrid tapas bar.
The flavours of the new Spanish kitchen will delight those who have a flair for Spanish cuisine and those who are yet to try.
