Around the Table is a carefully curated collection of Diana Henry’s finest essays, selected from over twenty years of her beloved cookbooks.

From the lively Turkish markets along Edgware Road to a cozy kitchen in rural France,  to the crisp, maple-syrup-scented air of Vermont, Diana has traveled the globe, following her palate wherever it leads.

In these essays, Diana’s words breathe life into ingredients, making them leap off the page.

You’ll savor the contrasting flavors of salty and sweet, buttery and bold black and purple olives. The tart, fragrant zest of Valencia oranges—easy to peel and almost seedless. The simple joy of a perfectly crisp slice of toast.

This vibrant collection of essays celebrates the pleasures of great food, offering a sensory journey that is pure delight.

“Lyrical…radiant…timeless. A dazzling collection.” – Nigel Slater
