PERHAPS A GIFT VOUCHER FOR MUM?: MOTHER'S DAY
Richard Horsey grew up in the sleepy English seaside town of Lyme Regis. He has worked for the United Nations fighting forced labour, as a foreign-exchange trader in Hong Kong and as an itinerant dishwasher. He has a doctorate in cognitive science and is an expert on the politics of Myanmar. He lives in Yangon. Tim Wharton has been a singer-songwriter and recording artist, a butcher's boy, a marquee-erector, an English teacher, and currently works as a linguist at the University of Brighton. He is an accomplished cook, and as well as his academic work, has published on food culture and recipe writing.
'With their book Ugly Food, Horsey and Wharton have become cheerleaders for those vegetables, animal parts and fish species deemed so unattractive that they go to waste ... it includes tricks you need to prepare undervalued ingredients with ease. Even chicken feet or pig's cheeks suddenly look a whole lot more appetising' - The Observer Magazine
