“Delightful . . . written by a woman who values food, family and
friends.” —Shelf Awareness
“Jam Today, whose title is culled from a line in one of Lewis
Carroll’s Alice in Wonderland books, isn’t so much a cookbook as it
is ruminations on food preparation and living right.” —Cascadia
Weekly
“Tod Davies takes a physicist's approach to social change . . .
like the minds behind a particle accelerator, her primary goal is
to cause collisions.” —Portland Mercury
“Davies’s creative joy in food and the world around her is
infectious.” —Bookslut
“Jam Today is just my kind of book—one of those rare trackings of
the healthy human animal rustling about the kitchen then settling
in at the table. In addition to some great meals made to satisfy
desires, needs, whims or simply to make use of what’s at hand, Jam
Today is a complete pleasure to read.”—DEBORAH MADISON , author of
Vegetarian Cooking for Everyone and Vegetable Literacy
“The spirit of M.F.K. Fisher surely hovers over this book, amused
and beguiled by a cook whose prose has the same artful composure,
and whose cooking possesses a similar innate sense of style. I
believe that good cooks are born, not made—but steep your culinary
self long enough in the pages of Jam Today and it might just be
born again.” —JOHN THORNE, author of Serious Pig: An American Cook
in Search of His Roots and Mouth Wide Open: A Cook and His
Appetite
