FUSAO: Untraditional recipes inspired by Brasil - Ixta BelfrageBrighten up your meal times with the flavours of Brazil.Bestselling author, Ixta Belfrage has made a name for herself as one of the most exciting young talents in the food industry and in FUSÃO (translating to fusion in Portuguese), she brings all her signature creativity and flair to the food of her mother’s homeland.With recipes such as Moqueca fish burgers, Duck in golden tomato broth and Papaya & chocolate cake with citrus honey glaze, Ixta’s recipes offer up fresh takes on Brazilian dishes and ingredients, along with explanations and substitutions for any hard-to-find ingredients. With stunning photography from Brazil and personal stories intertwined with vibrant recipes, this is food to share, excite and inspire. Review Ixta Belfrage’s focus on the Brazilian food of her heritage bears the bold stamp of her characteristic, rambunctious creativity, espousing a jubilant fusion that’s both coherent and convincing, but above all delicious. -- Nigella LawsonI love how Ixta’s food takes you on a journey of discovery into the uncharted universe of fusion flavours - an experience we should all, and absolutely must, embrace. -- Sami TamimiThere is this thing – a style, a flavour, a hue – which is so unmistakably Ixta and so downright delicious. Her kind of creativity is both a one-off and, at the same time, deeply grounded in the cultures that produced her. Not many cooks can come up with this kind of magic with such incredible flair. -- Yotam Ottolenghi About the Author Ixta’s style of cooking draws inspiration from three countries she grew up travelling to, eating in and obsessing over. Brazil (where her mum is from), Italy (where she lived as a child) and Mexico (where her granddad lived). She began her culinary career at Ottolenghi's NOPI restaurant, before moving to the Test Kitchen, where she worked for Yotam Ottolenghi for five years, contributing to his columns in the Guardian and The New York Times. Ixta was Yotam's co-author on bestselling Flavour (2020) before publishing her first solo cookbook: MEZCLA (2022), which was nominated for 'best debut cookbook' at the Fortnum & Mason Awards and 'best international cookbook' at the James Beard Awards. MEZCLA was named one of the best cookbooks of 2022 by The Independent, The Times, Bon Appetit, Amazon, Spectator and Squaremeal. In 2021 and 2022 Ixta was named ‘one of the most influential women in food’ by Code Hospitality. Ixta is a contributing editor at Elle Magazine and has also written for The Guardian, Suitcase Magazine and Pit Magazine.
