With the concept of home comes questions of ancestry, identity and belonging, and the understanding that there is no one fixed idea of what or where home is. In No Place Like Home, Charlene White boldly shares her own story and understanding of home as a Jamaican Londoner exploring all the smells, memories and voices from her childhood.

Food is a love language for me, and was also a way for me to prove my worth—to make up for a long held self-perception that I alone was not enough, that I needed to serve and cook to be worthy of my place and approval. I would often spend all day in the kitchen preparing decadent meals to show people that I care and prove myself worthy of their affections, sometimes people I barely knew or even liked. In the past few months of Sydney's second lockdown, I have found myself making beautiful dishes that I'd never imagined cooking for one person… me.

For Karen Blixen var gastronomi en kunst på lige fod med litteratur, musik og maleri. Derfor gik hun til gastronomien med dannelse, selvbevidsthed, passion, ufravigelige kvalitetskrav og høje forventninger. Med en ukuelig vilje lykkedes det Blixen at stable et køkken op på farmen i Afrika. Hendes madlavning gik fra et absolut nulpunkt hvad angik håndelag, udstyr og råvarer og endte med at blive kaldt det afrikanske kontinents svar på Ritz. Da hun blev forfatter lagde hun kogekunsten på hylden - i hvert fald den udførende del.

"Al termine della prima settimana, seicento assaggi avevano già azzerato ogni mia volontà di capirci ancora qualcosa. In quattro, cinque giorni mi spazzolavo la storia del Barolo o dell'Amarone, pretendendo anche di giudicarla. Era come stilare la classifica dei migliori film della stagione, fermandosi ai titoli di testa. Il mio spettacolo non andava mai oltre l'unghia del bicchiere. E seduti di fronte a me, non vedevo più colleghi e collaboratori, ma polli da batteria, costretti a beccare senza sosta." Con tono schietto e pungente, Tiziano Gaia ci conduce nel mondo dei vini.
