About the Author
Edith Ferns is not a celebrated chef, food columnist, or cookery teacher. She has spent 25 years in a fast paced corporate job in Sydney. Far from the kitchen all day, and then organising food at home nearly every day's end, meant no time for experimenting with complex culinary challenges. Not even enough time to read the glamorous cook books on the coffee table. So the focus was on pulling up her sleeves, adopting and adapting recipes, then learning them by heart. Options evolved too, when ingredients ran out, and the new ideas became a lot of different dishes. Inspiration for Let's Cook and Kiss came from friends who had enjoyed her special quick cooking style when they dropped by unexpectedly. Having written training and motivation guides for an international staff recruitment company, her idea was to create a user-friendly cookery guide that would enthuse cooks with success in the kitchen. The book got exceptional media coverage and she turned up the heat - suddenly it was cooking for magazine photo shoots, food demonstrations, radio and TV, talks, and wine society lunches. Let's Cook & Kiss was a sell out. Now Byron Bay on the northeast coast is home to Edith, with husband Tom and their family. In this lush countryside, fresh produce abounds and relaxed lazy lunches are the way to go. She is still often asked for recipes and copies of that book, so now it is relaunching as a smart paperback. Here's to cooking and kissing and having fun in the kitchen.
