Food For Mood – A Cooltan Arts Cookbook Launch With Special Guest Rosemary Shrager

Join CoolTan Arts for the launch of a uniquely creative cookbook, which will inspire you to cook and eat well whatever your mood!

Researched, written and designed by CoolTan Arts’ participants, Food for Mood serves up recipes and stories that reflect heritages from all over the globe; from warming Eritrean stew to nourishing Turkish salad, from spicy pepe soup to fajitas, moussaka and real Moroccan couscous. There are raw juices, sweet treats, foods for a picnic and easy one-pot recipes.

The book explores the important link between food and mood and has beautifully illustrated recipes for some of our favourite culinary creations. Whether you’re after a complex meal or a simple snack, food is a way to take care of ourselves and others, to express ourselves imaginatively, and to evoke old memories or cook up new ones.

We will be joined at the launch by a very special guest, celebrity chef and CoolTan patron, Rosemary Shrager, who will be on hand to sign copies of the cookbook.

The launch will be a fun sociable event with the chance to sample some of the recipes, which will be prepared by our very own Cooking Club - a CoolTan workshop which gives participants the opportunity to cook healthier, cheaper versions of their favourite meals and to explore which ingredients could benefit mental and physical health.
