Ladies and gents, we’re back! This time, with an issue that celebrates the humble sandwich.
Inside: The most underrated sandwich in the world (Singapore’s kaya toast), Sloppy Joe in Havana, Pane Cunzato, Summer Fruit Curd, PB&J, Healthier Philly Cheesesteaks, Homemaking, Dreams and so much more… There’s an entire world for you to explore!
In a world where around 70% of the olive oil on store shelves is spoiled, blended, or cut with filler seed oils, we are proud that Issue 42 is powered by our friends who are doing extra virgin olive oil the right way, Zimms Organics.
What makes Zimms Organics special is that they are one of the few brands with a dedicated oil for every occasion. COOK for everyday cooking, HEAL for sipping and finishing, and HEAL+ for your daily shot, our highest polyphenol oil. Find yours at zimmsorganics.com.
Issue 42 is best enjoyed in a double-page spread layout:

Summer Fruit Curd
“The earliest known recipe for fruit curd appeared in the 1844 British cookbook The Lady’s Own Cookery Book, making it clear that this preserve has long been a staple in kitchens.”
— cèilidh
Sloppy Joe in Havana
“From North Africa, to the Moorish conquering of Spain, to the conquistador’s colonization of the new world, to the drunken vacation in Havana, to my 12 year-old dinner plate. This dish has come a long way.”
— Tony Mann
Pane Cunzato
“It really is a perfect bite - crusty bread, sweet tomato, salty cheese, briny anchovies and capers - all brought together by the fragrant, floral oregano oil.”
— Rosie Mackean
Death of a Tulip
“Coffee is a work of art that takes an exorbitant amount of time and effort.”
— George Curtis
How to Up Your PB&J Game
“This humble creation not only evokes vivid memories of elementary school lunches eaten out of my metal Snoopy lunchbox, but also represents one of my earliest kitchen triumphs - a recipe I could confidently make on my own.”
— Kerry Faber
Healthier Philly Cheesesteaks
“It’s one of those dinners that feels indulgent, but isn’t - and every single time I make it, it disappears fast.”
— CookWithChel
Kaya Toast
“The silkiness of the kaya is lost in the crumb’s coarse and firm chew, and the bold flavours overwhelm the delicate interplay of pandan and coconut.”
— Pamelia Chia
The Forgotten Value of Homemaking
“If you’re a mother, nothing is more valuable than giving yourself to your children and husband and home. It may not be noticed. It may not be applauded. It may be belittled by the world. But it is the most needed and valuable way you can spend your time and energy.”
— Laura Dill
Dreams & Realism
“If art is the record of the soul of humanity, then art history is a record of humanity’s response to the world on a soul level”
— Megha Lillywhite
Jambon Beurre
“The best baguette, the best jambon, a generous slathering of butter, and a heap of cornichons, enough cornichons that you don’t have to monitor your intake to ensure you have a pickle nibble in each bite.”
— Shelby Chambers
The Healing Power of Classical Music
“The healing power of music was recognized as far back as ancient Greece, where vibrations were used to aid digestion, treat mental disorders, and induce sleep”
— Kristyna Bedrnova
