Nothing Fancy

Book • 2019

In 'Nothing Fancy', Alison Roman emphasizes the importance of authenticity and connection when cooking for and hosting friends or guests.

The book categorizes recipes into snacks, salads, sides, mains, and 'after dinner' and includes essays on food-related subjects.

It stresses the value of using store-cupboard ingredients and provides tips for successfully hosting casual gatherings and more formal events.

Roman aims to present an 'attainable' life rather than an 'aspirational' one through her recipes and advice.
