Cooking from Scratch is chef and storyteller Toya Boudy's most personal-and most irresistible-cookbook yet. Written during a transformative chapter in her life, it's infused with warmth, humour and grit.

Drawing inspiration from Malinda Russell's groundbreaking 1866 cookbook, A Domestic Cook Book, Boudy reimagines simple, soul-satisfying dishes designed to bring people together. In the wake of divorce and deep self-reflection, she has returned to the kitchen-the place that saved her nearly 30 years ago as a teenage single mother.

Cooking from Scratch includes 70 family-loved recipes shaped by the cultures that define her: Mini Crawfish Pies, Jamaican Curry, African Spinach Stew, homey Salisbury Steak and more. Beyond the table, she shares 20 natural remedies-from herbal cough syrup to "Detox" Lentil Soup-that nourish body and spirit alike. With every page, Boudy shows how healing, joy and resilience can begin with something beautifully simple: cooking from scratch.
