Mildreds: The Vegetarian Cookbook | Backburner

  • In February I cooked from the Mildreds cookbook during the third UK lockdown. Mildreds is one of my favourite restaurants in London and I had a great time recreating favourite recipes and trying new ones. Give them a visit if you're in town: www.mildreds.c... Buy the cookbook at your local bookshop or order from Hive: www.hive.co.uk...
    I know this is slightly different from previous backburners (I certainly was in a chattier mood -- product of circumstances I think!) but I hope you like it and that it can provide you with comfort. It means so much to me when you comment that backburner has helped you through something or just been a pal. Thank you. I love making them. I think next I'm going to do Anna Jones' new cookbook, but first I'd like to edit my midlands cycling video :)

    Backburner is without exaggeration my favourite thing to come from UA-cam. The calm that comes from a chat in the kitchen over food prepared to seek some brightness is unmatched, and I always turn to the old backburner videos when I need some reflection or the meditative sounds of chopping. There’s really nothing else like it and I’m so happy it’s back xx

    This is going to sound weird and stalker-ish but I’ve been really enjoying listening to your thoughts and your voice these days. Like I loved your bees video and I watched it a couple of times at night to fall asleep to. It is very comforting. So I found myself going down this rabbit hole of research about you and what you do and I was just listening to this old Dear John and Hank episode you did. You’re very cool Rosianna and in a non “in your face” kind of way. Thanks for all you are doing and creating. 🙂

They were also part of my inspiration to cook through Smith and Daughters' vegan cookbook in the first lockdown - so thank you thank you thank you. I look forward to you doing more of Anna Jones as have been toying with acquiring one of hers for myself after your previous videos!

    I love Backburner so much - this winter in a really low place I went back and watched the original set. I was amazed that there were so few of them and that they're so old now (summer of 2016! another world!) because they really occupy a place of distinction in my mental map of "the internet" and the things that have stuck with me as if they were new.
    My own relationship with food has changed so much and so much for the better since the originals and looking back at the timing, I wonder if my own cooking journey was seeded by the first Backburners - in early 2017, my last semester of uni having never learned to cook but knowing I would need to if I was to survive on my own afterwards, I went to Edinburgh books and bought Meera Sodha's Fresh India and have been cooking from it ever since, for most of that time nearly exclusively. It's a wonderful cookbook and it has completely changed my life and relationship with food.
    Something about your Backburner videos make me love food like I love a distant friend - they make me want to reach out and apologize, or say the thing I've never said, but to myself and my own body and my own food. I've come such a long way since the last one of these was published, and it's a rare thing for me to sit and focus on one thing for 50 minutes, without picking at my fingers or playing minesweeper or anything. But this has me reminded that I can build the kitchen I want (buy the immersion blender, g-d damn it!), make the food I want, craft the life I want. Thank you.

    Love these videos! I do know what you mean about being triggered by a full fridge. It was extra difficult last summer when my closer grocers were burned down or boarded up and I had to rely on friends with cars to bring me things. It meant more food. Also, last summer, I made myself a bowl of cereal at 3 am--another sleepless night in our neighborhood--when I managed to spill some milk. For the first time ever, I understood the adage, "don't cry over spilled milk".
