HOT OFF THE PRESS

Farm to Flame (Quicksand Food, $59.95) takes you from the fields of the farmers who supply chef Nicola Coccia’s Bistro Officina in Bowral to its kitchen where everything is cooked over fire. Growing up in Italy, Nicola has many memories of food cooked over flames. Artist Thomas Bucich even illustrated the chapter openers of the book with charcoal from the restaurant’s fireplace. quicksandfood.com
