About the book: 
In  Upwards,  Karen Dudley invites us on a culinary journey that transcends the ordinary, encouraging us to look up to what is true and essential – living simply and well.
 
In this follow-up to  Onwards,  Karen, with her signature warmth and insight, shares how the act of cooking can – and should be – a letting go of life’s daily preoccupations, a way to connect with ourselves and others, by paying attention to the pleasure and enjoyment of cooking something beautiful, delicious and even surprising.
 
Sharing recipes from a vibrant palette of flavours,  Upwards  lifts Karen’s loyal community towards the next level – to learn new skills, to look up to quality over quantity and to pay attention to the splendour that can come from the meditative act of cooking.  Upwards  is thus a call to be inspired, to create and to connect, all the time looking up, up, up, as we invite into our kitchens new dishes, new flavours and new possibilities.

About the Author
Karen Dudley is on a mission to improve people’s dining experience, one meal at a time. Once proprietor of the beloved and groundbreaking eatery  The Kitchen  in Woodstock, she now spends her energy creating and developing menus for restaurants and hotels around South Africa. When she’s not at work spreading knowledge in commercial kitchens in the Waterfront or boutique game lodges deep in the bushveld, she will be found in her own kitchen at home. This is where she creates entirely new recipes and tweaks old favourites into delicious new variations. And when the stack of recipes is tall enough, she puts them into a new book.
 
People who are lucky or clever enough to get their hands on a Karen Dudley cookbook can then join Karen on her mission to make food that is more delicious, stylish and doable. Karen has a dedicated following of cooks using and sharing her range of flavours and tastes… With this new book, we take our community upwards to the next level.
