“One of our Midlife mantras is to embrace variety – and the sheer abundance of flavour, texture and colour here will clearly do wonders for you,” say cookbook writers Mimi Spencer and Sam Rice. “It’s a rainbow of raw excellence, brought together with a terrific tangy dressing guaranteed to transport you to a Koh Samui beach. “You’ll need a bit of time to chop and slice, but otherwise it’s a doddle. Place all the dressing ingredients in a jar, seal with the lid and shake well until combined. The Midlife Kitchen by Mimi Spencer and Sam Rice, photography by Issy Crocker, is published by Mitchell Beazley, priced £16.99 (octopusbooks.co.uk).
