Clever Batch

Susan Jane White is an award-winning food writer and columnist with the Sunday Independent. When Susan was 25, she developed a serious immune disorder which marked the beginning of her nutritional pilgrimage. Her first book, The Extra Virgin Kitchen, debuted at No 1 while her second book, The Virtuous Tart, bagged an Irish Book Award. As a financially squeezed, time-pressured mum, cooking from scratch every day was good for her health, but a serious challenge to her sanity – until she discovered batch cooking. She now lives blissfully in Dublin with her husband, two bandits and a never-ending supply of almond butter brownies.
