For Lovers Everywhere Disclaimer I worry about why all my books have to have - photo 3

For Lovers Everywhere

Disclaimer

I worry about why all my books have to have disclaimers. I said no, but the lawyers insisted.

So, here we go:

This book is intended for adults, has adult themes and contains some explicit references to sex. Although the recipes contained within these pages may suggest that they will lead to some form of romantic conquest, I cannot guarantee that this will happen. Similarly, none of these recipes claim to cure any medical conditions and, if you believe that you are suffering from a medical condition, then I recommend that you see a medical professional. These recipes are in no way a substitute for any treatment you may need to receive.

I hope you succeed in your amorous attempts, but I accept no responsibility should you fail. Please do not try to contact me for romantic advice; my past is littered with plenty of romantic failures so I do not profess to be an authority on the subject.

Good luck. Love is a wonderful thing. I hope that this culinary adventure helps you on your quest for romance.

Do aphrodisiacs really work And even if they do isnt the concept of eating - photo 4
Do aphrodisiacs really work And even if they do isnt the concept of eating - photo 5

Do aphrodisiacs really work? And, even if they do, isnt the concept of eating foods specifically to boost libido and mutual pleasure a bit old-school? After all, these days both men and women can pop a pill to produce the desired effect. So this book is not so much concerned with the direct impacts of aphrodisiacs, which are not always quantifiable, as with the idea of making food in the name of love. And of course there is the hope that, at some point, the effort of making food may gain some form of reward. If you know what I mean.

But why, you may ask, would you not simply go to a romantic restaurant with your love interest and choose a suitably sublime menu? That is surely just as romantic as cooking for them? I beg to differ. For one thing, it is more of a gift to create something from scratch; to conceive, buy the ingredients for, create and serve a meal for someone you love (or at least have designs on) is a telling gesture. It creates the impression that youre considerate; that you care; that youre prepared to make an effort. I think you get my drift. It also shows your potential partner that you are resourceful and skilful. More and more people seem to be spending more and more time watching people cooking on screen and less and less time actually doing it in the kitchen. You can demonstrate that you have this valuable skill, which, when done well, shows off many of the same skills you also need in the bedroom: finesse, a sure touch, excellent judgement and a willingness to experiment.

And, talking of doing it in the kitchen, creating a meal at home does offer far greater and more immediate opportunities for post-prandial love-making than at least most forms of restaurant that I have ever been to. Put simply: you may start sitting at the dining table; you may end up lying on top of it.

Food and sex are intimately connected in all kinds of ways: the similar noises that we make while were engaged in these two acts, the words we use to describe them, even the feelings that both can engender.

Sex, like eating, can be both mundane and remarkable. Both acts are fundamental to human existence and theres nothing new about either: the associations between food, sex and sin have existed at least since Adam and Eve. Dont be prudish about this; as I hope you already realise, Im not going to be, despite my highly repressed British sexuality.

We use our hands and our mouths for both food and sex. We make similar noises, not just the chewing, sucking and slurping, but also the expressions of delight, groans of appreciation or perhaps most tellingly the concentrated silence of genuine enjoyment.

Then there is our language Tasty is often used to describe an attractive - photo 6

Then there is our language. Tasty is often used to describe an attractive potential partner. Depending on your age, social class, gender and where you grew up, you might also use yummy, scrummy, luscious, delicious, dishy or hunky (like a hunk of meat). And its not unknown for the expression I want to eat you up to pass between two lovers (in a generally metaphorical sense, unless, that is, you have cannibalistic tendencies and probably live somewhere in Germany). We talk about sexual appetite, cravings, being sex-starved or sated. Post-coital bliss and post-prandial satisfaction share much in common. The associations run deep.

But were not just talking about sex here that purely biological function of procreation were talking about love. Ive always thought that romantic love needs to involve both a sense of fun and of adventure and this book offers a unique culinary slant on it, with fun, adventurous recipes that should help romance to blossom.

In conventional terms, the classic romantic encounter is a dinner date, where food, wine and conversation create an atmosphere of intimacy. Such a meal is the focus of this book. The choices we make about what to eat during this window of opportunity may make all the difference between a firecracker of an evening and a damp squib. Certain foods rich in the right vitamins and minerals, and that are suggestive in colour, shape and texture, may lead to a blossoming of mutual desire.
