Green Bean Books was established to publish inspiring and innovative children’s literature — but we can’t resist the occasional food-related book too. The first cookbook was a fundraising collection of chocolate recipes, published in September 2022, which has already raised more than £15,000 for Chai Cancer Care. The second cookbook is Silvia Nacamulli’s brilliant and critically-acclaimed collection of Jewish-Italian recipes. And, finally, Israeli food writer Gil Hovav has penned a charming and funny memoir, with a few recipes thrown into the mix too.
