You will, in short, learn to cook 'by heart'- and that's where the fun really begins.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bloomsbury","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57079361765749,"sku":"9781526652874","price":25.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0289\/5334\/6096\/files\/9781526652874.jpg?v=1776430401","url":"https:\/\/goldenharebooks.com\/products\/9781526652874","provider":"Golden Hare Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
