Tom is a fifth-generation baker on a mission to revisit the sheer awesomeness of grains when it comes to taste, nutrition and impact. Tom is one half of TV's Fabulous Baker Brothers. He started baking at the Hobbs House Bakery but more recently has baked with RCK (Refugee Community Kitchen) in Calais and Ujima Bakehouse in Kenya. In addition to baking, he also teaches, writes, presents, and mentors. As an ambassador for the development charity Tearfund (tearfund.org), for whom he has baked around the world, he helps to give people a hand up by sharing skills and knowledge. His dream is to one day be able to bake in space. Tom has been married to Anna since they were very young; they now share their life together with four children: Milo, Beatrix, Josephine and Prudence.
"Tom is one of the most generous and soulful cooks I have ever met. He makes cooking dinner outside on a fire, or baking amazing bread, seem natural and easy. Simple ingredients become incredible family meals. Tom's cooking is inclusive, inspired, spirited and downright delicious. I'll be cooking from this book for years. I can't wait to get outside and try them." - Anna Jones, cook and bestselling author, A Modern Way to Eat "A hymn to conviviality and sharing deliciously simple food with family and friends." - The Idler "Who said cooking can only happen in the kitchen? Tom Herbert shares ways to create meals in the fresh air...and shows you how to use embers, hot stones and buried pots to make tasty treats including sourdough doughnuts and Dutch oven bonfire casseroles." - Country Homes and Interiors
