Bright, vibrant Brazilian food with Ixta's signature style and flair. From the author of MEZCLA (59K net sales) and co-author of Ottolenghi FLAVOUR (235k TCM).

‘Jubilant fusion that’s coherent and convincing but, above all, delicious.’ Nigella Lawson
‘Not many cooks can create this kind of magic with such incredible flair.’ Yotam Ottolenghi

Brighten up your meal times with the flavours of Brazil.

Bestselling author, Ixta Belfrage has made a name for herself as one of the most exciting young talents in the food industry and in FUSÃO (translating to fusion in Portuguese), she brings all her signature creativity and flair to the food of her mother’s homeland.

With recipes such as Moqueca fish burgers, Duck in golden tomato broth and Papaya & chocolate cake with citrus honey glaze, Ixta’s recipes offer up fresh takes on Brazilian dishes and ingredients, along with explanations and substitutions for any hard-to-find ingredients. With stunning photography from Brazil and personal stories intertwined with vibrant recipes, this is food to share, excite and inspire.

About the author

Ixta Belfrage

Ixta Belfrage spent her youth dipping her fingers into mixing bowls in places as far-flung as Italy, Mexico and Brazil and so became an expert without a title. She began her culinary career proper at Ottolenghi's NOPI restaurant, before moving to the Test Kitchen, where she has worked for Yotam Ottolenghi for four years, contributing to his columns in The Guardian and The New York Times. She lives in London, where she makes regular guest chef appearances in some of the city’s top restaurants. Flavour is her first book.
