Amazing Fruit Salad


I have a confession.

I am writing a proposal for a cookbook.

Writing a book is something I have daydreamed about for years but never really thought would transition into reality. Then I received an email in April from a literary agent, Juliet Pickering at A P Watt, saying how much she liked the blog and asking if I had any book ideas. We sent emails back and forth and she tried a recipe of mine. Literally two hours before I went to the Guild awards ceremony, we finally met.


And so - I signed. I have an agent. (I keep on having to repeat that one back to myself to believe it). I'm even on the website! You can find me by looking in authors (!), then G for Gardner, Emma.

Around the time of the awards, several editors and other agents approached me. I have to admit that at the time I found it all hilarious. Ridiculously, they-must-be-joking, absurdly hilarious. Now I've spent a lot of time working on an idea, it doesn't feel so funny.

It feels absolutely terrifying.

The only experience I can vaguely equate it to is falling in love. The excitement and thrill firmly streaked with the terror of loss and rejection. The all-encompassing nature that means you can't think about anything else. The excitement itself is scary - the more you want it and believe it will work, the harder it is to think of it failing.

Having said that, there are differences. I don't remember falling in love being so stressful... or such hard work.


For some reason I haven't quite pinned down, I really want to share this with you now. Not later, when I've avoided public failure. Now, when I am at the beginning.

Yesterday, Tara posted a quote on twitter from an interview with Cheryl Strayed:

"I find the most important thing for aspiring writers is for them to give themselves permission to be brave on the page, to write in the presence of fear".

I am definitely in the presence of fear, both on my proposal document and right here, sharing this with you. I can't decide if this is brave or foolish (or, for that matter, boring - so many bloggers are writing books).


The end that is a beginning does seem to be in sight - my proposal is nearly finished. I sent a partial first draft to Juliet today.

I've thrown out huge chunks of work, reinvented and edited on repeat. I'm on my third chapter of sample recipes, having binned the others for various reasons. There have been three, four, five, six batches of testing a day in the past weeks. Mum had her holiday time in California filled with testing and writing.

As you might have noticed, there is one teeny little problem - I'm signed up to do a masters at Oxford this autumn. If this does all happen, I'm hoping to defer or re-apply for next year. I've spent a lot of time agonizing over what to do. It will only be worth it if I can create something I'm really proud of.

I know this post isn't the most cheerful, it's-all-sunshine-and-happiness way to tell you, but it is the truth. I've tried to write this post differently but at the moment my excitement is too entangled with fear to unravel the two and only write about one. Besides, I want to preserve this moment - whatever comes next.

So yes. That is what I am up to. Are you excited? Would you like me to write a book? I hope so!


*

We had a dinner party a few weeks ago in California. About an hour before the guests turned up (when the main course was in the oven), I realised the pudding I'd planned wasn't nice enough to serve (this may or may not have been perfectionism on my part). This fruit salad was born.

I had to make it again the next day. The quality of the fruit in California is insane - everything is bursting with flavour. I've put a recipe below for the version we fell in love with but it's just a guideline. The figs perfume the whole bowl and the minty-lemon syrup heightens the taste of every fruit.

My pointers for fruit salads = buy the best fruit you can and use it at the peak of ripeness (it's not a place to hide furry apples and overripe bananas); have lots of colours for visual appeal; let it sit for a bit and finally use a nice sharp-sweet syrup to dress it (I like to use the syrup while it's still warm, it seems to help everything to mingle).


Amazing Fruit Salad

2 small lemons (or 1 big)
25g caster sugar
a sprig or two of fresh mint
1/4 big cantaloupe melon
1 small mango
1-2 white peaches or nectarines
big handful of blueberries
big handful of cherries
small punnet of strawberries
2-3 figs

Cut the lemons into halves and juice three of them into a small saucepan. Add the sugar, about 50ml of water and two or three mint leaves. Place over a medium-high heat until the sugar has dissolved. Pour into a bowl or glass to cool a little.

Chop the fruit up into fairly big chunks. Peaches need skinning, strawberries need hulling, cherries need pitting, blueberries are fine as they are and so on. Place all the fruit minus the figs (which I cut into small pieces) into the bowl as you go and toss together. Squeeze the other half of the lemon over as you add more. Finally put the figs on top.

Remove the mint leaves from the syrup and pour it over the fruit. Toss everything together, making sure the syrup comes into contact with all of the fruit. Cover with clingfilm and leave for 1-4 hours. Toss again. Finely chop 1-2 leaves of mint and sprinkle over the top, then serve.

(Serves 4-6)

    Emma says that my holiday was filled with testing and writing- it was.
    What she doesn't mention was that I was so fortunate. I tasted all the lovely things that she created. They were delicious!

    I am so proud of her. She really does her best and is only satisfied when something is "right".

  9. I love that with this very exciting news (possibly the biggest news any food blogger could ever dream of), you've posted a recipe for a humble, simple but absolutely beautiful fruit salad. I think that says a lot. Congratulations on this incredible news, you really are a star! Will be eagerly waiting your book ;)

  10. Congratulations! I have no doubt your book will be as beautiful as your blog. I am planning a trip to California in August and I will definitely try to recreate this salad when I'm there. The fruit in Vancouver right now isn't too great.

    Congratulations again and best of luck on the slog of book writing!

  11. Congratulations. You have done so well for someone so young. I have been baking and cooking for over 45 years and am always amazed at the wonderful things you come up with. Yes, many bloggers are now writing books (and NO, it is not boring). It is a breath of fresh air. May there be many more. You write beautifully, openly and honestly and I love your photography. All your dreams can come true, if you have the courage to pursue them. All the best with your book and your studies.

  15. Emma, I've been reading your blog for a while, and I'm so pleased for you. Even at this point, where you're not exactly sure which direction you're going in, and your emotions are up and down, you write about your thoughts and feelings with amazing clarity and precision. I really hope things work out (I feel confident for you that they will!) I follow a lot of other cooking blogs too, but just looking at your website it's obvious any book you write will stand out from the crowd.

  16. What an exciting and wonderful journey you have begun.....and I cannot WAIT to see where it takes you. Love everything about your blog from the writing to the photos and the recipes of course. Very excited for you and a hearty congratulations!

    ReplyDelete
  17. Emma, congratulations!! You should definitely be proud of yourself, the little (or huge) fear you feel is all part of the sometimes fun sometimes frightening thing called life!
    I would definitely read and buy your book: just think at this fruit salad, it can be a humble and everyday recipe, yet you managed to make it extraordinary, I feel like running in the kitchen and use those ripe and juicy peaches in a fruit salad for dinner!

  19. Emma you've said it all: it's a dream you'.ve had for years, the masters can wait! Follow your dreams and do what makes you happy. by the way, the salad looks amazing. Some people add 7Up to fruit salad, it's actually a nice idea too!

  20. Emma, I knew it would be only a matter of time until your first cookbook - big congratulations! Can't wait to see it and feature it.

  21. Yes I want your cookbook! I'm actually teaching myself how to convert UK measurements to US measurements because your blog is just that awesome. Keep up the amazing work - you are such an inspiration!

  24. Lande-Dines - Thank you Laura! I'm so pleased you find the blog inspiring.

    Zita Aw, thank you Zita! Looking forward to seeing you again soon :)

    london bakes - Hopefully there will be more to tell and later more to see! Thanks for your support.

    Anon no.1 - That's a long time! Thank you for all the support :)

    Charlotte Pike - Thank you Charlotte! I'm excited too -I think this post has purged some of my fears :)

    Anon no.2 - I'm so glad you'll buy it - I'll try my best to make sure it's available in NZ! It's such a gorgeous county, I loved visiting when I was little.

    Anon no.3 - It is such a wonderful opportunity, I hope I can make the best of it and that you'll be impressed with the end result!

    Emiko - I'll have to make sure it's available in Australia, then! I'm so glad you're excited.

    Sarah - I'm jealous - I wish I could go back now! It's such an amazing place. If you get to the Bay Area, you must go to Berkeley Bowl if you're looking for produce - it's the most incredible store, I thought I was in heaven!

    Corry - Thank you so much for your truly lovely comment - the support means a lot to me.

    Stephcookie - Thanks! I'm so glad you're excited - another reason to push for Aussie publication ;)

    simple baking - Thank you! I hope you don't have to wait too long :)

    Milli - You're right - it would be weird. It's always nice to have a true record of a time, it's so easy to gloss it over and think that it was easy or your feelings were one dimensional when they were more complex. Thanks for your support!

    Anon no.4 - Aw, thank you so much - what a lovely comment. I hope I can live up to your expectations!

    Sukaina - Life is definitely a journey! Thanks for your support :)

    Juls - It definitely has fun days and frightening days, that's true. I'm so glad you like the fruit salad, they're so unfashionable but can be so amazing if you use great ingredients.

    Katrina @ Warm Vanilla Sugar - It was a lovely treat. I wish there were more great fruit salads in the world!

    Ines - I guess the problem comes when you have multiple dreams and multiple things make you happy! But I am happy with the choice I think I'll make when the time comes. Lemonade sounds like an interesting option - I guess it loses most of it's fizz? I bet elderflower cordial with sparkling water would be lovely too.

    Gretchen - Well you were the one that's always believed! Thank you for all your support & we must actually meet up for coffee soon! I'll email you soon.

    cocoaandchanel - Do you have any scales? I would be quite worried about converting back into US as metric is so precise - I doubt you could get small enough increments! I don't mean to be pushy - I just really believe that scales are the best and wouldn't want you to get a bad result! Bravetart has a wonderful post on it here - http://bravetart.com/blog/WhyWeight/. But anyway, just my thoughts! Thanks for the support with the book.

    Domestic Executive - You definitely never know - so many twists and turns! But most days I think life is the better for it. Thanks for your continued support and comments!

    Lottie - I pretty much made it as a collection of my favourite fruits so I guess it's not surprising that I thought it was amazing. I hope you give it a go and thanks for the good wishes :)

  27. Huge congratulations Emma, I've followed your progress for a couple of years. You're blog is a beautiful collection of both tried, tested and tweaked recipe's but also your gorgeous photographic style that draws me in. When baking you are always my first port of call for inspiration. I feel so proud of you! Take your'e time and savour the moment. I'm sure like a recipe you will come away with new ideas and things you want to try next. That's what makes your blog special – your journey to perfection not perfect itself. And if you want/need someone to design the layouts I would love to be considered. x

  38. You have great blog Emma, I can see why they approached you to write a book. I've managed to publish an iBook, it's only available on the iPad though, busy looking into other self publishing options. I guess to get a book deal you just need to get and lucky, and be a good creative cook probably helps.
