Després de dedicar els seus dos llibres anteriors a les tècniques culinàries, Joan Roca recupera, en aquest llibre, la cuina tradicional de les mares, les receptes de sempre, amb l'objectiu que tothom pugui cuinar a casa. Sense perdre el seu toc de qualitat, ens ofereix receptes sense complicacions, ni tecnicismes. Quines receptes s'inclouen en el llibre? • Receptes de tota la vida, les receptes de les nostres mares. • Receptes de tota la vida adaptades a la cuina actual. Per exemple, receptes baixes en greixos. • Plats de sempre però amb una versió modernitzada. El llibre comptarà amb una distribució clàssica de receptes: entrants, peixos, carns, ous, verdures i postres; així com amb una breu introducció a les tècniques fonamentals de la cuina.
