Discover everyday deliciousness with The Smitten Kitchen Cook Book.
You don't need to be a chef
You don't need special ingredients
You don't even need a big kitchen
From a half-galley kitchen in New York with just a single counter, a tiny stove, and pans stacked high in the corner, Deb Perelman has conjured up a delicious array of stews and slaws, salsas and pestos, tatins and cheesecakes. All to-die-for. And now you can too.
Deb is an ordinary home cook who believes food should be a pleasure and deliciousness a guarantee. So she founded www.smittenkitchen.com, her award-winning blog, where she concocts, tweaks and obsessively tests the best imaginable recipes for the everyday cook.
These are recipes you'll bookmark, share, and make your own, whether it is Courgette Ribbons with Almond Pesto for a summer lunch, Everyday Margherita Pizza for the family, Seared Halibut with Gazpacho Salsa for a weekend dinner, or Tiny But Intense Chocolate Cake for a special treat.
'Utterly scrumptious. It's the kind of food you want to eat at home every weekend' Yotam Ottolenghi
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
A tiny kitchen and great eats are the winning formula for popular New York City food blogger Deb Perelman, confessed "picky" and "obsessive" self-taught cook of smittenkitchen.com blogging fame. In her first cookbook, awaited by an enormous fan base, Perelman shares her undisguised love of cooking and 300 recipes that come out of her apartment's postage stamp size kitchen. Driven by curiosity and a desire to share her cooking discoveries, Perelman delivers a collection of lab notes from well-tested culinary experiments and open dialogue with blog fans whose questions Deb credits with having "fine-tuned my cooking by forcing me to question everything." What makes the best roast chicken? How can you make gnocchi light as pillows? She approaches each cooking challenge with aplomb, breaking the mold while inspiring readers to work with whatever challenges a tiny kitchen, limited budget, equipment, or untried recipes present. What better way to convince a friend of the virtues of popcorn than by combining it with a buttery brown sugar cookie? Perelman's love of strawberry shortcake inspires a biscuit-as-cradle for juicy tomatoes topped with whipped goat cheese. Included are a great number of vegetarian recipes. This fearless home cook's humorous anecdotes and delectable photos make for a food blog gone book that translates beautifully into any kitchen and fulfills Perelman's promise to help cooks prepare food that both "she and you will love."
