It's time to twirl and slurp bowls of pasta, ramen, spaetzle, lo mein, and more with 125 recipes for noodles from around the world, from the James Beard Award-winning team at Milk Street
Nearly every culture serves some sort of noodle, from fettuccine, ramen and spaetzle, to lo mein, gnocchi and udon. So we traveled the world to learn the secrets to the best pad Thai, Italian ragu, spicy North African couscous and buttery Turkish noodles flecked with feta. In Italy, we were taught the real fettuccine Alfredo—so much lighter, simpler and more satisfying than what we knew. In Sapporo, Japan, we learned how to develop the deep umami flavors of miso ramen with minimal time and effort. And from Ho Chi Minh City to Lima, we learned the art of the quick noodle stir-fry, from Vietnamese shrimp noodles to Peruvian chicken and pasta The world of noodles also includes cool salads, steaming soups, plump dumplings and bowls of well-sauced shapes of all kind. Noodles are a perfect canvas for spring and summer vegetables, as well as hearty wintertime baked casseroles. And if speed is your need, try hoisin-ginger noodles or our cheesy one-pan cacio e pepe, both ready in 20 minutes.
We include guides to using the noodles you have on hand, and show how to make classic noodles from scratch—from homemade udon and hand-cut wheat noodles to fresh egg pasta, orecchiette and potato gnocchi.
What's for dinner? Use your noodle.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Kimball (Milk Street: The World in a Skillet) delivers a resourceful primer on noodles, a food that "charm and delight almost every kitchen in the world." Readers reap the benefits of his Milk Street team being dispatched to learn at the elbow of cooks across the globe. A chapter of stir-fries features a satisfying range of noodle varieties, including glass, sweet potato starch, udon, rice, and ramen. Sour soups of Eastern Europe, meanwhile, are represented in a recipe that calls for sauerkraut and its tangy brine. Dishes draw on widely available and pantry-friendly ingredients, and often result in pleasing mash-ups: a chicken noodle soup with turmeric and coconut milk relies on influences from China, India, Myanmar, and Thailand, while a Syrian-inspired pasta comes together with fettuccine, lentils, and pomegranate molasses. Innovative takes on Italian classics will help home cooks get dinner on the table quickly; the long-simmered, hearty zuppa forte of Naples, for example, becomes a 30-minute meal thanks to diced pancetta and Korean gochujang, and gnocchi is created "in an instant" using dried potato flakes. Even the humble tuna noodle casserole gets an upgrade with Gruyère, capers, and sautéed fennel. With handy tips and practical indexing, this welcome compendium does not disappoint.
