Publisher Description
Celebrity chef Stuart O'Keeffe and comedian Amy Phillips
razz the Real Housewives in this gorgeous cookbook filled with recipes inspired
by iconic moments in the franchise’s rich history. With a foreword by Andy Cohen.
“Cook It, Spill It, Throw It is an
immersive, one-of-a-kind experience in a world we can’t escape (but let’s face
it, we don’t want to!).” —from the foreword by Andy Cohen
Trends come and go, but watching rich women drink and
catfight is forever. Which is why after more than a decade of airing, the Real
Housewives phenomenon continues to reign supreme in the pop culture
stratosphere. Week after week, season after season, loyal fans watch the
thrilling drama—the backstabbing, the gossiping, the screaming, the table
flipping, the wine tossing—unfold.
Cook It, Spill It, Throw It is a cookbook created
specifically for Housewives fans. Chef Stuart O’Keeffe and comedian Amy Phillips—long-time
devotees themselves—have dreamed up an inviting menu served with a side of
delicious snark.
Inspired by the series and its stars, the dishes and drinks
evoke familiar moments of chaos from the franchise. Whether you’re looking to
make Ponytail Pulled Pork, or you want to comfort a friend in the Caicos with
Eggs a Lu’Francais, there’s a meal for you—and there are definitely plenty of
drinks (including Henny-thing Can Happen and the classic Singer Stinger
Sipper).
Featuring gorgeous original photography and equally gorgeous
recipes, Cook It, Spill It, Throw It is the must-have cookbook and
companion for every Housewives addict.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Chef O'Keefe (The Quick Six Fix) and comedian Phillips, superfans of the Real Housewives, deliver a saucy send-up of the "boozy breakfasts and catty cocktail hours have inspired some of the show's most epic moments." For "Housewife-level festivities and fights," they suggest starting with the right tools ("aka Your Kitchen's Glam Squad") and bar basics (vodka, limes, Advil). Dishes call back to the show's drama—such as a chicken satay inspired by a "Dinner Party from Hell," when one housewife was "skewered" over a spread in Playboy magazine—and come with a healthy serving of hokey quips (the Butter Knife Brawl Biscuits, for instance, are "so good, the flavor smacks you in the face like a purse!"). Corn—from street corn to Corn Chex to corn dogs—is always on the menu. Recipes for appetizers, meats, and seafood, and a robust selection of cocktails don such cheeky names as Wig Snatchatore and Welcome Back Scumbag Scallops Linguini, but the dishes themselves are mostly uninspiring. While brunch items such as Bloopberry Muffins and Bunnygate Biscuits are whimsical, Your Husband's in the Pool-enta and Prostitution Whore Puttanesca Pasta conjure up images of more than just food. Hilarity aside, this one's only for serious fans.
