#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - Cook with confidence no matter how
much experience you have in the kitchen with the help of the beloved
Food Network star
"Garten has kicked things up a level, this time encouraging readers to
try more ambitious recipes that are still signature Ina: warm,
comforting, homey."--Chicago Tribune
NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY The New York Times Book
Review - Food Network - Food & Wine - PopSugar - The Atlanta
Journal-Constitution - Country Living - The Feast - Eater - The
Kitchn - Delish
In this collection of foolproof recipes, Ina brings readers' cooking
know-how to the next level by answering questions, teaching techniques,
and explaining her process right in the margin of each recipe--it's as
if she's in the kitchen by your side guiding you through the recipe.
When you make her Cauliflower Toasts with prosciutto and Gruyère, she
shows you the best way to cut a cauliflower into perfect florets without
getting them all over the kitchen (from the stem end, with the head
turned upside-down!) and when making her Red Wine-Braised Short Ribs,
Ina shares a fantastic tip for keeping your stovetop clean (roast the
short ribs in the oven rather than browning them in a pan on the
stove!). You'll discover dozens more ingenious tips and shortcuts
throughout, such as how to set up an elegant home bar, how to peel two
heads of garlic quickly, how to use a paring knife to create a
pro-worthy pattern on her decadent Chocolate Chevron Cake, and the key
to making unbelievably creamy Truffled Scrambled Eggs (add the eggs to
the skillet before the butter melts--who knew?!).
Both beginners and advanced cooks will love this book filled with new
dishes that will become part of your repertoire and practical cooking
advice that will give you more confidence in the kitchen. Your friends
and family will be so impressed!
