Book excerpt: “A book you’ll use every day. . . . Think of these sauces as a culinary bag of tricks. I do.” —Dorie Greenspan, James Beard Award winner and New York Times–bestselling author of Around My French Table Mastering sauces can take your cooking to a whole new level. Award-winning food writer Martha Holmberg was trained at La Varenne, and in Modern Sauces she tackles this sometimes-intimidating subject—using clear, short bites of information and dozens of process photographs to deliver the skill of great sauce-making to every kind of cook, including beginners. More than 100 recipes for sauces range from standards such as béarnaise, hollandaise, and marinara to modern riffs including maple-rum sabayon, caramelized onion coulis, and coconut-curry spiked chocolate sauce. An additional fifty-five recipes use the sauces to their greatest advantage, beautifying pasta, complementing meat or fish, or elevating a cake to brilliant. Organized by ingredient and method, Modern Sauces is both an inspiration and a timeless reference on kitchen technique. “In a clear and encouraging voice, she explains how to season, store, portion, and improvise on classic sauces . . . Easily Holmberg’s best cookbook to date, this uses delicious recipes—like the outstanding Rice Pudding with Cardamom Meringues, Lime Crème Anglaise, and Chunky Mixed-Berry Coulis—to put essential skills in context.” —Library Journal

Download or read book Simply Scratch written by Laurie McNamara and published by Avery. This book was released on 2015-11-17 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "From the popular blogger behind Simply Scratch comes a debut cookbook showing how to home-cook absolutely everything from scratch. For Laurie McNamara, growing up on a farm in the country had major perks: her mother cooked with vegetables from the family garden, they collected fresh eggs from the chicken coop, and absolutely everything--from ketchup to casseroles--was made 100 percent from scratch. When she moved away from home, though, McNamara was too busy working full-time and raising two kids to prepare from-scratch meals. Like most Americans, she relied on boxed brownie mix, canned soup, bottled dressings, and frozen dinners to make home cooking quicker and cheaper. But she soon learned that these so-called shortcuts were in fact both more expensive and light-years less healthy than simply making everything herself. Eventually, she'd had enough and vowed to remake her kitchen into a from-scratch kitchen. Now, four years later, McNamara has helped hundreds of thousands of home cooks prepare from-scratch meals with whole food ingredients through her blog, Simply Scratch. McNamara's highly anticipated debut cookbook, Simply Scratch, takes her home-cooking know-how to the nation, with 120 wholesome, mouthwatering recipes along with stunning photography, entertaining anecdotes, and personal musings. This book offers easy recipes for delectable concoctions such as Buckwheat Pancakes and Creamy Roasted Tomato Soup. Simply Scratch will be the must-have bible to cooking beyond the box and can. Featuring everyday ingredients, a down-to-earth approach, and family recipes, Simply Scratch proves cooking from scratch can be affordable, simple, fun, and--of course--absolutely delicious"--

This book was released on 2010-06-14 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Brooklyn's sizzling restaurant scene, the hottest cookbook of the season... From urban singles to families with kids, local residents to the Hollywood set, everyone flocks to Frankies Spuntino—a tin-ceilinged, brick-walled restaurant in Brooklyn's Carroll Gardens—for food that is "completely satisfying" (wrote Frank Bruni in The New York Times). The two Franks, both veterans of gourmet kitchens, created a menu filled with new classics: Italian American comfort food re-imagined with great ingredients and greenmarket sides. This witty cookbook, with its gilded edges and embossed cover, may look old-fashioned, but the recipes are just we want to eat now. The entire Frankies menu is adapted here for the home cook—from small bites including Cremini Mushroom and Truffle Oil Crostini, to such salads as Escarole with Sliced Onion & Walnuts, to hearty main dishes including homemade Cavatelli with Hot Sausage & Browned Butter. With shortcuts and insider tricks gleaned from years in gourmet kitchens, easy tutorials on making fresh pasta or tying braciola, and an amusing discourse on Brooklyn-style Sunday "sauce" (ragu), The Frankies Spuntino Kitchen Companion & Kitchen Manual will seduce both experienced home cooks and a younger audience that is newer to the kitchen.
