The star of the popular Food Network series Tyler’s
Ultimate, Tyler Florence is famous for championing
simplicity, freshness, and culinary honesty in cooking. Now,
after more than a decade spent tracking down some of the
world’s most flavorful recipes (and debunking a generation
of novice chefs’ culinary fears), Tyler brings it all back
home to celebrate the pleasures of cooking with wholesome,
local ingredients.His easy yet toothsome recipes exemplify
the message that restaurant chefs from coast to coast have
embraced: Local foods, cooked in season and prepared simply
but with care and thought, are the best meals you can eat
anywhere.
In Tyler Florence Family Meals Tyler recounts the journey
that brought him from the home cooking he grew up loving to
the “haute-homey” restaurant cuisine that first won him
culinary acclaim, to the pleasures of the world’s great
cuisine as showcased on his Food Network shows, and
ultimately back to his roots as he prepares to open a
restaurant while raising a family of young children. He
speaks with his signature casual charm about how they can
improve their cooking and eating habits to bring about real
changes in their health and in their attitude toward food.
Better than any other chef at work today, Tyler knows what
people want to eat and how to help them achieve spectacular
results without stress or strife. With this all-new
collection of bold and exciting recipes, any cook can rid
herself of her culinary fears and discover why, when it
comes to fine dining, there is no place like home.
