Do you want to eat really well—not just once in a while, but
all the time—but you don't know where to begin? Are you tired of pizza—as much as you like it—and broke from
buying takeout? Do you love good food—the straightforward, homemade kind—but
feel challenged to set up a kitchen, shop for decent
equipment and groceries, and tap into a few basic skills
that can put a simple roast chicken or vegetarian entrÉe on
your dinner table? If you answer "yes" to these questions, then Get Cooking is
for you. Get Cooking is the first book from bestselling
cookbook author Mollie Katzen designed specifically for
beginners, whether you are just starting to cook for
yourself or trying to kick the restaurant habit. Unlike most
cookbooks, the goal of Get Cooking is to get you in the
kitchen, no matter what your experience level might be. Illustrated throughout with color photographs of each dish,
Get Cooking gives you clear, step-by-step instructions for
making everything from classic mashed potatoes to
Broccoli–Cheddar Cheese Calzones to Hot Fudge Sundaes (with
homemade hot fudge!). With this book, anyone—you
included—can make delicious, fresh food, with a lot less
expense (and a lot more satisfaction) than ordering in. You may know Mollie Katzen as the author of such famous
cookbooks as Moosewood Cookbook or The Enchanted Broccoli
Forest; Get Cooking has all of the accessibility and
personal warmth of those beloved books, but it is Mollie's
first cookbook for vegetarians and omnivores alike. You will
learn how to make North African Red Lentil Soup, Linguine
with Spinach and Peas, and Chickpea and Mango Curry—and also
Homemade Chicken Noodle Soup, Spinach Lasagna, and Steak
Fajitas. With Get Cooking in hand, you'll be serving everything from
salads (such as Wilted Spinach Salad with Hazelnuts, Goat
Cheese, and Golden Raisins) to desserts (try the Cheesecake
Bars), with stops along the way for party snacks, a full
array of side dishes, and a brilliant assortment of
handcrafted burgers (bean, tofu, and mushroom—as well as
beef, turkey, and tuna). Here at last is the cookbook that
will make a cook out of everyone.
