You’ve seen him on the Food Network’s Chopped, Chefs vs.
City, and Heat Seekers. You’ve savored his
lovingly prepared dishes at Centrico in New York City. Now,
with Simple Food, Big Flavor, award-winning
restaurateur Aarón Sánchez brings the amazing tastes and
aromas found in his kitchen to yours. Aarón Sánchez’s
passion for food has placed him among the country’s leading
contemporary Latin chefs. He has earned a premiere spot in
the world of culinaria, introducing an enthusiastic national
audience to his technique and creativity with modern
interpretations of classic Latin cuisine. In Simple Food,
Big Flavor, rather than over-whelming readers with
complex, intimidating dishes, he starts small, showing how
one simple but fabulous “base” recipe can become many
fantastic dishes. Take Garlic-Chipotle Love, a blend of
roasted garlic, canned chipotles in adobo, cilantro, and
lime zest that keeps in the fridge for weeks or in the
freezer for months. Once you make it, you’re just a few
steps away from delicious dishes like Chipotle-Garlic Mashed
Potatoes, Bean and Butternut Squash Picadillo, and Mussels
with Beer and Garlic-Chipotle Love. And that’s just
the beginning. Sánchez features fifteen of these flavor base
recipes, including Roasted Tomato Salsa, Cilantro-Cotija
Pesto, and homemade Dulce de Leche. He even shares his plan
of attack for making the perfect mole and how to team it up
with roasted Cornish game hens, turkey enchiladas, and the
ultimate crowd pleaser, braised beef short ribs. He then
provides detailed yet easy tips for applying each sauce to
everyday meals, whether you spread it on hamburgers, turn it
into a marinade for easy grilled chicken, or stir in a
little oil and lime for salad dressing with a kick.
With his warm and engaging style, Sánchez equips home
cooks with the skills and knowledge they need to come up
with their own simple, flavorful meals every night of the
week. Your kitchen will be en fuego! As Sánchez says,
your food will go from inspiring smiles and polite nods to
igniting ridiculous grins and bear hugs. Enjoy!
