Cookbooks
My name is Alton Brown, and I wrote this book. Itβs my first in a few years because Iβve been a little busy with TV stuff and inter webs stuff and live stage show stuff. Sure, Iβve been cooking, but itβs been mostly to feed myself and people in my immediate vicinityβwhich is really what a cook is supposed to do, right? Well, one day I was sitting around trying to organize my recipes, and I realized that I should put them into a personal collection. One thing led to another, and hereβs EveryDayCook. Thereβs still plenty of science and hopefully some humor in here (my agent says thatβs my βwheelhouseβ), but unlike in my other books, a lot of attention went into the photos, which were all taken on my iPhone (take that, Instagram) and are suitable for framing. As for the recipes, which are arranged by time of day, theyβre pretty darned tasty. Highlights include: β’ Morning: Buttermilk Lassi, Overnight Coconut Oats, Nitrous Pancakes β’ Coffee Break: Cold Brew Coffee, Lacquered Bacon, Seedy Date Bars β’ Noon: Smoky the Meat Loaf, Grilled Cheese Grilled Sandwich, βEnchiLasagnaβ or βLasagnaladaβ β’ Afternoon: Green Grape Cobbler, Crispy Chickpeas, Savory Greek Yogurt Dip β’ Evening: Bad Day Bitter Martini, Mussels-O-Miso, Garam Masalmon Steaks β’ Anytime: The Generalβs Fried Chicken, Roasted Chile Salsa, Peach Punch Pops β’ Later: Cider House Fondue, Open Sesame Noodles, Chocapocalypse Cookie So letβs review: 101 recipes with mouthwatering photos, a plethora of useful insights on methods, tools, and ingredients all written by an βaward-winning and influential educator and tastemaker.β That last part is from the PR office. Real people donβt talk like that.
