(Book)

Includes bibliographical references (pages 443-444) and indexes.

"Samin Nosrat has always had a complicated relationship with recipes. How, she wondered, can a recipe be anything more than a snapshot-an attempt to define the undefinable? How can ever it capture the feeling of experiencing something in person? In Good Things, she makes peace with this paradox, offering more than 125 of her favorite recipes-simply put, the things she most loves to cook for herself and for friends-and infusing them with all the beauty and care you would expect from Samin Nosrat. As she says, "Once I hand them off to you, they are no longer mine. They're yours, to do with as you please. And maybe, in the act of receiving, a little thread of connection will be woven between me and each of you." Good Things is an essential, joyful guide to cooking and living, whether you're looking for a comforting, creamy tomato soup to console a struggling friend, seeking a deeper sense of connection in your life, or hosting a dinner for ten in your too-small dining room. Here you'll find go-to recipes for ricotta custard pancakes, chicken braised with apricots and harissa, a crunch, tingly Calabrian chili crisp, super-chewy sky-high focaccia, and a decades-in-the-making, childhood-evoking yellow cake. Along the way, you'll also find plenty of tips, techniques, and lessons from the person Alice Waters called "America's next great cooking teacher," from how to buy olive oil (check the harvest date) to when to splurge (salad dressing is where you want to use your best ingredients) to the one acceptable substitute for Parmigiano Reggiano (Grana Padano, if you must)"-- Provided by publisher.
