Synopsis
The siblings and authors of This Is a Cookbook and The Best Cookbook Ever &“take the age-old concept of comfort food and update it for modern tastes&” (Publishers Weekly). Classics Recipes for Modern People is the definitive collection of classic recipes that have been reinvented, rejiggered, reordered, and re-created by Max and Eli Sussman. They believe that recipes should be ever expanding and evolving, a philosophy they practice in both their professional and home kitchens. That a dish &“no matter how classic and iconic—has the ability to morph into something new and fantastic.&” Divided into eight sections like &“Classics from Our Childhood,&” TV Dinner Classics,&” &“Future Classics,&” and &“Breakfast Classics&” readers will find reinvented dishes inspired by Max and Eli&’s childhood in Detroit, the frozen food aisle, followers on social media, and more. &“The cookbook displays their trademark creative spin on classic dishes, featuring recipes for things like Gefilte Fish Terrine, Duck à l&’Orange, and Kibbeh and Tzatziki. It&’s decidedly not Kosher (see: Pork Burger with Apple Ketchup, Shellfish Shells), but it speaks to the contemporary trend of repurposing traditional Jewish foods to make them shine in a modern context.&”—Tablet &“Spotlights their cooking chops and dead-on wit in equal measure . . . For the book, the brothers took a novel tack to gather recipes: crowd-sourcing for childhood culinary classics.&”—The Forward &“Home cooks interested in adding to their comfort food canon will likely find some inspiration in this eye-catching collection . . . The Sussmans&’ thoughtful collection is sure to jar readers from their comfort (food) zones and encourage them to branch out to incorporate new flavors and ingredients.&”—Publishers Weekly
