- Synopsis
-
Richard Olney was considered a culinary genius for his ability to elevate cooking to a practical art. He wrote evocatively about the beauty and pleasure in cooking by focusing on preparing simple foods well.
This new edition of his classic cookbook includes a fresh cover, new interior design, and a foreword by Mark Bittman--so that a whole new generation of food lovers can enjoy this inspiring book.
Olney's 175 recipes are so straightforward that cooks will be inspired to go right into the kitchen: herb omelets, fish with zucchini, lamb shanks with garlic, and many more.
He also shares techniques (several featuring his own illustrations), such as fermenting vinegar, in line with the back-to-basics trend in cooking.
Olney's emphasis on simplicity and improvisation in cooking will resonate with today's cooks and food lovers.
