The Food52 Cookbook

140 Winning Recipes From Exceptional Home Cooks

Overview

From the publisher

The Food 52 Cookbook is the first-ever online community cookbook, based on the popular Food52.com website by bestselling author Amanda Hesser and food writer Merrill Stubbs. The beautifully photographed pages are filled with more than 140 delicious seasonal recipes from the most inventive home cooks in America. The Food 52 Cookbook is a feast for the senses, tantalizing with scrumptious culinary delights like Lamb Burgers with Cilantro Yogurt and Strawberries with Lavender Biscuits.

Hesser and Stubbs had a mission: to discover and celebrate the best home cooks in the country. Each week for 52 weeks, they ran recipe contests on their website, Food52.com, and the 140 winning recipes make up this book. They include:

Double Chocolate Espresso Cookies
Secret Ingredient Beef Stew
Simple Summer Peach Cake
Wishbone Roast Chicken with Herb Butter

These recipes prove the truth that great home cooking doesn’t have to be complicated or precious to be memorable. This book captures the community spirit that has made Food52 a success. It features Amanda’s and Merrill’s thoughts and tips on every recipe, plus behind-the-scenes photos, reader comments, and portraits of the contributors — putting you right in the kitchen with America’s most talented cooks.
