Summary

2019 James Beard General Cookbook Award Finalist

To the hundreds of thousands who follow her on Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook, Dorie Greenspan's food is powerfully cookable--her recipes instant classics. In Everyday Dorie, she invites readers into her kitchen to savor the dishes that she makes all the time, from Miso-Glazed Salmon to Lemon Goop.

What makes a "Dorie recipe"

Each one has a small surprise that makes it special. Mustard and walnuts in the cheese puffs. Cherry tomatoes stuffed into red bell peppers and oven-charred. Cannellini beans in cod en papillote. The dishes are practical, made with common ingredients from the supermarket, farmers' market, or pantry, like Sweet Chili Chicken Thighs, which is both weeknight simple and fine enough for company, and Eton Mess, a beautifully casual dessert of crumbled meringue, fruit, and whipped cream. They are easygoing, providing swaps and substitutions. They invite mixing and matching. Many can be served as dinner, or as a side dish, or as an appetizer, or hot, cold, or room temperature. And every single one is like a best friend in the kitchen, full of Dorie's infectious love of cooking and her trademark hand-holding directions.

Publisher's Weekly Review

Greenspan (Around My French Table), five-time James Beard Award winner, shares her favorite day-to-day recipes in this standout cookbook. Greenspan spends part of the year in France, and the Gallic influence is felt in such recipes as a roast chicken with a Dijon vinaigrette, and a salmon brandade. New York's flavors show up in a smoked-salmon and cream-cheese-filled Lower East Side brunch tart; stuffed cabbage; and Basta Pasta potato salad, named for a Manhattan Italian restaurant. There are tastes of her travels as well, such as a Luang Prabang chicken-chili sandwich she ate nightly on a visit to Laos, and a bourbon roasted pork loin inspired by a trip to Kentucky. She offers a wide range of intriguing soups and salads, including a gingered turkey meatball soup; tomato and berry gazpacho; and cauliflower tabbouleh. Easy, delicious weeknight meals abound, such as a quick tahini pork tenderloin; umami-heavy burgers; and squid with miso-seasoned corn; Giverny tomatoes (prepared with lime zest, sugar, and flake salt) and a sheet-pan supper of balsamic chicken with baby potatoes. She includes such exceptional desserts as a molasses coffee cake and chocolate-covered chai tea bars. Whether readers are just discovering Greenspan or are part of her fan base, they will be thrilled with this. (Oct.) © Copyright PWxyz, LLC. All rights reserved.

Booklist Review

*Starred Review* James Beard Award-winning cookbook author Greenspan (Dorie's Cookies , 2016) joyfully proclaims herself a mixer-and-matcher, a play-arounder, a snacker, a nibbler and a picknicker and encourages readers to be so, too, with these recipes fit for enjoying without fuss. Whether entertaining a crowd or throwing together a rushed weeknight meal, home chefs will find plenty of snack, soup, salad, meat, fish, and vegetable recipes to fit their needs (and scarcely any hard-to-find ingredients or fancy gadgets and techniques). Charming headnotes tell recipes' backstories, which often involve inspiration from Greenspan's favorite restaurants, her love of unexpected twists (e.g., lettuce soup was born to stretch a planned salad when more dinner guests than were expected showed up), and her knack for sheer invention. Her clear, longish instructions are written in a conversational style, making them both easy and fun to follow. Recipes finish with Playing Around notes for modification and include guidelines for storing and making ahead of time. And because all rules but one There must be dessert! are meant to be broken, the book's largest section includes 20 drop-dead recipes for just that. Greenspan's devoted following will eat this up.--Annie Bostrom Copyright 2018 Booklist
