Book Overview

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - From the author of Salt, Fat, Acid, Heat--and one of America's most beloved chefs and teachers--125 meticulously tested, flavor-forward, soul-nourishing recipes that bring joy and a sense of communion

A BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR: THE NEW YORKER, BON APPÉTIT, WASHINGTON POST, SMITHSONIAN MAGAZINE, LIBRARY JOURNAL, NEW YORK PUBLIC LIBRARY

With all the generosity of spirit that has endeared her to millions of fans, Samin Nosrat offers more than 125 of her favorite recipes--simply put, the things she most loves to cook for herself and for friends--and infuses them with all the beauty and care you would expect from the person Alice Waters called "America's next great cooking teacher." As Samin says, "Recipes, like rituals, endure because they're passed down to us--whether by ancestors, neighbors, friends, strangers on the internet, or me to you. A written recipe is just a shimmering decoy for the true inheritance: the thread of connection that cooking it will unspool."

Good Things is an essential, joyful guide to cooking and living, whether you're looking for a comforting 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, a showstopping roast chicken burnished with saffron, a crunchy, tingly Calabrian chili crisp, super-chewy sky-high focaccia, and a decades-in-the-making, childhood-evoking yellow cake with chocolate frosting. Along the way, you'll also find plenty of tips, techniques, and lessons, 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 best uses for your pressure cooker (chicken stock and dulce de leche, naturally).

Good Things captures, with Samin's trademark blend of warmth, creativity, and precision, what has made cooking such an important source of delight and comfort in her life.
