JAMES BEARD AWARD NOMINEE • ONE OF THE BEST COOKBOOKS OF THE YEAR: New York Post, Taste of Home
David Chang came up as a chef in kitchens where you had to do everything the hard way. But his mother, one of the best cooks he knows, never cooked like that. Nor did food writer Priya Krishna’s mom. So Dave and Priya set out to think through the smartest, fastest, least meticulous, most delicious, absolutely imperfect ways to cook.
From figuring out the best ways to use frozen vegetables to learning when to ditch recipes and just taste and adjust your way to a terrific meal no matter what, this is Dave’s guide to substituting, adapting, shortcutting, and sandbagging—like parcooking chicken in a microwave before blasting it with flavor in a four-minute stir-fry or a ten-minute stew.
It’s all about how to think like a chef . . . who’s learned to stop thinking like a chef.
einer guten Portion Vertrauen in die eigene Intuition.
David Chang kochte nie zuhause, bis sein Sohn auf die Welt kam und er anfing, für die Familie zu kochen. Von da an folgte Chang neuen Leitsätzen. Erstens: etwas möglichst Köstliches hinzukriegen. Zweitens: mit einem möglichst geringen Zeitaufwand, und drittens: dabei möglichst wenig Chaos in der Küche anzurichten.
In diesem superpraktischen und unterhaltsamen Buch zeigt Chang, wie man wirklich gut kocht: Indem man Rezepte anpasst oder auch mal ignoriert, »Abkürzungen« oder einen unkomplizierten Weg nimmt, auch wenn der verpönt ist – zum Beispiel, indem man Hühnchen in der Mikrowelle vorkocht, um es danach in 3 Minuten knusprig zu braten.
Changs koreanische Mutter und die indische von Co-Autorin Krishna kochen beide ausgezeichnet, aber nie nach Rezept. Wie das gelingt, wie man dem eigenen Geschmack vertraut, souverän improvisiert und intuitiv kocht, das vermitteln sie in diesem vielfältigen Kochbuch mit »nicht-rezeptigen« Rezepten.
