Prose: non-fiction, General cookery & recipes
A unique, inspiring, and intimate celebration of contemporary Mediterranean cuisine from award-wining chef Michael Psilakis - 'the Greek-American Mario Batali' (The New Yorker).
Bon Apetit named Greek the 'cuisine of the year' in 2008, and Michael Psilakis is the standout star of Greek cooking. He is an owner of a growing empire of modern Mediterranean restaurants, including the only Michelin star-rated Greek restaurant in America, New York City's Anthos. In HOW TO ROAST A LAMB, the brilliant, self-taught Psilakis offers recipes from his restaurants and his home in his much-anticipated first cookbook.
Filled with heartfelt stories from his childhood and of his growth as a chef, HOW TO ROAST A LAMB is a personal and irresistible introduction to this vibrant way of cooking.
Psilakis's cooking utilises the fresh, naturally healthful ingredients of the Mediterranean augmented by techniques that define New American cuisine. Home cooks who have gravitated toward Italian cookbooks for the simple, user-friendly dishes, satisfying flavors, and comfortable, family-oriented meals, will welcome Psilakis's approach to Greek food, which is similarly healthful, affordable, and satisfying to share any night of the week.
