We want to meet all of you out there who are just learning how to cook, just graduated college and setting up your first apartment/kitchen, or just married and trying to figure what to make for dinner... Why?
Because we have the cookbook for you.
How to Boil Water is an ideal reference book: its jam-packed with genuinely useful information presented in such mouth-wateringly inspiring way anyone can use it. We demystify everything from buying pots and pans to throwing a dinner party without stressing to dealing with a pomegranate. How to Boil Water gives basic techniques as well as cool ways to put your own spin on things, spelling it all out with clear instructions, handy tips, interesting historical tidbits, and a ton of photos that clearly illustrate the difference between slicing and dicing, for instance, or how to carve a turkey. There are even quick fixes for dinnertime disasters (if your salad comes out wilted and gloppy, throw in another handful of greens and retoss).
In addition to everyday favorites like Chicken Curry, Chinese Lacquered Baby Back Ribs, Lasagne, and Chocolate Chip Banana Bread, there are sophisticated, globe-trotting dishes that pack plenty of flavor while still keeping it simple -- Spiced Edamame, Pan-Fried Salmon with Cucumber-Radish Salad, and Polenta with Sausage, to name a few. Want to show your honey some birthday love without breaking a sweat? Bake a luscious Birthday Cake with Chocolate Frosting and watch those eyes light up. Parental units descending for Thanksgiving? No worries -- Roast Turkey with Gravy, Green Beans with Shallots, and Apple Pie will have Mom asking you for the recipes.
