February 2019 Cookbook Previews

After preparing the 2019 Preview post in late December, I skipped a preview post for January as it would have been repetitive. We are approaching a new season of cookbook releases with February through April being big months for publishing (not as big as Cookbooktober though!) so I’m back with a preview. If I have a review copy, I have provided a blurb. Others, I hope to have more information by the end of the month.

I have to make sure you all know about The New Pie coming in March. Learn more in my interview with the authors! A spectacular book for the pie baker that wants to impress. 

I have recently updated our calendar of author events and our EYBD page – be sure you check those pages frequently for updates.

This month we have the following titles to look forward to: 

• Simple & Classic: 123 Step-by-Step Recipes by Jane Hornby is a newly curated collection of the very best of Jane Hornby’s recipes from What to Cook & How to Cook It, Fresh & Easy, and What to Bake & How to Bake It, each previously published by Phaidon. Please remember Eat Your Book members receive 30% off Phaidon titles when using the link provided.

• Secrets of Great Second Meals: Flexible Modern Recipes That Value Time and Limit Waste by Sara Dickerman is not just another “makeover your leftovers” title. Here the author teaches us how to make the most of our food with some thoughtful planning. Sara helps us to identify extra food from one dinner as components to another meal and provides a list of the top ten most versatile dishes for multiple meals, offers advice on food storage (how to wrap it, when to put it in the fridge, when to freeze it, and when to throw it out), and includes tips on adding freshness and flavor using salt, acids, herbs, and texture. The recipes here are not only tempting but resourceful and no one will know leftovers are involved. Events

• Cooking at Home by Dan Doherty is a lovely collection of recipes from the author of Toast Hash Roast Mash and Duck & Waffle. What I love about restaurant chef’s “at home” titles are that the recipes are rustic but elegant and often easily approachable. Chicken yakitori, Lamb kofte with apricots & pine nuts, and a delectable Creme brulee bakewell tart are a few examples of the dishes you will find here.
