Cooking at Home by David Chang

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER . The founder of Momofuku cooks at home . . . and that means mostly ignoring recipes, using tools like the microwave, and taking inspiration from his mom to get a great dinner done fast.

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.

Priya Krishna is a recent graduate of Dartmouth College, where she learned how to put up meals from the a la carte goods offered in the dining hall through a weekly piece she wrote for the school newspaper. Priya published a dining column for The Dartmouth and contributed to the Tiny Kitchen College website. She interned at the Food Network in 2012, where she contributed daily content to the Dish blog and other portions of the site. She works at Lucky Peach, a culinary and writing magazine published quarterly. She currently resides in New York City.
