About this ebook

A diverse collection of home cooking recipes from America's top chefs, including David Chang, Rick Bayless, Nathalie Dupree, and many more.

The James Beard Award-winning Food & Dining editor of The Washington Post, Joe Yonan asked a hundred of America's best chefs, artisan producers, and food personalities a personal question: What do you love to cook for the people that you love? Their answers comprise this unique cookbook—the ultimate celebration of contemporary American cuisine in all its glorious diversity.

From well-known chefs and TV personalities like Buddy Valastro and Carla Hall to culinary revolutionaries such as Michael Voltaggio and Dan Barber, these great American culinary heroes share their most treasured home recipes. Lavishly photographed with spectacular images of food and locations from across the United States, this gorgeous cookbook highlights the very best of American food.
