Good Things by Samit Nosrat

Recommended by mitsumi

Just treated myself to a new cookbook and I’m loving it! Loaded with tips, easy recipes that are versatile and approachable. She cooks like I do, buy produce that gets my attention at the grocery store, look in the fridge and see what inspires. It celebrates sharing simple delicious food with people you love.

HUGE agree! I got this on her book tour (DELIGHTFUL), and real talk, the only thing I’ve made thus far are the kid crudités. But I still love the book — it’s just as wise and warm as Samin is and I feel celebrates what’s really important about food — the people you get to share it with.

The braised chickpeas are such an easy winner!

The veggie matrixes are awesome! I am obsessed with the green sauce and whipped tahini.

I liked this cookbook in theory but... not in practice! I hate to be a hater and I like Samin (I'm going to try some of the specific recipes called out by others below in the comments) but... maybe try it at the library before deciding to buy it. I think it's advertised as being less fussy than it actually is.
