America's Best Chefs Cook With Jeremiah Tower Cookbook

Additional Details

Description: This companion book to the landmark twenty-six-part PBS series America's Best Chefs Cook with Jeremiah Tower presents a candid portrait of fourteen James Beard Award-winning chefs as seen through the eyes of Jeremiah Tower, the legendary chef, author, and acclaimed pioneer of American regional cuisine. He takes a fascinating culinary journey around the country, visiting Alain Ducasse, Michael Romano, Gale Gand, Charlie Trotter, Nancy Silverton, and the other celebrated chefs to reveal how they work with ingredients and techniques to articulate a culinary style and sensibility that is uniquely their own.  

Celebrating a culinary heritage as rich and colorful as the American landscape, Americas Best Chefs Cook with Jeremiah Tower contains over 100 exceptional recipes, with favorites from each chef's distinctive repertoire. There are fresh twists on the familiar as well as intriguing new flavor combinations and innovations, ranging from a classic -- with a difference -- BLT (Alain Ducasse) and flavorful Spaghetti with Oven-Dried Tomatoes and Bottarga (Michael Romano) to a delicate Gougeres and Winter Green Salad with Apples and Cheese (Odessa Piper) and deceptively homespun Apple and Rutabaga Soup with Maple Syrup (Patrick O'Connell). A generous sampling of Tower's own recipes and his take on dishes made with his guests on the show are peppered throughout. 

As in the PBS series, America's Best Chefs Cook with Jeremiah Tower reveals how each chef's unique philosophy of food -- and life -- is expressed in each dish. From coast to coast, from recipe to recipe, the book is filled with insights on food and flavor that reflect the passion and enthusiasm of chefs talking about their favorite subject -- a wonderful resource for every cook who wants to share the recipes and culinary secrets of America's Best Chefs.
