Milk Street Cook What You Have Cookbook

When you look around the kitchen only to think that you have “nothing for dinner,” this cookbook will provide the inspiration for a great meal. With “Cook What You Have,” you can make amazing and easy suppers out of the simplest pantry staples. The 225 recipes demonstrate the surprising possibilities that can be fashioned from the basic ingredients you already have at home. All of the recipes have fewer than 10 ingredients; most have fewer than eight; many have only six. The result is a range of weeknight-simple meals that nevertheless bring creativity and inspiration to every recipe. This is how any good cook thinks about preparing dinner: Cook what is on hand instead of starting with a shopping list that adds expense and effort. And forget about calling for take-out. You do have plenty to make for dinner.
