A Writer in the Kitchen

By Laurie Colwin

Forward by Ruth Reichl

Favorite quote: “A large number of red peppers is a beautiful sight. Even more beautiful is the sight of them cut into strips and ready to be simmered in a large pot of fruity olive oil. And of course, most magnificent of all is a large glass jar packed with fried peppers, studded with slivered garlic cloves, seasoned with salt, pepper, the juice of half a lemon and covered with the olive oil they were fried in. Some people might call this Red Pepper Conserve, but it will always be red pepper sludge to me.”

From the publisher: “A seminal work of American food writing — part essay collection, part cookbook — that reshaped the way we think about what we eat, Laurie Colwin’s Home Cooking is ‘the one true kitchen friend’ (The Washington Post), a modern classic that weaves together memories recipes, and wild tales of years spent in the kitchen….. Hilarious, personal, and full of hard-won expertise.”
