In Praise of Home Cooking

Fit for anyone looking to perfect the staples, parents who want to whip up something tasty, curious kids who want to learn grandma's secret recipes, and everyone who has gotten tired of those absurdly labor-intensive recipes.To Krissoff, perfecting uncomplicated recipes and kitchen habits?such as learning to roast a whole chicken and use it for several days' worth of meals, to cook a pot of creamy beans and one of fluffy rice, or to preserve foods when they're abundant?is essential to living hopefully and with great pleasure.
