Overview
Award-winningĀ chefsĀ and bestselling authors ofĀ the James Beard AwardāwinningĀ Zahav,Ā Michael Solomonov and Steven Cook invite you to cook the way they do at home, with 125 new recipes for simple and achievable meals.
Since opening Zahav (the beloved, award-winning, and critically acclaimed restaurant in Philadelphia that serves a powerfully flavorful menu inspired by modern Israeli cuisine) fifteen years ago, co-owners chef Michael Solomonov and Steven Cook have learned at least two things: cooking at home isnāt anything like cooking at the restaurant, and, how to bring Zahavās signature ideas to the home kitchen.Ā
As busy fathers, Mike and Steve have also learned that thinking ahead is key. Their secret: a strategically stocked pantry. Then itās nothing, for example, to slather amba from a jar onto a spatchcocked chicken for an almost-instant roast chicken dinner, or to cook a leg of lamb coated with harissa (also from a jar!) in one potāon a school night! When they make soups, with all the intense flavors they use at the restaurant, they make a lot of soup, always thinking of the freezer and those busy nights when thereās no time to cook.
Even more thanĀ Zahav,Ā their trailblazing first book,Ā Zahav HomeĀ is a truly intimate affairāan invitationĀ rightĀ intoĀ Mike's and Steve'sĀ home kitchens, with recipes tried and tested byĀ them andĀ their families. The 125 all-new recipesĀ in this bookĀ include robust salads, abundant vegetables,Ā hearty soups,Ā easyĀ lunches,Ā and weeknight meals that tasteĀ as if they took hours to make.Ā There areĀ Sunday dinners, unforgettable desserts, and more, including:
