A special and original book for anyone wanting to make better food
The new Joy of Cooking for a globally minded generation of curious cooks. [El-Waylly] dispenses the wisdom of a professional chef with none of the ego, delivering cooking fundamentals in a voice that balances self-deprecation, science and just enough cheerleading to guide both the novice and the veteran through complex projects, like saffron-stained tahdig, or simpler pursuits, like a whole broiled fish with limey cabbage slaw or beginner’s drop cookies with Fritos and marshmallows.
With over 200 meticulously-crafted recipes, Start Here is a comprehensive guide that caters to chefs of all levels, with a strong focus on skill-building.
‘Delia Smith for the TikTok generation’ is a bold statement, but this fun cookbook from chef Sohla El-Waylly is exactly how it’s described: 150 recipes to help younger cooks and bakers become more confident in the kitchen. It’s packaged up with engaging and brilliantly named chapters, such as ‘Temperature Management 101’ and ‘Break it Down and Get Saucy’, making it the perfect Christmas stocking filler for budding chefs.
Clear, funny, smart, and necessary. There are more than 200 recipes ... but even more exciting is the depth of technical knowledge packed into its pages. Each chapter is set up like a culinary lesson, ensuring you don’t just memorize the recipes but rather learn the tools that will allow you to create great food in your kitchen for the rest of your life.
Start Here has so much to offer home cooks, whether they're just getting to grips with making their first recipes, or are more confident and a few more years down the line with their cooking experience. The combination of creative but not intimidating recipes and engaging sections on various kitchen skills means that there's always something new to learn from Sohla, and the warmth and knowledge in her cooking that everyone knows and loves her for comes through on every page ... I think this is a book that people will come back to for years to come (like Delia's How To Cook for people who grew up with the internet) and I can see it being a fixture on my kitchen bookshelves for the foreseeable future.
Sohla’s book is sure to inspire and delight. She manages to teach basic techniques while still using elevated flavours so even a novice home cook will attain both confidence and delicious results.
A foundational behemoth of a book (656 pages!) in the school of J. Kenji López-Alt’s The Food Lab and Samin Nosrat’s Salt, Fat, Acid, Heat . . . Every home cook will find something to learn in Start Here.
Sohla breaks down cooking in a way that's elemental yet approachable. She is the patient friend, the seasoned guide, the doting mentor you want in the kitchen. This book will not only teach you the principles of good cooking but also boost your confidence, allowing you to freestyle it in the kitchen like a master. There's something for everyone in this future classic. Buy this book now!
El-Waylly distills takeaways from her time in cooking school, years-long tenure at restaurants, and her experience as a Bon Appétit staffer to bring home cooks the foundations they need to be more confident in the kitchen . . . This cookbook is the mirror I wish I had as a student in culinary school . . . With each recipe, technique overview, and the stories within, El-Waylly makes the unattainable achievable in more ways than one.
Where was this book when I first started cooking? . . . Jam-packed with science-backed tips and techniques to help folks develop their cooking intuition, and I have no doubt a copy of the book would have saved me from many sad, under-seasoned meals . . . You'll leave feeling more comfortable in the kitchen.
Both knowledgeable as hell and an incredibly good teacher . . . This is a cookbook you read and then keep on hand, referencing whenever you have a question, want to master a basic, or take a particular skill to the next level.
Anything Sohla tells me to do, I listen to
The book is like an awesome master class. Each chapter teaches you one core cooking or baking technique, like how to stew and braise, and has a list of recipes to help you practice that lesson. It’s not JUST recipes, people!
With the focus just as much on the techniques as the recipes, this cookbook will be invaluable for readers who are getting started cooking. The recipes will motivate them to get in the kitchen, but experienced cooks and bakers will relish the abundance of information and interesting recipes too.
Whether you're just embarking on your culinary journey or have been navigating the kitchen for years seeking that extra flair, this book promises to be an invaluable companion. Overflowing with insightful tips and techniques to elevate your dishes, Start Here is a treasure trove of culinary wisdom. And as if that weren't enough, it boasts 200 tantalizing recipes to experiment with and savor. In essence, this book is akin to having a fabulous chef and culinary school right at your fingertips, offering both the foundation and finesse every home chef craves.
It really succeeds at making every aspect of the process feel very fun. Even the font and design are maximally appealing. If you want to start baking bread, master your egg game, make braising a second nature, or become a caramelization beast, your road to success lies within. (Or, if you just want a bunch of killer soup, veg, pasta, and protein recipes from an online chef you love, those are here as well.) Come holiday season, definitely keep this one in mind—it’s a perfect gift for a partner, friend, parent, or just yourself.
offers a practical yet approachable guide on how to be a better cook ... From temperature management to everything you could ever want to know about butter, this book is perfect for those looking to better understand cooking or as a gift for the foodie in your life.
