Joshua Weissman: An Unapologetic Cookbook.
A Weissman once said…
“…can we please stop with the barrage of 2.3-second meals that only need one ingredient? I get it…we’re busy. But let’s refocus on that beautifully crafted burgers don’t grow on trees.”
Ironically,, this sounds like he’s trying to convince you to cook, but he’s not. Is this selling the cookbook? The point is that the food in this book is an invitation that speaks for itself. Extraordinary cooking does, and should, take time. Now is the time to double down and get your head in the cooking game. Or, you know, don’t. Maybe get someone else to cook this stuff for you…that works, too.
How can you know if something is your favorite if 50 to 80 percent of the stuff you’ve been eating was made by someone else? Butter, condiments, cheese, pickles, patties, and buns. For a superior and potentially even life-changing experience, you can (and should, to be honest) make these from scratch. Create the building blocks necessary to make the most fantastic meal of your life.
