Honestly probably the most fun and practical cookbook I’ve read in a while. I love Priya’s asides as she tries to condense David’s ramblings into printed form, and how both of them talk the reader through the process of cooking, teaching that it’s more about adapting recipes to your taste than recreating them exactly, and along the way you learn how their separate backgrounds shaped their differing and evolving tastes in food. I am a pretty confident home cook and I still learned a lot of great shortcuts from this book – David and Priya are professional chefs but reading this was like just hanging out with other home cooks, swapping tips you’ve picked up along the way, and sharing recipes you learned from your moms.
