Home Cooking

A unique feast for body and soul, this book shares the delightful pleasures of discovering, cooking and eating good, simple food. Colwin combines her insightful, good-humored writing style with her lifelong passion for wonderful food in essays such as Alone in the Kitchen with an Eggplant, Repulsive Dinners: A Memoir and Stuffed Breast of Veal: A Bad Idea. This classic Colwin collection is as much memoir as cookbook and as much about eating as cooking. "” New York Times Book Review
