A Tasting Table Best New Cookbook for Beginners

"Kanell excels at giving home cooks ideas on how to turn last night's leftovers into a fresh new meal and also gives a brilliant explainer on ingredients and the kitchen tools you'll need. For a dinner, dessert, or snack that looks award-winning but is easy enough for beginners, look no further." —Tasting Table

"A go-to for busy home cooks looking to spice up their repertoire." —Publishers Weekly (starred review)

The New York Times bestselling author and beloved social media star @PreppyKitchen delivers simple, everyday recipes that anyone can cook regardless of cooking level or busy schedule that is sure to delight the whole family.
John Kanell is beloved for his aspirational lifestyle and food recipes that feed the eye first. As his kids get older and life gets busier, John recognizes the need that all busy families have for food that is at once practical to prepare and delicious.

Preppy Kitchen Super Easy was born of that need. He's created a cookbook of simple dishes that feel special. With particular attention to variations for nearly every recipe, John makes it easy to prepare any dish at any time. Ran out of mayo? Use sour cream in the Ranch and Feta Dip. Need to use up those tomatoes and peppers before they go to waste? Swap 'em for the cukes in the Wild Rice Salad. In each recipe, John breaks down instructions with simple steps, streamlines ingredient lists, and gives dozens of ideas for riffs and make-aheads. John explains how easy it is to vary vessels with a single recipe: a quick bread or cake can bake in a muffin tin, a baking dish, or a cake pan; pancake batter is good for a waffle maker or a griddle. He leans into a small cache of hands-off appliances such as the Instant Pot™ and air fryer. And, best of all, he's developed recipes you can make once and eat all week, along with dressings and spreads that morph from snack-time dip to salad accompaniment to just-add-a-protein main dish.

Recipes include:
-Breakfast: Breakfast in a Cup, Breakfast Burritos, "Ice Cream" Overnight Oats
-Main dishes with hands-off cook time: Skillet Steak with Garlic-Herb Butter, Cream Cheese and Caraway-Stuffed Salmon, and Crispy Orange-Glazed Chicken Strips
-Easy sides to elevate the simplest of main dishes: Browned Butter and Garlic Mashed Potatoes
-Favorite snacks and small bites for grazing throughout the day: Bruschetta Dip, Grape and Tarragon Chicken Salad, Mango and Radish Shrimp Ceviche
-Quick and easy delicious desserts: Brian's Favorite Chocolate Cake, Slice and Bake Shortbread Cookies, and Chocolate Chunk Pecan Pie Bars

Regardless of your skill level or busy schedule, you will find these recipes quick and easy to make any time of day.

      Kanell (Preppy Kitchen) and his Preppy Kitchen enterprise have become an online phenomenon with over 10 million subscribers. His second book is a solid representation of his approach and brand. From the first page, readers are swept away by the stunning photography that lures them in to eat with their eyes and dive into the delights of the offerings. Early chapters outline ingredients and equipment lists along with some easy items to keep on hand to save time. The array of recipe categories takes readers from make-ahead pancake and waffle mix to crispy orange-glazed chicken to no-churn homemade ice cream and everything in between. The book covers a large variety of options that will help cooks feel they are putting something delicious and appealing on their tables, highlighting different cooking devices such as air fryers, slow cookers, and instant pots. Kanell assumes a certain level of kitchen skill and the ability to have ingredients on hand, which may be off-putting for some. VERDICT An attractive and practical resource for everyday cooks, but it might be slightly out of reach for newer cooks and those on a budget.--Ron Block

      Starred review from July 15, 2024
      Bestseller Kanell follows up Preppy Kitchen with an impressive and memorable collection of flavor-packed recipes made with minimal fuss. Plenty of sweet and savory options—including skillet steaks with garlic-herb butter, balsamic-roasted zucchini and chickpeas with soft cheese, and piña colada macaroons—are quick enough that they can easily be prepared on weeknights. Other dishes, such as overnight cinnamon rolls, Cuban-style pork roast, and grilled peaches with honeyed ricotta, require extra time, but instructions are a breeze to follow. Throughout, Kanell shares dozens of suggestions for adapting the recipes to suit a variety of preferences. For example, there are instructions for making the crispy orange-glazed chicken strips in either the oven or the air fryer, and readers can swap out gouda and thyme in the drop biscuits for crumbled feta and dill or pepper jack and basil. Sidebars offer tips and tricks (apple cider or unsalted broth can be used in place of whiskey for the whiskey-glazed chicken thighs) and boost confidence (for best results on the seared scallops with browned butter linguine, Kanell advises readers to look for dry sea scallops). This will be a go-to for busy home cooks looking to spice up their repertoire. Agent: Janis Donnaud, Janis A. Donnaud & Assoc.
