About this title

Review:

In his previous books Bold American Food and Boy Meets Grill, among others, chef and Food Network favorite Bobby Flay tempts readers with excitingly flavored food. Bobby Flay Cooks American, written with Julia Moskin, furthers the culinary cause with 125 new recipes. Though the recipes often require a kitchen commitment, they're easy enough to do at home. Cooks willing to take the plunge will please those they feed with enticing food.

In chapters that cover courses and dish types from soups and chowders through salads, entrees, sides, and desserts, Flay presents his "new American regional" cooking. Standouts among these include Baby Back Ribs with Mustard Molasses Barbecue Sauce and Fulton Fish Market Cioppino. Brunch dishes, sandwiches, and tacos also receive their due with recipes like Little Havana-Style Cuban Sandwiches, while corn, pasta, and rice are represented by the likes of Crawfish Lasagna and Spanish Red Rice with Roasted Salt-and-Pepper Shrimp. "For the first time I've included menus with recipes for my two favorite holidays," says Flay, presenting Thanksgiving and Fourth of July dishes such as his Roast Turkey with Pomegranate-Black Pepper Glaze and Fresh Sage-Smoked Chile Gravy and Slow-Barbecued Texas Brisket with Bourbon Barbecue Sauce. Desserts, such as Warm Coconut-Filled Chocolate Cakes and Maple Custard with Gingersnaps, round out the repertoire. Illustrated with color photos and containing technique information, the book makes an enticing addition to Flay's culinary Americana. --Arthur Boehm
