Casey's recipes tread a brilliant line between tradition and whimsy, reviving old family recipes (like the ultimate custard-like French toast) while pushing his favorite childhood sweetener into new territory (as with miso-maple chicken wings). This Short Stack edition is the ultimate reminder that maple goes way beyond a short stack.

Casey Elsass is the founder and maker of Bees Knees Spicy Honey, Trees Knees Spicy Syrup and Weak Knees Gochujang Sriracha. His culinary journey started at the age of six, when he climbed up on the kitchen counter to pour a little of everything from the spice cabinet into a Scooby-Doo cup of warm water, and he’s been playing with his food ever since. After high school, he moved to New York City, where he worked as an usher at the Metropolitan Opera, an assistant to a celebrity psychic, a copywriter for Shania Twain’s perfume line and a furniture mover before following his heart back into the kitchen. This is his first cookbook.
