Event
A Cooks and Books Evening with Amanda Hesser, Author of The Essential New York Times Cookbook
New York Times food columnist and award-winning author Amanda Hesser brings her incomparable wit and expertise to revising and updating all 1,100+ recipes from Claiborne's classic (1961) New York Times Cookbook. As she has been doing in her New York Times column for years, Hesser takes a classic recipe from the original book (1940's Caesar Salad or 1960's chocolate cake) reprints it and prints a new version alongside. In this way she has built a history of 150 years of American cooking--and now all collected in this one essential volume, to sit alongside Mastering the Art of French Cooking and How to Cook Everything Amanda Hesser is also the author of the award winning books Cooking for Mr. Latte, The Cook and the Gardener and edited the essay collection Eat, Memory. In 2009 she co-founded food52.com, the first online community cookbook and curated recipe base. Amanda will be interviewed on stage by food writing cohort Sara Dickerman about the extensive recipe testing/revision/reinvention process, her earlier books, column at the New York Times and her wildly popular online project food52.com.
