American Cuisine The Inn at Little Washington by Patrick O'Connell
Selecting The Inn at Little Washington as one of the top ten restaurants in the world, O'Connell is hailed as "a rare chef with a sense of near-perfect taste, like a musician with perfect pitch." As a self-taught chef who learned to cook by reading cookbooks, he has a unique ability to write recipes that are easy to follow and that produce delicious results.
In this groundbreaking work, Refined American Cuisine, O'Connell celebrates the coming-of-age of American cooking and illustrates that we at last have our own equivalent to the haute cuisine of the great chefs of Europe. He manages to demonstrate that reproducing his versions of refined American cuisine is not only surprisingly doable but often easier than replicating the classic American dishes we grew up with.
Features such recipes as:
All the recipes use readily available ingredients and are written in a clear, easy-to-follow manner. But even more refreshing than the delectable recipes are O'Connell's musings on his upbringing, American food, and entertaining.
Cooking from Refined American Cuisine is the next best thing to dining at The Inn at Little Washington.
