Publisher's note

In this highly ambitious and accomplished work, which spans the globe, Mark Bittman gathers the best recipes that people cook every day on every continent in the world. And when he brings his immensely popular no-frills approach to dishes that might previously have been considered “exotic,” cooks gladly follow where they once feared to tread.

Bittman, in more than one thousand recipes, shows American cooks that there are so many other places besides Italy or France to turn to for inspiration. Asian food now rivals European cuisine’s popularity, and this book reflects that: it’s the first to give equal emphasis to European and Asian cuisine, and the easy-to-follow recipes for such favorites as Stir-Fried Vegetables with Nam Pla from Vietnam, Pad Thai from Thailand, Salmon Teriyaki from Japan, Black Bean and Garlic Spareribs from China, and Tandoori Chicken from India will be a hit with home cooks looking to add exciting new tastes and cosmopolitan flair to their everyday cooking. In addition, other less-familiar cuisines such as Turkish, Spanish, and Mexican are also explored in depth.


Shop locally, cook globally–Mark Bittman makes it so easy:

• Many recipes can be made ahead or prepared in under thirty minutes

• More than one hundred line drawings

• Sidebars and instructional drawings make unfamiliar techniques a snap

• 52 international menus, information on ingredients, and much more make this an essential addition to any cook’s shelf


The Best Recipes in the World is destined to be a classic that will change the way Americans think about everyday food. It’s simply like no other cookbook in the world.

Annotation

Venturing around the world, Mark Bittman brings together a slew of exotic recipes and makes them available for home cooks. Bittman is a highly experienced chef and, more importantly, recipe writer (his modestly titled HOW TO COOK EVERYTHING was, deservedly, a best seller), and here he communicates clearly and efficiently exactly what is needed to produce stellar results. Recipes include Vietnamese Stir-Fried Vegetables, Black Bean and Garlic Spareribs from China, Chicken Paella with Mushrooms from Spain, a Roast Leg of Lamb with Thyme and Orange from Greece, Russian Borscht, a Swedish Appletorte, Indian Tandoori Chicken, and the North African soup known as Harira.
