Knife Drop: Creative Recipes Anyone Can Cook

Product Information

The Table of Contents points us to lots of basics and building blocks as well as techniques, hints and a ‘sauce library’. One thing I particularly like, and I don’t know whether to credit the author or the publisher for this, is that every single recipe in the book is accompanied by an attractive full-page illustration so you can see exactly what each dish is supposed to look like.

I don’t doubt that this guy is a great cook, but something went wrong with producing this cookbook in my opinion. The first cookbook of celebrity chef and Masterchef US finalist Nick DiGiovanni, Knife Drop is a beautifully produced glossy paged edition. Compost’ takes on a new meaning in Nick’s cookie recipe, the accompanying photo showing a single cookie bearing hand emerging from a bed of pretzels, chips and smarties AKA pantry ‘compost’. Home-cooked food doesn’t have to be over-the-top, fussy, or time-intensive to be absolutely amazing. I really hope she’s planning a sequel, but with pizza (and please HMU if you need help testing ‘em).My goal with these videos is to pass along all the best tips I've gotten, and most importantly, teach you to love cooking as much as I do.

Nick DiGiovanni is a chef, food content creator, and world record holder for numerous food-related feats. Lately, however, I spend my time trying to enjoy life, which entails a lot of cooking, entertaining, staying active, and taking in our world’s great cinema (aka browsing Maangchi cooking videos and rewatching Girls). Welcome to Flavor Zone, a monthly column in which your kitchen-savvy VICE editors recommend the tastiest, juiciest, most appetizing new cookbooks on the shelves. A new edition of 2019’s immensely popular food gardening guide, Veg in One Bed is the perfect volume for anyone interested in growing produce throughout the year.

On that note, with my ever-growing collection, I’m getting close to needing David Harbour’s massive, hall-length shelves (as well as his body and life). Yes, he’s drop dead gorgeous, and the first one or two times the knife hits the chopping board in one of his reels we take a short gasp, but after that, we feel more blasé than entertained.
