Synopsis

Queer Eye sensation and passionate cook Antoni Porowski inspires both newbies and knowledgeable cooks to get back into the kitchen.

Antoni Porowski, the food and wine guru on Netflix hit show Queer Eye, invites you to cook delicious dishes in his gorgeous first cookbook, Antoni in the Kitchen. With appealing openness, he shows cooks of all levels how to become more confident and casual in the kitchen. The verve and naturalness of his approach earned raves from the likes of GQ and the New York Times, which noted his dishes prove that 'sometimes simple is anything but simplistic.'

Some of the delicious recipes in this book are weeknight healthyish meals, while others are perfect for off-the-cuff entertaining. Visual stunners, they’re often composed of fewer than five ingredients. Whether Bastardized Easy Ramen; Malaysian Chili Shrimp; Roasted Carrots with Carrot-Top Pesto; or Salty Lemon Squares, all can be carried off with panache, even by beginners.

All recipes in this cookbook have been fully anglicized.

Antoni has a love of food equal to my own. From his Johnny's Queso Blanco (you can never go wrong with melted cheese) to his Polish Hangover Soup (I'm sure this will come in very handy) and all of his desserts, I can't wait to explore the mind and creativity of this extremely hot chef.
Antoni's culinary skills are prodigious, but what makes him special is the key ingredient that makes Queer Eye special: heart.
Full of enthusiasm, warmth, and joy. From the simplest radishes in pink-peppercorn butter to a classic grilled cheese with tomato bisque to an innovative turkey kefte, the book shows a knowledge of techniques and an intrepid spirit in the kitchen.
