An essential collection of more than 100 foolproof recipes from food luminaries such as Julia Child, Alice Waters, and David Chang--curated, introduced, and photographed by the team behind the leading food website Food52.

This debut title from Food52 Works, a new imprint from Ten Speed Press, draws from Food52's James Beard Award-nominated Genius Recipes column, which features inventive recipes that rethink cooking tropes and, simply put, are nothing short of genius. In this inspired book for the modern cook, Food52's executive editor Kristen Miglore combines new genius recipes, greatest hits from the column, and her own kitchen wisdom in a sleek, lushly illustrated package.

Plus with abundant how-to and finished dish photographs throughout, Genius Recipes is destined to become every home cook's go-to reference for smart, enjoyable cooking.

About this title

Review:

A New York Times Best Seller

"Culled from chefs, bloggers and food world legends like Julia Child and James Beard, these are dishes that are so smart they'll change the way you approach food, making you a better cook." - Editors from Tasting Table's "Kitchen Bookshelf

"Food52 Genius Recipes, is the hands-down winner of the dog-eared page contest -- because it instantly dismisses what might be the most important question asked by a cook confronting a new recipe. Namely, will this work? Of course it will. How do we know? Because the dishes in this collection are genius, here defined as legacy recipes 'handed down by luminaries of the food world.'" - Jenny Rosenstrach, New York Times editor

"None of the recipes are overly "chefy," which makes this book a great choice for beginner cooks." - Joanne Smart, Senior Editor at Fine Cooking

"Guaranteed to excite and enlighten cooks everywhere, Miglore's collection is a must-have for every kitchen."
- Publishers Weekly Starred Review

"This is my new favorite cookbook." - Michael Ruhlman
