About this title

Synopsis

Bon Apetit named Greek the 'cuisine of the year' in 2008 and Michael Psilakis is the standout star of Greek cooking. He is the owner of a growing empire of modern Mediterranean restaurants, including the only Michelin star-rated Greek restaurant in America, New York City's Anthos. In HOW TO ROAST A LAMB, the brilliant, self-taught Psilakis offers recipes from his restaurants and his home in his much-anticipated first cookbook. Filled with heartfelt stories from his childhood and of his growth as a chef, HOW TO ROAST A LAMB is a personal and irresistible introduction to this vibrant way of cooking. Psilakis's cooking utilizes the fresh, naturally healthful ingredients of the Mediterranean augmented by techniques that define New American cuisine. Home cooks who have gravitated toward Italian cookbooks for the simple, user-friendly dishes, satisfying flavours and comfortable, family-oriented meals, will welcome Psilakis's approach to Greek food, which is similarly healthy, affordable and satisfying to share any night of the week.
