Product Description
Product Description
A young American chef's fresh new interpretation of beloved Mediterranean cuisine, "Matthew Kenney's Mediterranean Cooking" is a masterful blend of tradition, passion, and creativity. Celebrated chef Matthew Kenney opened his restaurant, Matthew's, to instant critical acclaim, including a listing in the Zagat guide as one of the top five Mediterranean restaurants in New York City. Recently, he was named a Rising Star Chef in America by PBS. And now with this seminal new cookbook, he shares his signature style of relaxed Mediterranean cooking with 150 wonderful dishes anyone can prepare at home. Relying on widely available ingredients and simplified cooking techniques, Kenney makes it possible for busy cooks everywhere to enjoy the sensuous culinary traditions of the Mediterranean coastal rim, from the hill towns of Spain and Italy to the sun-baked villages of North Africa. A new classic is born.

Something for everyone!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Matthew Kenney's Mediterranean Cooking (Hardcover)
With recipes easy enough for beginners and interesting enough for seasoned (no pun intended) gourmands, this book is one I keep going back to time after time. This book also makes a great gift, as it is as attractive as it is usable. I'm here in the heart of America's Dairyland, but Matthew's Olive Oil Mashed Potatoes could almost make me give up butter!

Beautifully done,

This review is from: Matthew Kenney's Mediterranean Cooking (Hardcover)
My husband bought me this book, and I love it! The recipes are easy to follow, and the pictures are great. It's a fun book to go through, and Kenney adds a lot of personal touches. It's one of my favorite mediterranean cookbooks. Try the Sicilian Rice Salad with Tuna and Mint. It's one of my favorites.

Yum Yum! Great for both experienced and inexperienced cooks!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Matthew Kenney's Mediterranean Cooking (Hardcover)
Not only is this book beautiful to look at and hold, with great pictures and graphics (some of the pictures are works of art in and of themselves!) and lovely paper, it also has really great recipes, with clear, easy to follow directions. The VERY best part about it for me, though, is the sections running along the edges of each page, where the chef talks about various ingredients in each recipe, and how that ingredient fits in with other things, and how to combine this dish with other dishes and flavors. This is not just a book of recipes, it is a guide to mediterranean cooking in general, and much of it reads like a good novel. You can sit down and just read it, for fun, and when you are finished, you will have an understanding of the flavors and textures of the food, and how to work with them on your own to create meals. It's a great gift (even for yourself!), both beautiful and informative. Even if you have never been to Matthew's restaurant in New York, you'll love this book!
