About

Creative, doable recipes from the brothers who are "on their way to becoming the scruffy avatars of next-wave Brooklyn cuisine for a national audience" (Time Out New York).

Get into the kitchen. Use what's in there. And don't be worried about f'ing it up. James Beard Foundation Rising Star nominee Max Sussman and his partner in crime, Eli, are over perfection. They care about cooking good food that tastes like you made it. These Brooklyn brothers of über-hip New York establishments Roberta's and Mile End have a go-to, hands-dirty method for wannabe-kitchen-badasses. This is a cookbook-for real life.

Included are more than sixty killer recipes that demystify the cooking process for at-home chefs, especially young people just starting out. Combining years of elbow grease in the fiery bowels of restaurants, the Sussmans provide a plethora of tricks to make life in the kitchen easier and frankly, more fun. This new cookbook also re-creates some of their favorite comfort foods while growing up, as well as recipes with their origins in brotherly b.s. that wound up tasting delicious. The Sussmans have got the back of those who may be too freaked to pick up a cast-iron skillet and instead opt for cop-out take-out as a culinary standby. This is a Cookbook is designed to be a go-to kitchen companion with meals fit for one, two, or many, and features plans of attack for dinner shindigs. The best part? All of the recipes have easy-to-find ingredients that limit the prep time fuss-and can be prepared in small (read: shoebox) kitchens.
