The authors of College Cooking guide you on your next step to adulting: shopping for, preparing, and eating your own meals—in your own kitchen.
Every year, tens of thousands of hungry twentysomethings graduate college and rent their first apartment. They love food and want to learn how to cook. The First Real Kitchen Cookbook is the just-graduated’s go-to guide, explaining in a friendly, encouraging voice everything that can be done on a tiny four-burner stove with minimal equipment and utensils. Fellow twentysomethings Megan Carle and Jill Carle teach new cooks how to stock a pantry on the cheap, buy meat, roast a chicken, cook vegetables, and bake cakes from scratch—all the basics and more!
“Sure, this is for those of you just setting up your ‘first real kitchen,’ but guess what? There is a lot of helpful information for those of us who’ve had our own kitchens for years. We can all use a little help now and then . . .” —Cooks & Books & Recipes
“A great cookbook for someone who doesn’t have much experience cooking, but wants to get a real start on the subject.” —Errant Dreams
