The much-anticipated cookbook from Brooklyn's coolest and most influential Michelin-starred restaurantIn his debut cookbook, Nick Curtola teaches home cooks how to take their cooking from mundane to transcendent by offering not a trick nor a hack but a hard-earned lesson gleaned from decades of trial and error in the kitchen.
In his signature Italian-by-way-of-Northern California groove, Curtola shares 100 recipes, all touched with his signature approach to simplicity and seasonality. Recipes include: beef short ribs tenderized in a creamy-sweet shio koji marinade that adds sweetness and umami; a simple salad of sliced mandarin oranges with toasted sesame oil but with chopped cilantro stems added (yes, just the stems.); and carbonara, which, meanwhile, incorporates the Italian fish sauce colatura-once you have a bottle on hand, all it takes is a few drops to add stunning depth to a classic dish. And to make sure readers can drink as well at home as they can in the restaurant, Four Horsemen cofounder Justin Chearno provides an uncommonly unpretentious overview of the knowledge that's made him one of the country's most influential figures in wine.
The Four Horsemen's serious emphasis on maximizing pleasure shines through on each page, and with Curtola's simple kitchen techniques and Chearno's killer wine advice, Dinner with the Four Hoursemen will transform any home cook's dining room into a high-class restaurant experience.
