I promise if you cook something from this cookbook, it will receive nothing but praise from me!" —Gordon Ramsay, from the foreword Forget the rules and get cooking with flavor-forward recipes from celebrity chef and social media superstar Nick DiGiovanni! Home-cooked food doesn’t need to be over-the-top, fussy, or time-consuming to be amazing. In Knife Drop, Nick DiGiovanni gives you the tools to become fearless in the kitchen and create easy, delicious meals. Building on a foundation of staple recipes, like basic pasta dough or homemade butter, Nick shares a mouthwatering selection of his favorite recipes. Feast on New England favorites like Browned Butter Lobster Rolls and Garlic Butter Steak Tips, enjoy decadent pasta dishes like Smoky Mezcal Rigatoni and Sungold Spaghetti, and recreate fan favorites like his Viral Pasta Chips and Dino Nuggets. And of course, Nick had to include some “collab” recipes from his famous friends like Andrew Zimmern, Robert Irvine, Joanne Chang, Lynja, and more. Knife Drop also includes Nick’s expert advice on equipment, ingredients, and techniques, so home cooks at any level can pick up some new skills. Explore a library of QR codes linking to video tutorials showcasing key cooking techniques, from holding a chef’s knife and making a piping bag to pronouncing “gnocchi” the correct way. These are creative recipes ANYONE can cook! Review: Best cookbook I've seen in a long time! - Although I do remember Nick from Master Chef, I haven't been following him on YouTube or Tiktok, so I bought his cookbook without really knowing much about his cooking style past what I saw on TV, but it popped up on desertcart and the recipes appealed to me. I'm so glad desertcart recommended Nicks cookbook! It's not only beautifully photographed and so well organized, I want to make literally EVERY recipe right now! Nothing overly complicated, but everything with a unique twist. I mean can we just talk about the brilliance of turning Eggs Benedict into a SANDWICH!?!?!? This cookbook is packed with good solid cooking techniques and delicious ingredients. Nicks personality shines through even the most concise of the head notes. I'm very excited to work my way through Knife Drop. Also, chuckling at the soup chapter (or lack thereof). Edited to add: I made the browned butter chocolate chip cookies and while they're weren't the quickest cookie recipe I've ever made, the extra effort was 1000% worth it. They're absolutely delicious and the instructions were very easy to follow. Lisa Steele Author of The Fresh Eggs Daily Cookbook Review: A most pleasant surprise - The author is apparently some kind of social media star, delivering cooking videos to legions of fans. I admit, I didn’t know his work prior to reading this book. But when I stumbled across the book itself, I found it rather intriguing. The theme here seems to be interesting, creative, restaurant-quality types of dishes, but which can be (relatively) easily prepared by home cooks in a home kitchen. Admittedly, some of the recipes live up to that promise a bit better than others. To be sure, there are several recipes in here that look just as impressive as anything you might find in a Michelin-starred restaurant, but with relatively simple ingredients and techniques accessible to home chefs. But there are also a couple that don’t quite hit that “impressive” mark or which might be a bit more intimidating to the home cook. But that’s not to say those recipes are necessarily bad or failures by any means. And despite a couple maybe not quite hitting the same theme as the rest of the book, I consider the book on the whole quite a success. One thing I particularly like, and I don’t know whether to credit the author or the publisher for this, is that every single recipe in the book is accompanied by an attractive full-page illustration so you can see exactly what each dish is supposed to look like. Admittedly, that means there’s not room for quite as many recipes in here, but I find it makes for a more attractive, and indeed more useful, cookbook. As for the recipes themselves, I’m quite pleased to report that the vast majority of them look like something I’d actually like to cook and/or eat. Obviously everyone’s tastes are different so no cookbook ever manages to be 100% for anyone (except perhaps its own author), but this one is closer aligned to my tastes than most. And I particularly like a book that combines some sophisticated classy recipes with some that are more comfort food. And I have to admit, what really caught my eye is that this book even includes a recipe to make your own home-made dino nuggies. I’m pretty sure that means this is an author who knows what his audience wants. On that note of speaking to his audience, this might also be the perfect cookbook for the social media age because not only is the author apparently a social media cooking star of some sort, but he’s also included QR codes throughout the book leading the reader to videos demonstrating how to prepare some (not all) of the recipes. Honestly, I didn’t know what to expect from this book, but now that I’ve read it, I can see why Gordon Ramsay was willing to put his name on it and supply a foreword. This is really an excellent cookbook. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #2,489 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #1 in Gourmet Cooking (Books) #3 in New England Cooking, Food & Wine #6 in Christmas Cooking | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 3,139 Reviews | ## Images ![Knife Drop: Creative Recipes Anyone Can Cook - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81Sw-GMfMWL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Media Format** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best cookbook I've seen in a long time! *by A***A on June 15, 2023* Although I do remember Nick from Master Chef, I haven't been following him on YouTube or Tiktok, so I bought his cookbook without really knowing much about his cooking style past what I saw on TV, but it popped up on Amazon and the recipes appealed to me.
