Knife Drop: Creative Recipes Anyone Can Cook

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.

Awesome book
LOVE IT! Great recipe book, my son originally wanted it to start learning how to cook with it. After receiving it I went through the recipes to see what it had and saw so many favorite dishes that I loved. I was more excited about the book more than he was lol. Great collection to add to our arsenal :o)

Easy to use
Great product.

息子がニックさんのファンで購入。一番最初に作ったのはランチドレッシング。ボトルのを使っていたけれど、無くなったのでこちらのレシピ本見ながら作ってみた。日本にいるとバターミルクを手に入れるのは難しいけど、代用したりして作ってみた。新鮮なディル使うだけでこんな違うんかー！とびっくり。思わずペバロニピザ買ってきて完食した。その日からピザ食べるときは必ずレシピ本見てドレッシング作ってから食べる。市販とは香りが違うし、美味しかったなあ。分量とかレシピ見るとすごく繊細な配合が多々みられるので、ニックさんの味覚は素晴らしいのだろうなと思う。

Mega. Syn uwielbia. Świetne przepisy. Polecam

My son asked for this cookbook for Christmas. He had watched Nick’s recipes being prepared online and really liked him and his recipes. My son has prepared several of the recipes already and they have turned out fabulously. Love the design of the cookbook, the ease of the recipes and how delicious they are highly recommend.
