"Raghavan Iyer has published some of the most inspiring Indian cookbooks on the market, but here the beloved author and teacher has eyes only for the humble spud. It’s not the first single-subject potato book ever, but it is surely the most exuberant: hot potatoes with cinnamon malt vinegar, steamed potato-chive buns and, of course, french fries so crisp and true they’ll reduce you to tears. In one magical transformation after another, the starch for all seasons reveals itself in crackly, creamy, crumbly, savory, comforting guises, each made possible and brought to your own kitchen by one of the most genial and capable cooking evangelists of our time."
