Smitten Kitchen Every Day: Triumphant And Unfussy New Favorites

"The thing I love the most about the blog Smitten Kitchen isn’t the recipes – it’s the way Deb Perelman writes them. Equal parts tongue-in-cheek commentary and measuring instructions, Perelman’s style is relatable and fun. Her self-deprecating jokes are enough to make any novice cook feel comforted, and her well-thought-out recipe caveats will impress the most experienced baker. Perelman fills her latest cookbook with pages and pages of “real recipes for real people,” as it says on the inside cover. I trust her to give me a great recipe for just about anything, and when a friend gives me a rave review, I tell them, “Deb hasn’t let me down yet.”"
