The Gourmet Bachelor: Global Flavor, Local Ingredients Cookbook
Bachelor cookbooks have changed! The demand for quick and easy recipes has not. Do you love a juicy burger but also crave Sushi, Thai, Spanish Tapas, Korean steak BBQ or butter-poached lobster with a spicy glass of wine?
Chad Carns put his award-winning, graphic design career on hold to study global cuisine and wine at the Institute of Culinary Education and to craft The Gourmet Bachelor: Global Flavor, Local Ingredients cookbook. Carns brings exciting global dishes to your home in minutes. Elegantly designed with vivid photography and slick black pages, The Gourmet Bachelor cookbook includes simple cooking instructions with basic ingredients found at your local market. Become the wine expert at your next cocktail party after you read the essential wine guide. Enjoy a wine, beer, sake, cocktail or small-batch bourbon pairing for each recipe.
Chad explains how to sear meat and seafood like a restaurant chef in 5 easy steps when he describes How to Achieve the Perfect Sear. If you're just learning how to sear, chop or saute -- no worries -- just turn to the glossary of gourmet terms.
Wake up to Orange-Scented Ricotta Pancakes, ease into Lobster Club stacked with creamy avocado and double-thick bacon or just slurp your way through spicy Singapore Noodles. Impress your Friday night date with a classic Parmesan-Crusted Rack of Lamb followed by a effortless, Chocolate Souffle. Having a cocktail party? Try Moroccan Chicken Rolls drizzled with honey or Corn-Crusted Crab Cakes, Avocado Mash and smoky Roasted Red Pepper Sauce. The Gourmet Bachelor cookbook offers a culinary-roller coaster of exciting, global recipes for any occasion.
"Greenwich Village has been my home for over a decade. As I walk down Bleecker St--like a magnet--I'm hit with the intoxicating aromas of garlic, olive oil, fresh seafood, ginger, bacon, coconut curry & saffron. Braised short ribs catch my olfactory sense as I pass my favorite Korean BBQ place until I walk down Houston St to meet Italian pork shoulder roasting from the open doors of my local rustic Italian trattoria. My daily epicurean journey ends with a familiar stool at the local Spanish wine bar on MacDougal when I ask Jorge for a glass of spicy Rioja and a plate of thinly sliced Chorizo. My daily walk to the West 4th St subway station inspired me to write a new recipe every day. I hope my cookbook inspires you to enjoy the exciting flavors of Greenwich Village as much as I do." --Chad Carns, Cookbook Author, The Gourmet Bachelor: Global Flavor, Local Ingredients
