Colu Henry has been working in food for more than 15 years, and from her time at publications from Bon Appétit to the New York Times, she’s learned that what resonates with her readers is her always unfussy and empowering recipes. In this cookbook–a nod to home cooks who are happy to do everything but pastry-Henry helps readers assemble an amply stocked new-American pantry so that they can perfect (and build upon) classic everyday meals.
