Reviews"A must-have for aspiring home cooks. So many people come to me and ask what book they should buy if they want to 'learn how to cook.' Until now, there really hasn't been a book I could point them towards, but . . . Ali's book offers a range of approachable recipes to help inspire and encourage the aspiring home cook to get into the kitchen and just do it." --RealSimple.com "Forget the fancy cooking school--this book is all you need. If you're just beginning to cook . . . or even if you're an experienced cook who learned more from trial and error than formal training--Alison Cayne's new book will be a welcome and trustworthy companion." --Atlanta Journal-Constitution "Straightforward preparation instructions, stunning photographs (many step-by-step), and a cohesive graphic design that's easy to navigate. VERDICT: Encouraging and accessible, this collection would make a wonderful gift for anyone who's expressed an interest in learning to cook." -- Library Journal , starred review "Simple, clear graphic design makes the book approachable, and Cayne's straightforward, friendly directions give would-be cooks confidence. . . . This book will remain a staple in kitchens long after readers have mastered the basics of boiling an egg and searing a steak." -- Publishers Weekly , starred review "This [book] makes cooking feel much less overwhelming if you're a novice, or just want to get out of your roast-chicken rut and learn new techniques. Many cookbooks aimed at beginners are infantilizing; the language and tone here is smart and direct. . . . Approachable and stress-free." --Grub Street "Cayne brings both a teacher's mindset and a student's questions to The Haven's Kitchen Cooking School . Each chapter, based upon a type of ingredient or dish, imparts a core technique and master recipe. Beans and grains are a lesson in 'cooking with purpose'; soups teach the layering of flavors; salads composition, etc. The book's magazine-like layout makes learning knife skills, frying, poaching eggs, and more easy. Even the simpler recipes are saved from being basic. . . . The recipes for sauces and dressings add up to a complete arsenal of fresh basics." -- Bon Apptit , 11 Spring Cookbooks You'll Actually Cook From "Delicious, easy." --Vogue.com "Classical training without the tuition bill." --PureWow.com "Filled with invaluable lessons, recipes, guidance, and inspiration for cooks of all levels, this book is an undeniable asset for every kitchen!" --Gail Simmons, food expert, TV host, and author of Talking with My Mouth Full " The Haven's Kitchen Cooking School not only teaches the fundamentals of cooking but also shows you how to make the types of things you and yours really want to eat." --Julia Turshen, author of Small Victories "Defies the many stiff tomes in its category with succinct clarity [and] a you-can-do-this spirit. . . . It's cooking school for the real home kitchen, and lessons for a lifetime of good eating." --Amanda Hesser, cofounder and CEO of Food52 "If you have always dreamed of cooking--not just following recipes--this is the only book you will ever need." --Tom Colicchio, "Filled with invaluable lessons, recipes, guidance, and inspiration for cooks of all levels, this book is an undeniable asset for every kitchen!" --Gail Simmons, food expert, TV host, and author of Talking with My Mouth Full   " The Haven's Kitchen Cooking School not only teaches the fundamentals of cooking but also shows you how to make the types of things you and yours really want to eat." --Julia Turshen, author of Small Victories "Defies the many stiff tomes in its category with succinct clarity [and] a you-can-do-this spirit. . . .
