Do you love good food but hate Martha Stewart? Do you wish Julia Child had been just a little bit more like Tom Waits? Do you sometimes just want to get past all the preciousness and cook a non-obnoxious meal that really doesnÕt suck? And maybe actually enjoy reading the instructions while youÕre at it? HereÕs your fucking cookbook.
This isnÕt a book about cooking for assholes, itÕs a book about cooking by an asshole. You donÕt need to be an asshole to use itÑand you had better not be a dumbass. You just need to be tired of cookbook authors who are either officious or gushy. And you have to be game to do whatever works, regardless of what some people think you should do.
It's your meal, after all.
