Knife Drop

Forget the rules. Homemade food doesn't have to be extravagant, complicated, or time-consuming to be absolutely fantastic. In his debut cookbook, Nick DiGiovanni gives you the tools to become fearless in the kitchen and create delicious dishes. Based on foundational recipes like simple pasta dough and homemade butter, Nick shares an enticing selection of his favorite recipes. Indulge in New England classics like brown butter lobster rolls and garlic butter steak bites, enjoy decadent pasta dishes like smoky mezcal rigatoni and sungold spaghetti, and create popular recipes like his viral pasta chips and dino nuggets. And of course, Nick includes some "collab" recipes from his famous friends. Knife Drop also offers Nick's expert advice on equipment, ingredients, and techniques, so home cooks of all skill levels can learn new skills. Discover a library of QR codes that lead to video tutorials demonstrating essential cooking techniques, from holding a chef's knife and making a piping bag to correctly pronouncing "gnocchi.".
