Shopworn: New Kitchen Basics - 10 Essential Ingredients & 120 Easy Recipes by Claire Thomson | Transform Your Daily Cooking | Perfect for Home Chefs & Meal Prep

Shopworn copies are final sale and may display slight cosmetic damages such as dinged corners, torn dust jackets and dented spines.

Most of us buy the same ingredients week in, week out, and cook the same old recipes. Cookery writer Claire Thomson wants to encourage people to ditch the boring chicken stir-fry and the all-too-predictable spaghetti, and enliven their cooking and eating.

Claire takes our 10 favorite ingredients and reinvents them as modern classics. With sections on chicken, tomatoes, eggs, ground meat, pasta, potatoes, salad, lemon and chocolate, each chapter covers the basics about that ingredient, then offers 12 recipes using each in ways that will brighten up mealtimes. Claire's cooking is simple yet imaginative, and her kitchen expertise and knowledge of flavor combinations means that these dishes will become your new standby meals.

This is the new essential cookbook, a modern-day solution to the eternal question: "What should I cook tonight?"
