"My Family Table: A Passionate Plea for Home Cooking"
By: Chef John Besh

Chef John Besh - New Orleans native, James Beard Award winner, and renowned chef of eight acclaimed restaurants - is known for his dedication to local ingredients and local cuisine.

Chef Besh's best-selling first cookbook, My New Orleans, has become a culinary treasure and attained iconic status as the go-to book on New Orleans cuisine. Now, in his highly anticipated second cookbook, My Family Table: A Passionate Plea for Home Cooking, John moves beyond regional cooking and into the heart of American kitchens everywhere. He reminds us of the importance and necessity of making meals at home, and that by planning ahead and thinking smart, people everywhere can put fresh, healthy meals on their own family tables every day.

Chef Besh is not only a chef-he is a father and a storyteller. In My Family Table, home cooks will have an intimate look into life at home with his wife and their four boys, as Chef Besh urges others to get back into the kitchen and to gather around the table with family and friends to slow down and reconnect.

With more than 150 color photographs and 140 recipes, each of the eleven chapters of My Family Table provides indispensable, accessible dishes for every occasion. The book also includes special cooking tips and sidebars that will help home cooks maximize their ingredients, and their budgets, and plan meals ahead.
