Do you like to eat?  Do you like to cook for your self and others?  Are you willing to try something different to spice up your cooking game?  Then you might want to snag a copy of Milk Street: The New Rules and see if any of these rules will work for you.

In Milk Street: The New Rules, Christopher Kimball and the Milk Street crew provide 75 rules to help you cook better, provide more flavor, and think about what you are cooking and why.  This is not your ordinary cookbook with meat, potatoes, and desert sections.  Instead there are 75 "Rules" spread across vegetables, beans & grain, noodles & breads, eggs, seafood, chicken, pork, and beef.  Scattered among those sections are sidebars on spices, sauces, and the Milk Street cooking philosophy.

The recipes that illustrate the various rules tend to be varied in complexity and spiciness with cooking times and ingredients followed a description of the dish, pertinent notes, and instructions.  Often substitutions for certain ingredients are provided as well.

If you listen to Milk Street Radio or watch the Milk Street cooking show, you will have an idea of what is in Milk Street: The New Rules.  But even if you are not a fan, you can pick up tips and new recipes that will enhance your own cooking.  Read and enjoy!
