During the early days of the pandemic, New York Times food writer Melissa Clark, like the rest of us, found herself cooking every meal at home, resulting in an endless pile of dishes—like a twisted Groundhog Day of kitchen cleanup. “That’s when it really hits you—how many dishes you use in a day, especially when you are cooking breakfast, lunch, and dinner for your home family,” she tells Vogue.
Clark hates dishes as much as we do, but unlike us, she had the skills to change the game. Known for translating professional chefs' recipes into streamlined versions for home cooks, Clark spent the year developing an array of elevated yet easy-to-clean recipes. The result? Dinner in One, a comprehensive cookbook full of weeknight staples, entertaining crowd-pleasers, and delicious desserts.
Join this round’s Cookbook Club and say goodbye to dish pile-ups and hello to simple, savory meals! The club will meet on October 24th at 6:30 PM at Moonflower Coffee Collective and The Book Bus Depot, with doors opening at 6 PM. Enjoy dinner at Moonflower and dessert at the Depot.
