In the kitchen, brevity is brilliant. Short recipes are the ones cooks remember best-not only because they’re simple to make and easy to repeat, but because they are boiled down to their elemental beauty and charm. In Milk Street Shorts, Christopher Kimball and his team of cooks and editors have developed a repertoire of nearly 150 genius recipes that are casual, improvisational, and fun. These recipes are not just short-they’re bolder, better cooking because they’re short. Their essential cleverness gives them power that does not require long ingredient lists or all-day cooking.
