Eater: 100 Essential Restaurant Recipes from the Authority on Where to Eat and Why It Matters celebrates America’s iconic restaurants

Eater has covered restaurants obsessively since 2005. In many ways, it feels natural for us to compile what we consider some of our favorite restaurant recipes into a cookbook. Or, you could argue, with years and years of reporting under our belts, we gave ourselves the impossible task of distilling everything we love about restaurants, restaurant culture, and how restaurants changed the way we eat at home into a single book.

We started, as we always do, with our team of 60-plus writers and editors — the most plugged-in restaurant and dining experts from coast to coast. The not-so-simple question: What are the restaurants, chefs, recipes, trucks, snacks, drinks, and so forth that you would most want to see in our first-ever cookbook? This led to a spreadsheet of 300 or so entries, which restaurant editor and cookbook author Hillary Dixler Canavan painstakingly delved into, eventually compiling what we consider to be a celebration of America’s iconic restaurants. Eater: 100 Essential Restaurant Recipes From the Authority on Where to Eat and Why It Matters spans restaurants from Hawai’i to Maine, with recipes from the chefs and creative minds behind food trucks and Michelin-starred restaurants, bakeries and bars, and more. The country’s foremost food experts also shared invaluable insider intel — how to make eggs like a brunch line cook, the dried noodle brands chefs love, and tricks for making a great aperitivo. No matter if it’s an emerging spot like Bridgetown Roti in Los Angeles or a splashy hotel restaurant like Nina Compton’s Compère Lapin in New Orleans, every single one of the places we’ve included are worth a visit. But until you get to all 100 of them, we’re bringing their standout dishes to your home kitchen.

The cookbook, which comes out on September 19, is now available for preorder wherever you buy your books.

Save your receipts as we’re working on some extra surprises for those who buy early — more details to come in the summer. We’re so thankful for the entire Eater team that helped put this together, all the chefs and restaurant experts who contributed, and the Eater audience for joining us in our first foray into print.

A Comforting Braised Pig Feet Recipe Perfect for Your Pressure Cooker

Image
Louiie Victa Chef Jenny Dorsey’s recipe is a testament to the trotter’s versatility When I go grocery shopping, I always look for pig feet. In the sea of unrecognizably standard-looking cuts of animal muscles at grocery stores — disk-shaped loins, round humps of pork butt — trotters are always the anomaly. They look most precisely as they were: feet, hooves, the tired bones and tissue that kept an animal upright its whole life. Unfortunately for pig feet, their look hasn’t exactly made them a popular part of the mainstream American diet. As Cecil Adams wrote back in 2016, one of the challenges in encouraging more Americans to consume offal and organ meat is that “organs resemble, well, body parts: any steak slapped on a plate looks like dinner, while a lovingly presented calf heart may suggest an autopsy.” And, Adams added, there’s the “socioeconomic stigma…that had a racial component too,” which is only exacerbated by “travelogue shows [like] Bizarre Foods .” Despite being mali...

Beyond Impossible: The Sanitarium and World War II Past of Meat Substitutes

Image
Photo by Tom Kelley/Getty Images We’ve come a long way from John Harvey Kellogg’s “protose cutlets” It’s no stretch to say that fake meat is having a moment . With the popularity of brands such as Impossible Foods and Beyond Meat joining fast-food menus and grocery store aisles alike, plant-based meats are no longer seen as a sad option for vegetarians long denied flavor with meat substitutes (though, as we know, plenty of vegetarian food is packed with flavor), but for anyone who enjoys a good burger, fried chicken, or nuggets. But are meat substitutes really the future of eating? Maybe by necessity as food resources run out, but not likely by choice. In fact, despite the big money raked in by Impossible and Beyond over the past few years, industrial meat consumption in America is actually on the rise. This week on Gastropod , Cynthia Graber and Nicola Twilley see how the not-sausage gets made, with visits to the Impossible Meat lab and Meati , a Colorado-based start-up that’...

Without Government Aid, Americans in Need Are Shoplifting Food Essentials

Image
Photo: Niloo /Shutterstock Plus, Colin Kaepernick gets his own Ben & Jerry’s ice cream flavor, and more news to start your day More people admit to shoplifting what they need to survive Since the pandemic began, Americans have called for relief for individuals and small businesses. Stimulus checks, rent and mortgage cancelation, and universal health care have all been on the table. But aside from $1,200 months ago, we’ve gotten none of that, and the latest stimulus package is woefully inadequate. So, as the Washington Post reports , more people than ever have resorted to stealing essentials like bread, baby formula, and diapers to survive. Honestly, what did the government expect? WaPo says there’s been a 45 percent increase in the number of Americans facing hunger this year, up to 54 million people. Lines at food banks have been miles long for months, with many saying that mutual aid groups and donations can’t keep up with demand . And with SNAP and WIC programs cut back,...
