Not only does she feel like the mom of the test kitchen, but the food she makes is the same food I can expect to find on the stove when I go home to see my mom. I came cross Carla's videos from the BA Test Kitchen in late 2019 (so, before the reckoning that's now upended the channel and led to her halting her contract with CNE) and always appreciated her warmth, wit, and humble expertise as she coached the viewers, as well as celebrities with their backs to her, on different recipes. Carla is that friend. Genius. This pasta dish was so delicious, so moreish, I think we might start doing this (a little bit) more often.
One of the things she does brilliantly in Where Cooking Begins is show you how to cultivate it. Casual cooks, experienced cooks, reluctant cooks, adventurous cooks, exhausted cooks all will find new ways of focusing their efforts on delicious, satisfying meals without unreasonable effort or wasteful over-shopping.

Or maybe it's November and you're home for Thanksgiving in rural NWCT and you have driven to three grocery stores only to find some limp and overpriced radicchio that just makes you sad. There are many things to like about Where Cooking Begins: On the other hand, Where Cooking Begins isn’t without flaws (although these are minor): Overall, I think Where Cooking Begins will spend a fair amount of time off my shelf and in my kitchen, and that’s a real test of a cookbook. I love that the recipes have suggested swaps you can use, it gives a home cook the confidence to experiment.
Recipes are long with lots of ingredients (mostly common though some may throw readers like nutritional yeast, for example) though they are not complicated.
The philosophy is more of a hook, I think, than necessarily anything new, but this doesn’t detract from the recipes.

Maybe it's summer the farmer's market had so gorgeous radicchio that you're jazzed about using. Asparagus with spicy brown butter bread crumbs: I am a firm believer in the power of butter, but I cut back on the butter a bit (to 6 tbsp from 8!) Reviewed in the United States on March 23, 2019. However, with cookbooks I have to love them to use them, and this one doesn't have me reaching for it at all. I especially appreciate the flexibility ingrained in Parts 2 and 3.
Maybe it’s crazy to give a cookbook five stars but I don’t care.
It’s one thing to substitute endive for chicory (as in Chicories with Garlic Bread Crumbs) but substituting beef or pork for lamb (as in Slow Roasted Lamb Shoulder with Beans) seems a bit trickier. No small feat! Carla says it is inspired by the Italian dish “bagna cauda,” which my family makes on special occasions.

It lays out a comprehensive and incredibly practical way of approaching the whole business of shopping and cooking, so you can minimize the annoying work (of bulk shopping, and of overly complex meal planning) and maximize the enjoyment (of finding a handful of high-quality ingredients and cooking them in flexible, riff-able, delicious ways). This is a wonderful cookbook and now one of my favourites. It’s great – conversational and user-friendly. We are big fans of savory breakfasts in my family, and this dish reminded me of the kind of thing my mom would make. We ate it with homemade foccacia.

Great, but do you really learn how to cook, or are you learning how to follow directions? Despite the name, this book does not seem to be a beginners cookbook.
The first section is about planning and preparing for cooking, the second section illustrates various cooking techniques like steaming, pan-roasting, making pastry dough, etc. Perfection. It’s witty, informative and engaging.
Maybe needs more salt and acid.
That all changed with this book - basics that I can understand, a bunch of manageable variations, and then a whole lot of builds on them. Very simple to prepare, and the salmon roasting technique led to a silky, crispy, excellent result. 4.5 stars. If you're not familiar with the basics of Sauté, Pan-Roast, Steam, Boil/Simmer, Confit, Slow Roast you can read about them here, but it's unclear how many of the recipes are going to work out.
I already have a strong girl crush going from the BA podcasts and videos, and in this lovely book Carla just continues to be her funny and smart self while educating people about food and providing good shopping and cooking advice.

I ended up putting this over a mix of butter lettuce and radicchio and it worked very well. I’m not sure I’ve ever given a cookbook five stars before because I reserve five stars for books that leave me in awe, and that’s exactly what this book did. Mar 19, 2019

I buy only what I need when I need it, and check the fridge, freezer and pantry before planning the week. The recipes are simple to prepare and delicious! Leeks were a little tough. There's a problem loading this menu right now.
But at some point the simpler recipes won me over--Cosmo's Power Pancakes, Rack-Roasted Chicken, Caprese Mac and Cheese--and I love the author's voice, lively and conversational. I added a bit more vinegar since mine was a little more mellow and added the Aleppo pepper to the salad. There is good advice on stocking a kitchen. (But I’m stingy with my 5 star reviews!)

It was so easy to put together - almost an afterthought- and absolutely delicious.

I love "remix" cookbooks.
I'm not a novice cook, so most of the intro did not apply. She has this amazing, bright, supportive and encouraging presence about her (which you can see in back to back kitchen episodes) and that same personality comes through in her book. This was only ok for me - it fell a little flat. The philosophy is more of a hook, I think, than necessarily anything new, but this doesn’t detract from the recipes.
