Bold is nourishing. Bold is inspired. Bold is food that means business. And Bold is big—as in 250 recipes filled with big flavors to be served in big portions. From the culinary team of Susanna Hoffman and Victoria Wise—who between them have authored or coauthored more than fifteen cookbooks including The Well-Filled Tortilla Cookbook and The Well-Filled Microwave Cookbook—Bold brings together the beloved American tradition of delicious, plate-filling meals with the lively global flavors that infuse our culture and cuisine.
This is comfort food that's been given an exuberant 21st-century makeover—slow-cooked roasts and braises, generous steaks, brimming soups, heaping platters of salads and vegetables, hearty pastas and grains, wild game, and rich desserts.
This is Bold: Stuffed California Pork Rolls. Buffalo Chili with Black Bean and Corn Salsa. Meat and Potatoes Korean Style with Quick Kimchee. Leg of Lamb with Spicy Pecan Pesto. Chicken Pot Pie Under a Filo Crust. Crowded Corn Chowder with Cod, Shrimp, and Corn. Lime Curd Coconut Meringue Pie with a Macadamia Nut Crust. The book boasts a vibrant design that complements the recipes. Sidebars throughout offer cooking tips and advice, highlight people and places, and explore food history and traditions.

      Hoffman and Wise go way back. In 1971, Wise cooked the first ever meal at Chez Panisse, the famous organic restaurant that was co-owned by Hoffman and which brought fame to Alice Waters. Over the years, together and apart, the two have authored over 15 cookbooks. Their experience and sure-handedness shine through in this 250-recipe romp across multicultural America. By “bold,” the authors make clear that they mean big and flavorful. No small dishes here, and no noodles in butter. Instead, the recipe names jump from the page in huge type, announcing choices that borrow from so many ethnic identities at once it can make one’s head spin. Take, for instance, the chicken liver taquitos with ruby grapefruit peanut salsa, the edamame bruschette, or even the tandoori-style beer can chicken. And while the beer’s left in the can, splashes of wine, scotch, bourbon and tequila enhance several of the other offerings. Nine chapters cover everything from starters to meats, to vegetables, grains, and sweets, with writing that is intelligent, playful, and assured in tone. Along the way, the authors offer equally enjoyable bits of food history, exploring, for instance, Asian influences on Cajun cuisine, and the massive celery fields of Kalamazoo, Mich., circa 1870.
