The New York Times Cooking No-Recipe Recipes by Sam Sifton - Hardcover

For the creative cook, the curious dabbler, or anyone who’s ever stared into the fridge and wished dinner would reveal itself—this one’s for you.

From the brilliantly unfussy mind of New York Times Cooking editor Sam Sifton comes a bestselling guide to weeknight magic: 100 no-recipe recipes that are full of flavor, freedom, and joy. No measuring cups, no rules, just beautifully photographed ideas that let you riff, swap, sauté, and serve with ease.

Think: Fried Egg Quesadillas. Pasta with Garbanzos. Roasted Shrimp Tacos. Pizza (hold the crust). Chicken with golden caramelized onions and crunchy croutons. Even Oven S’mores. It’s comfort food with a wink and a nudge—easygoing, utterly satisfying, and designed for the way real people eat.

This flexibound beauty reads like a conversation with your favorite clever friend who just happens to know how to make anything taste amazing. A George & Fred favorite for anyone who loves food but hates being told what to do.

A Vanity Fair, Time Out, and Salon Best Cookbook of the Year.
No rules. No stress. Just delicious.
