Cook the Book: The Oprah Magazine Cookbook
Oprah Winfrey probably isn't the first name you think of when you reach for a recipe or cookbook, and the omnipresent TV show host would be the first to tell you, in the intro to her new cookbook, that she's not the best in the kitchen ("Though I do a pretty mean corn fritter," she says). Still, one thing that Oprah knows exceedingly well is how to surround herself with talented folks who can deliver the goods to her audience. Since 2000, she's been doing just that with her magazine, O, which features recipes from top-name chefs and food writers. In The Oprah Magazine Cookbook, she's collected many of those recipes—from the likes of Marcus Samuelsson, Leah Chase, April Bloomfield, and 60-some others. We're featuring it as our Cook the Book entry this week, and we'll be highlighting one recipe a day from it until Friday. The first one will be up shortly, but let's take care of some business here:
