Cook the Book: 'The Food52 Cookbook'

In assembling The Food52 Cookbook, Amanda Hesser and Merrill Stubbs employed a similar strategy, asking members of their community, Food52, to share their best recipe each week for a year.
Of course, determining a winner was far from an arbitrary process. Each of the top contenders were tested out and ballots were cast to see which garnered a spot in cookbook.
By asking readers for everything from their best couscous and polenta recipe to best holiday cookies and cold summer soup, Hesser and Stubbs have curated a selection that's not only diverse and exciting but also elegant while wholly accessible for home cooks. And honestly, it might just be the most useful addition to our cookbook library of 2011.
We asked Amanda Hesser to share some of her favorites from The Food52 Cookbook for this week's Cook the Book and she's provided us with quite a menu. We'll be starting off with Smoky Fried Chickpeas and moving on to Barbacoa Beef Cheek Tacos, Pink Greens, and a Spanish Roasted Potato Salad.
