Cast-Iron Cooking for Two: 75 Quick and Easy Skillet Recipes (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781510748033)

Small-batch, one-pot dishes to share with close friends and family

In Cast-Iron Cooking for Two, Joanna Pruess celebrates the enduring appeal of cast-iron cooking and the countless twosomes who love sharing home-cooked food. Her 75 easy and flavorful recipes feature versatile cast-iron skillets that are the right size for people cooking for two (or three), whether they be empty nesters, college students, or just anyone who is not feeding a group.

You'll find plenty of dishes that are perfect for any occasion when it's just the two of youؙ--or maybe even a few of you Date night, Sunday morning with a couple of kids, or a casual drop-in dinner for a close friend. Real ingredients that are easily accessible, along with a smattering of high-quality convenience foods (think prepared pesto, pumpkin pie spice mix), help the home cook save time, money, and cupboard and counter space.

Home cooks are discovering the cast-iron pan, popular for centuries, as a tool for economical, easy, elemental ways to cook. Pruess includes a section about caring for pans and debunking some commonly held myths about cooking with cast-iron.

Joanna invites the cook to get creative, mix and match, and buck tradition: Buckwheat Cr pes with Smoked Salmon can be served for breakfast, brunch, or even dinner. Blackberry Candied Ginger Crisp could even become a celebratory breakfast instead of a dessert. And some of the side dishes, such as Roasted Corn Pancakes with Cherry Tomato Salsa and Sweet Potato Pancakes with Brussels Sprouts Slaw, could be the center of a light dinner or lunch.

There's something for everyone--and their closest friends and family--in Pruess's latest, Cast-Iron Cooking for Two.
