Book Description

November 6, 2012
Comfort food never tasted so good!

Carla Hall is co-host of ABC’s daily lifestyle series The Chew. Carla first won the hearts of fans nationwide on Bravo’s Top Chef. When she returned for Top Chef All-Stars, she went on to win Fan Favorite with her warmth, enthusiasm, and delicious food. In this book, she serves up more than 100 fantastic recipes that revolutionize comfort food by using fresh ingredients in her twists on tried-and-true classics.

From the Southern staple Down-Home Deviled Eggs with Smoky Bacon to silky and light Spicy Carrot-Ginger Soup to the ultimate Chicken Pot Pie with buttery crust on the bottom to her Granny’s unforgettably luscious Five-Flavor Pound Cake, Carla’s beautiful, flavorful recipes are so deeply satisfying, they’ll become family favorites in your kitchen.

Carla believes that the only way to make truly comforting food is to cook it from the heart. And she does it by making the most of seasonal, whole ingredients while keeping preparation easy and getting reliable, accurate results. In Cooking with Love, Carla shows us the love with tempting and inspiring recipes for all sorts of sumptuous dishes, displayed in beautiful full-color photographs. Carla also teaches culinary basics and shares kitchen tips as well as funny, poignant tales of her own experiences cooking with family, friends, and fellow chefs.

Editorial Reviews

Review

"Whoever put this book in your hands loves you - and you're about to love them right back! Carla is a born teacher. Full of useful insights, helpful quick-fixes learned from years of trial and error, and her signature humor (and patience), Cooking With Love puts Ms. Hootie Hoo herself right there at the stove next to you, every step of the way. Whether you're a novice or expert, she'll have you dancing into the kitchen to whip up unbelievably simple, sumptuous feasts from scratch, whether it's weeknight Buffalo Wing Burgers, or The Saints' Gumbo for a weekend get together. If I'm coming to dinner, please make the Groundnut Stew - it's my favorite!" (Daphne Oz The Dorm Room Diet)

“Carla Hall knocks it out of the park with her first book, all about love, tradition, family, flavor and style, and flavor again. Her true natural ability to make things delicious is all over every single recipe. I love working with Carla on “The Chew” every day and simply get jiggy every time we get to taste her magic on set. With this sweet tome in the home kitchen anyone can make thoughtful tasty food with real style.” (Mario Batali)

“As a cook who enjoys kitchen experiments, I love Carla’s stories of how she develops her delicious dishes, tinkering with flavor combinations until she gets them just right. And they really are just right. And what a range: her rustic mushroom tart is great and Granny’s five-flavor pound cake is worth the price of the book.” (Jennifer Reese Make the Bread, Buy the Butter)

5.0 out of 5 stars "DELICIOUS QUICK-AND-EASY RECIPES FROM THE HEART!" November 8, 2012
Format:Hardcover
I received this book as a gift from a dear friend, who knows I enjoy collecting recipe books. As I put it to the test, my daughter asked me to make chicken-pot-pie, which is not only comfort food, but delicious. We will have that again-and-again as we love pot-pies! The mouth-watering pound cake not only smells fantastic, but I felt like an expert Chef just made it. I have at least 10 different recipes for pound cake from several cookbooks, my favorite is now from this book. Making home-made pound cake is important to me, because not only do I make it for my family, but also for friends as a holiday gift! Carla Hall is Amazing, funny, and I love her positive attitude and spirit. She tells it like it is as she does on TV, with style and family tradition. The recipes are easy, quick, and aim to please, whether it's for a family dinner or a social gathering.A very entertaining recipe book that I will cherish in my collection. I enjoy experimenting as much as the author, and there's always a favorite recipe from each book I own. However, I already have 2 favorites from this delightful cookbook. Insightful, fun-filled, and enjoyable. Highly Recommended!

5.0 out of 5 stars Recipes turned out great! November 7, 2012
Format:Hardcover
I purchased the book yesterday and I have to say that it's one of the best cookbooks that I have bought to date. Every time I buy a new book, I like to test some of the recipes out for dinner that night. I made the sweet potato tomato bisque, the grilled cheese and the curried beef dumplings and they were outstanding!!! My family loved them. There are so many tips to help you get it right. Carla really nails it with these recipes. I hope you all take the chance to try it.

5.0 out of 5 stars A look into the beautiful heart of Carla Hall November 7, 2012
By Chef AM
Format:Hardcover
I loved Carla on Top Chef for her big personality and her enormous heart. I'm so excited to own some of her soulful recipes, especially her winning Chicken Pot Pie (with crust on bottom!). Every recipe shows her spirit and passion for food. Check out The Chew for more delicious comfort food recipes from Carla Hall.
