Purchase options and add-ons

Mario Batali's delicious deep dive into American Regional cooking with 250 recipes--from San Diego Fish Tacos to Boston Cream Pie.

Over two years in the making, with Batali searching for truly delicious dishes from all corners of the US, this definitive cookbook features the best America has to offer. With over 250 simple recipes celebrating the treasures of the state fairs and the dishes of the local rotary clubs and ethnic groups. Batali has interpreted these regional gems with the same excitement and passion that he has approached traditional Italian food.

Covering the Northeast/New England, the Mid-Atlantic, the Gulf Coast, the Great Lakes, the Heartland, the Southwest, and the Pacific Coast, this book will share everything from the BBQ styles of Texas, the Smokeys and the Carolinas, to the seafood soups from yankee Boston to the spicy gumbos of the Gulf Coast and the berry pies of the Pacific Northwest.

All the dishes are very simple and do-able--from Philly Cheesesteaks to Marionberry cobbler. And while Batali uses recipes passed down through the generations, he also shares hints on what he would add to the recipe to take the flavor up a notch.

This is THE American cookbook you will want to own.

Editorial Reviews

Review

"This colorfully illustrated collection celebrates iconic American cooking with generally easily reproduced dishes that will delight people for a family dinner or for a special event . . . Batali makes every dish look like great fun, and it's impossible not to share his enthusiasm. His popularity alone will make this a required purchase . . . but the variety of content will be welcomed by even those who aren't already fans."―Mark Knoblauch, Booklist

"Culinary details, as well as Batali's essays on his two-year journey across the U.S. (which include further recommendations), set this volume apart from its peers . . . Batali fans and collectors of Americana will appreciate this reliable and well-curated compendium."―Publishers Weekly

"There's not an ounce of pretense amid the 250-plus dishes that comprise the celeb chef's latest offering. Instead, you'll find Batali's talented take on old-school regional fare."―Modern Farmer

About the Author

Mario Batali counts 26 restaurants, ten cookbooks, numerous television shows, and three Eataly marketplaces among his ever-expanding empire of deliciousness. His cookbooks include the James Beard Award-winning Molto Italiano: 327 Simple Italian Recipes (2005) and his popular cookbook, America -- Farm to Table.

Batali appears daily on ABC's The Chew, a daytime talk show on ABC that celebrates and explores life through food. He and his co-hosts won their first Emmy as Best Talk Show Hosts this year.

The only thing Jim Webster likes to do more than eat is write about eating. Okay, that's kind of a lie -- he loves them both equally. When not at his job as a copy editor at the Washington Post, he can be found at farmers' markets, in the kitchen or crafting stories about the chefs and farmers who feed us all. He is the co-author of two New York Times best-selling cookbooks, and of the upcoming Casa Mono Cookbook (Oct. 2018). He has developed recipes for contests, and won twice, with dishes called "pig-wrapped, pig-stuffed pig" and "adovado + avocado." In his work at newspapers, he has been named the best headline writer in the country five times and has tested recipes for the Washington Post and cookbooks.

Great book, shipment was not complete

Reviewed in the United States on November 16, 2019

Verified Purchase

The book is awesome and I knew it would be because I borrowed a copy from the library prior to this purchase. It is filled with recipes that are absolutely true to the dish cooked in the region they came from. Ones that I grew up with were there, and they were correct! The book itself earns all 5 stars, however, I bought it "new" and expected it to be complete, and to me that means that it comes with the dust jacket it was published with. Lo and behold: NO dust jacket. I'm not happy about that.

I like simple, delicious comfort food

Reviewed in the United States on December 13, 2016

Verified Purchase

I am not a sophisticated cook; I like simple, delicious comfort food. This book looked like it was right up my alley. Whenever I get a new cookbook (a couple of times per year), I sit down with a hand full of book marks, thumb through the book and mark the pages of the recipes that I want to make first. Usually there are a half dozen or so that look so good that I want to make them right away. No joke, I bookmarked about 75% of the recipes in this book. The dishes look amazing. I just got the book yesterday, and will make something this weekend and then probably another 6 or 8 recipes over the Holiday. I'll adjust the rating based on the results if necessary. But so far, I am really excited about this book!

A Greatest Hits List of American Cuisine

Reviewed in the United States on October 10, 2016

Verified Purchase

Wow, this is a must-have cookbook for any library, from beginner to advanced. It features the most popular recipes from various American regions and the one's I've tried to date are delicious and chef-worthy without being too complicated or having lengthy ingredient lists. There is a photograph for every recipe and the commentary is clever. As to the prior reviewer who says it has too many "weird recipes," I couldn't disagree more--all of the dishes in this book are popular and recognizable (fried chicken, philly cheesesteaks, clam chowder). If I could only have one American cookbook, this would be it.

I love, love

Reviewed in the United States on October 20, 2016

Verified Purchase

I love, love, love it! So many of the regional foods he writes about are so familiar to me. I already make a lot of them, but I am always happy to try new ones. Wings, and beef on weck? I'm from Buffalo! Loose meat and runza? I have family in Iowa, Slippery Pot pie and beef with noodles? My dad grew up in PA. KC ribs? I live there now! I'm only halfway through and I can't wait to find out what other goodies are in store.

Out of the Park Homerun

Reviewed in the United States on October 22, 2016

Verified Purchase

Another Mario Batali homerun! This is a beautiful cookbook, full of magnificent photos. It will take me a year to cook my way through all the recipes that I bookmarked. The only recipe that I promise I won’t try is the one for Rocky Mountain Oysters. Many recipes have a fairly short ingredient list and the ingredients are all readily available (except the aforementioned rocky mountain oysters ). I’ll be leaving this book out on my coffee table for a while.

Great, clear photographs

Reviewed in the United States on December 29, 2016

Verified Purchase

It's all in there, done right. Great, clear photographs, too. You can never go wrong with Mario. I let my four and eight year old grandsons peruse it to pick out what they wanted me to make them -- I told them I would make whatever they wanted. They chose the tortilla soup, raspberry milkshakes, and whoopee pies. These little boys were excited about a cookbook! Thanks, Mario, love you.

The book had been exposed to some oil and had ink stains, but is otherwise a fine product and I am very happy with it.

There are recipes that I will try as the instructions are easy to follow

Reviewed in Canada on June 30, 2017

Verified Purchase

Mario Batali has provided a cookbook with regional recipes from around the USA. There are recipes that I will try as the instructions are easy to follow. It is nice that the you have the opportunity to change the recipes to suit your tastes (don't like a specific ingredient, change it to your liking). I will say that this one heavy cookbook. I didn't expect the weight of the book.
