Purchase options and add-ons
Home cooks don't need dozens of cookbooks or hundreds of recipes. They just need one good book, with about 75 trustworthy, versatile, and above all, delicious recipes that can stand alone or be mixed-and-matched into extraordinary meals.
That's what Repertoire is: Real recipes, from real life, that really work.
After nearly two decades in the kitchen and writing about food, this is the way San Francisco Chronicle writer Jessica Battilana really cooks at home. These are her best recipes, the ones she relies on the most -- for a quick weeknight supper, a special dinner party, when a friend drops by for a drink and a snack, for the chocolate cake that never fails. The knowledge, freedom, and flexibility that comes from cooking these recipes is all you really need in the kitchen.
With a salad for every season, pantry pastas, many meatballs, chewy cookies, and more, Repertoire puts the perfect dish for every occasion within reach.

Editorial Reviews
Review
"San Francisco Chronicle food columnist Battilana delivers 75 classic recipes in this valuable cookbook, arguing that home cooks don't need a collection of hundreds of recipes to be well-rounded, but a "set of durable, flexible recipes that... form the backbone" of their cooking. --Publisher's Weekly
"Repertoire is a magical book of insanely delicious keeper recipes you can trust with your life. Guard it like it's made of gold." --Samin Nosrat, New York Times bestselling author of Salt, Fat, Acid, Heat
"My collection of go-to recipes has grown by a dozen, thanks to Repertoire. Offered up with warmth, confidence, and the gentle authority of a lifelong cook, this book will earn a permanent home on your kitchen counter. From (deceptively doable!) Twice-Baked Magic Souffles to Vietnamese caramel-lacquered Candy Pork(!!) and a straight-up green salad that makes me want to go absolutely nuts with the exclamation points, Battilana is the home cook we all want to be, the kind who makes everyday magic." -- Molly Wizenberg, New York Times bestselling author of A Homemade Life and Delancey
"What every home cook needs in their box of tricks." --Yotam Ottolenghi, New York Times bestselling author of Jerusalem
"Jessica Battilana inspires you to cook beyond her recipes, giving you the confidence to build your own repertoire." --Vivian Howard, New York Times bestselling author of Deep Run Roots
"A modern-day Joy of Cooking. Every kitchen should have one on the shelf." --Amanda Freitag, author of The Chef Next Door
"Ingredient-based cooking, tinged with global flavors yet not fussy, is my favorite type of cooking." --David Lebovitz, author of L'Appart and My Paris Kitchen

So much appreciation to any author who can share that point of view and make it simple to follow. Buy the book, cook the recipes, feed your family and build your repertoire. Each and every element of that process is infinitely worth it.
The photos are beautiful and will inspire you to rattle some pots and pans. The ingredients are things you likely have at home or be able to grab at any grocery store. If there are any exceptions she notes this, explains why she calls for that ingredient and offers substitutions.
One thing that separate's this book from other cookbooks I've read, is that Jessica talks of the chefs, (home and professional), who inspired her recipes - and what she modified to make it her own. I love this! Seeing the origin of a recipe and how it grows. Order the book, your taste buds will thank you.
It’s great to have a book that I can crack open at 3pm and know that I can find a recipe that I can pull off successfully by dinner time. While I love a good multi day, three trips to the store recipe as much as the next person, Repertoire is filled with delicious and achievable things you can cook and serve and look like a hero without all the blood, sweat, and tears!
The short version : delicious recipes (made two already) that my wife and I cooked successfully. Easy to understand recipes, our kitchen didn’t look like a grenade went off afterwards, and we ate like kings (kings that immediately hit the couch, full and content!)
The recipes aren’t limited to any one culinary region, they’re flexible with variation ideas, photos of special techniques needed (like rolling pretzel rolls or prepping pork saltimbocca) and suggestions of what to serve each dish with. Every recipe I’ve tried has been a winner with consistent results and I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve been asked for both the chocolate chip cookie and greenest green salad recipes.
