Publishers Text

Cornerstone cooking is a book dedicated to teaching you how to plan meals better and use leftovers to your advantage.
The book is centered around eight cornerstone dishes. These dishes are meals that are great on their own, but can also be used as the backbone for other great meals. Each chapter includes a cornerstone dish and then 10-12 supporting recipes that include the cornerstone dish.
Here are a few examples of how you can use this book:
  • Use leftover roasted chicken to make homemade chicken and dumplings in under an hour.
  • Learn why it makes sense to bake a dozen baked potatoes at once.
  • Learn how to finally use up that extra stale bread that's in your fridge.

Below is the full list of cornerstone dishes presented in the book. Each of these comes with 10-12 supporting recipes that are simple to make once you have made the cornerstone dish.
  • Simple Roast Chicken
  • Spicy Black Beans
  • Grilled Flank Steak
  • Homemade No knead Bread
  • Baked Potatoes
  • Lentils
  • Slow Cooked Marinara Sauce
  • Vanilla Ice Cream
