Flay Family Recipes for Any Day of the Week: A Bobby Flay Cookbook
August 15, 2022
Celebrity chef Flay (Beat Bobby Flay) returns with an inviting collection of recipes inspired by meals and memories he has shared with his daughter, Sophie, which he in turn hopes will give readers “wonderful moments between you and the people close to you.” From zhuzhed up breakfast staples (brioche French toast with peaches and blueberry maple syrup, cacio e pepe eggs on olive oil toast) and dinner classics (fried chicken thighs seasoned with chile de árbol and served with homemade ranch dressing, red wine–braised short ribs), these recipes are sure to please. Flay peppers in helpful tips that address common cooking blunders (for the paella, he advises to “resist the urge” to stir the rice as it cooks so that a “socarrat,” or crispy crust, can develop), and Sophie shares anecdotes, joking, for instance, that she and her dad probably “hold the world record” for pistachio gelato consumption, giving readers a glimpse at their relationship. Home cooks will appreciate adding these easy-to-prepare, memorable meals to their repertoire as they get ready to set a table for loved ones.

This new offering, inspired by Flay's (Beat Bobby Flay) favorite day of the week to cook for friends and family, highlights no fuss, no muss cooking with an emphasis on flavor. Flay and his daughter Sophie comment on dishes and share family stories with sidebars and feature quotes. That may sound busy, but the layout remains clean, and the photos are bright, appetizing, and informative. Each chapter delivers a feature loaded with tips for success in the kitchen for the beginning cook, along with enough sophistication for the experienced chef. Creative flavors and plenty of Flay-family comfort dishes, including roasts and decadent desserts, are perfect for entertaining, and there are also vegetarian options throughout, providing lighter fare for weeknight affairs. The father-daughter duo recently debuted a new Food Network show; though this book is not a true companion, it will appeal to fans. Not just another celebrity chef cookbook--will find its audience among cooks of all levels looking for simple execution with elegant results. VERDICT The Flays have slayed it with a casual family cookbook that covers the basics for beginners, but it is full of surprises for veteran home chefs.--Sarah Tansley
