BoldA Cookbook of Big Flavors



Bold is nourishing. Bold is inspired. Bold is food that means business. And Bold is big—as in 250 recipes filled with big flavors to be served in big portions.

From the culinary team of Susanna Hoffman and Victoria Wise—who between them have authored or coauthored more than fifteen cookbooks including The Well-Filled Tortilla Cookbook and The Well-Filled Microwave Cookbook—Bold brings together the beloved American tradition of delicious, plate-filling meals with the lively global flavors that infuse our culture and cuisine.

 

This is comfort food that’s been given an exuberant 21st-century makeover—slow-cooked roasts and braises, generous steaks, brimming soups, heaping platters of salads and vegetables, hearty pastas and grains, wild game, and rich desserts.
