Description

The eagerly awaited cookbook from Dale Talde, Top Chef favorite and owner of the acclaimed Brooklyn restaurant Talde.
Born in Chicago to Filipino parents, Dale Talde grew up both steeped in his circle of relatives’s culinary heritage and infatuated with American fast food–burgers, chicken nuggets, and Hot Pockets. These days, his dual identity is etched at the menu at Talde, his at all times-packed Brooklyn restaurant. There he reimagines iconic Asian dishes, imbuing them with Americana whilst doubling down at the culinary fireworks that made them so popular within the first place. His riff on pad thai features bacon and oysters. He gives juicy pork dumplings the salty, springy exterior of soft pretzels. His food is not Asian fusion; it is Asian-American.

Now, in his first cookbook, Dale shares the recipes that have made him famous, all told in his inimitable voice. Some chefs cook food meant to move you to Northern Thailand or Sichuan province, to Vietnam or Tokyo. Dale’s food is meant to remind you that you are home.
