The Book
The Sussman brothers are recent college graduates with a wide range of cooking experiences; from their time cooking together at a summer camp where Max was the head chef, to their different restaurant experiences, diners for Eli and upscale establishments for Max. It is this range of cooking experiences that give this cookbook its unique attitude towards food, unpretentious and yet passionate about creativity and quality.
Max and Eli take all the fear out of cooking for the first-time cook, even giving detailed instructions on the grocery experience and on the proper way to make perfect pasta every time. On the other hand, they promise that even if someone can cook a three-course meal, they will still learn new techniques and tips.
Today’s youth are becoming more and more interested in cooking and in food in general. All the news about the importance of eating locally and organically has made a big impact, as college cafeterias shift to healthier and local food. Often, young people might not have the budget to dine at the finest slow-food restaurant or buy only the most sustainable grass-fed beef. Freshman in the Kitchen is written for this group of young, budget-minded, food-conscious and socially aware aspiring cooks and those first-timers who want to learn.
