Good Eats 2: The Middle Years picks up where the bestselling Good Eats: The Early Years left off. Showcasing everything Alton Brown fans (and they are legion!) have ever wanted to know about his award-winning television show, The Middle Years is chock-full of behind-the-scenes photographs and trivia, science-of-food information, cooking tips, and€"of course€"recipes. Â
Brown€s particular genius lies in teaching the chemistry of cooking with levity and exuberance. In episodes such as €œFit to Be Tied€ (meat roulades), €œCrustacean Nation€ (crab), and €œIll-Gotten Grains€ (wheat products), Brown explains everything from how to make the perfect omelet to how to stuff your own sausages. With hundreds of entertaining photographs, along with Brown€s inimitable line drawings and signature witty writing, this comprehensive companion book conveys the same wildly creative spirit as the show itself.
