Description
IACP Award Finalist
Named a Best Cookbook of the Year by the Los Angeles Times, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, Rachael Ray Every Day, and Fine Cooking
A Game-Changing Chef Redefines a Classic American Cuisine
In his debut cookbook, chef Matt Jennings honors the iconic foods of his heritage and celebrates the fresh ingredients that have come to define his renowned, inventive approach to cooking. With four James Beard Award nominations for Best Chef: Northeast, three Cochon 555 wins, and a spot on Food & Wine’s 40 Big Food Thinkers 40 and Under list, Jennings is a culinary innovator known for his unexpected uses of traditional northern ingredients (maple syrup glazes a roasted duck; a molasses and cider barbecue sauce makes the perfect accompaniment to grilled chicken wings; carbonara takes on a northern slant with the addition of razor clams). With over 100 vibrant, ingredient-driven recipes—including modern spins on New England staples like clam chowder, brown bread, and Boston cream whoopie pies, as well as beloved dishes from Jennings’s award-winning restaurant, Townsman—Homegrown shines a spotlight on a trailblazing chef and pays homage to America’s oldest cuisine.

Advance Praise
“I’ve always known Matt Jennings to have a contagious pride for northeastern cuisine, and it’s delightful to see how he shares that with the world of both home and professional cooks here in Homegrown. Matt’s simple, approachable, and delicious recipes drive me right to the store and back to the kitchen to sate my appetite for Yankee cooking with a serious reboot. Matt finds the perfect balance between honoring the region’s influential landscape and rich history while also providing a fresh twist on classic New England dishes, including influences from his wide travels and infinite repertoire. This book makes me crazy with hunger for a visit to Matt’s table in Beantown.”
