Description

From America's bestselling grilling authority, an essential guide to Griddles, including delicious recipes and the do's and don't's of grilling.

Prized for their accessibility and versatility—and because they’re so much fun to use—griddles (also known as planchas and flat-tops) are soaring in popularity. Project Griddle features the trademark Raichlen approach, with plenty of practical cooking techniques and nearly 80 hunger-inducing recipes. It traces the history and geography of griddling, from the teppan of Japan to the plancha of Spain to champa grilling in South America. A gear chapter showcases the various types of stand-up and portable flattops and planchas, plus the requisite accessories, how to season and maintain a griddle, how to oil and cook on it, with chefs’ shortcuts, and some pitfalls to watch out for. 

And then there are the recipes—each one as outrageously delicious and foolproof as the last, for classics like the crispiest smash burgers and tapas bar shrimp to an entire suite of heretofore un-grillable foods—egg-and-bacon breakfast feasts, potato latkes, crepes, French toast, and smoky fried rice. It's Project Smoke for griddles—and don’t think of buying one without its guidance.

This book made me hungry from page one. Everything you want and need to know about cooking on a griddle and so many wonderful and tasty recipes to use over and over again. There is so much useful information in this book that will help you to cook on your griddle with ease.

The great photos had me running to the kitchen to start cooking. The recipes are easy to follow, ingredients you can easily get or have on hand and the results will have your family and friends coming back for more. This is a book I will be able to use time and again. A timeless and tasty cookbook.

Thank you NetGalley and Workman Publishing Company for giving me the opportunity to read and review this book.

I have a weakness for outstanding cookbooks, and this is top of the list. This book is packed with everything that anyone wanting to cook on a griddle can need. The author gives us a wonderful history of using a griddle. He tells
us tools we need and how to prepare our griddles to use. The recipes are outstanding and a wide variety. They include everything from breakfast to desserts and everything in between. Each recipe is detailed and so easy to follow, even for beginners like me. You will find recipes for things you wouldn't expect on the griddle like fried rice & french toast. We found some family favorites like chicken Fingers and Tapas Bar Shrimp. You're sure to find your own favorite as you want to try every yummy recipe. You're going to love this amazing book.

As with all of Raichlen's books, Project Griddle is filled with deliciousness -- gorgeous photos, recipes stretching from breakfast to desserts, a primer on the how, why, and where of griddles, and tips aplenty. Most useful: the section on how to prep a griddle before the first use and clean it without damaging it. A terrific addition to the cookbook shelf!

Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for this digital ARC.
