Enjoyable, informative cookbook with interesting recipes, and a great primer in the front of the book about global spices and foods。 With nice pictures accompanying the recipes, this was an enjoyable read!Thank you Netgalley and Workman Publishing Company for the ARC!

I received a copy of this book through NetGalley in exchange for an honest review。I liked the concept of this book, but it wasn't quite what I expected。 The book focuses on some staple spices and dishes from various countries but doesn't have pictures of each dish which is kind of a bummer。 The book talks about shopping and stocking your pantry which is helpful, but a lot of the recipes are pretty basic。 Overall not for me, but I can see how it could be helpful to someone just learning about glo I received a copy of this book through NetGalley in exchange for an honest review。I liked the concept of this book, but it wasn't quite what I expected。 The book focuses on some staple spices and dishes from various countries but doesn't have pictures of each dish which is kind of a bummer。 The book talks about shopping and stocking your pantry which is helpful, but a lot of the recipes are pretty basic。 Overall not for me, but I can see how it could be helpful to someone just learning about global flavors。 。。。more

Yes, there are tables in the back of the book to convert the measurements from cups, ounces etc。 to grams and liters - but honestly, I have no interest in first doing all the math, before being able to cook。 This is a cookbook I would have loved to have, but that spoiled it for me。 。。。more

Book Review: The Global Pantry Cookbook by Scott Mowbray & Ann Taylor PittmanRating: 4 stars out of 5The Global Pantry Cookbook, written by James Beard-Award winners Scott Mowbray and Ann Taylor Pittman, is a culinary treasure trove that unlocks the secrets of the global pantry。 With over 120 recipes, this cookbook provides readers with the knowledge and inspiration to elevate their favorite dishes using 65 common pantry items sourced from around the world。One of the standout features of this co Book Review: The Global Pantry Cookbook by Scott Mowbray & Ann Taylor PittmanRating: 4 stars out of 5The Global Pantry Cookbook, written by James Beard-Award winners Scott Mowbray and Ann Taylor Pittman, is a culinary treasure trove that unlocks the secrets of the global pantry。 With over 120 recipes, this cookbook provides readers with the knowledge and inspiration to elevate their favorite dishes using 65 common pantry items sourced from around the world。One of the standout features of this cookbook is its diversity of ingredients。 From familiar items like miso, preserved lemons, and smoked paprika to lesser-known treasures such as Banyuls Vinegar and Makrut Lime Leaves, the authors introduce readers to a wide range of flavors and spices。 This variety will undoubtedly pique the interest of adventurous home cooks eager to expand their culinary repertoire。The book is thoughtfully organized into chapters that cover snacks, appetizers, salads, stews, and various meat categories like beef, lamb, pork, and poultry。 There are also sections dedicated to fish, meat-free options, sandwiches, bread, vegetables, and desserts。 With such a comprehensive collection of recipes, readers can easily find dishes to suit their preferences or dietary requirements。In addition to the recipes themselves, The Global Pantry Cookbook provides invaluable guidance on working with these unique ingredients。 The authors offer insights into essential cooking tools and techniques, ensuring that even novice cooks can confidently experiment with new flavors。 A glossary of terms further enhances the reader’s understanding of global pantry items, making this cookbook not only a source of delicious recipes but also an educational resource。While the book’s content is undeniably impressive, the visual appeal falls slightly short。 Though the photographs are enticing and mouthwatering, they appear somewhat small and lack the captivating pop against the stark white background。 A more visually striking presentation could have brought the recipes to life and further engaged readers。Overall, The Global Pantry Cookbook is a valuable addition to any food lover’s collection。 Its wealth of recipes and diverse range of ingredients make it an excellent resource for both experienced cooks and those looking to expand their cooking horizons。 While the visual presentation could be improved, the wealth of knowledge and inspiration within these pages more than compensates for this minor flaw。 This cookbook would make an ideal gift for anyone seeking to explore new flavors and techniques in their culinary adventures。**ARC Via NetGalley** 。。。more

I received a copy of this book from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review。This cookbook is an interesting take on fusion cooking。 From appetizers to desserts, there are tweaks to known recipes and some recipes that may not be familiar to some readers。 I admit, I would not have thought of using fish sauce on ribs or oyster sauce with a roast, but I will have to try those ideas now。 The list of pantry ingredients and where to find them if they aren't available locally is also helpful。A neatly I received a copy of this book from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review。This cookbook is an interesting take on fusion cooking。 From appetizers to desserts, there are tweaks to known recipes and some recipes that may not be familiar to some readers。 I admit, I would not have thought of using fish sauce on ribs or oyster sauce with a roast, but I will have to try those ideas now。 The list of pantry ingredients and where to find them if they aren't available locally is also helpful。A neatly arranged, well thought out cookbook that will appeal to those interesting in global cuisine。 。。。more

Makes sense。。。Growing up in Hawaii, the ultimate melting pot, this is how we cooked。 It wasn't taught, but was just intuitive。 For those that did not grow up with a global influence, this is a great cookbook of thinking outside of the same old spice box。 So instead of reaching for the same old, reach for the Asian sauces, reach for the spicy hit, to mix it up。 Recommend。 Makes sense。。。Growing up in Hawaii, the ultimate melting pot, this is how we cooked。 It wasn't taught, but was just intuitive。 For those that did not grow up with a global influence, this is a great cookbook of thinking outside of the same old spice box。 So instead of reaching for the same old, reach for the Asian sauces, reach for the spicy hit, to mix it up。 Recommend。 。。。more

The Global Pantry Cookbook isn't exactly what I was expecting。 I thought I would find a wide array of recipes from around the world。 Instead, there are a lot of what I would consider basic recipes with one or two of the global pantry ingredients incorporated。 To me the most useful part of the cookbook is the introduction, where the authors introduce many commonly used global ingredients。 They include some background, shopping information and list the recipes that use that ingredient。 There are p The Global Pantry Cookbook isn't exactly what I was expecting。 I thought I would find a wide array of recipes from around the world。 Instead, there are a lot of what I would consider basic recipes with one or two of the global pantry ingredients incorporated。 To me the most useful part of the cookbook is the introduction, where the authors introduce many commonly used global ingredients。 They include some background, shopping information and list the recipes that use that ingredient。 There are photos for most recipes but not all。 It's an interesting approach, but I'm not sure how much I will use the cookbook overall。 I would prefer to look for a certain type of recipe rather than starting with an ingredient and finding a recipe from there。Thank you to #Netgalley and #WorkmanPublishingCompany for a free copy of #TheGlobalPantryCookbook by Scott Mowbray and Ann Taylor Pittman。 All opinions are my own。 。。。more

The Global Pantry Cookbook is an accessible overview of the many delectible flavors of the world, thoughtfully simplified for the home chef using easily sourcible ingredients。 Many of the recipes blend traditional American ingredients like grits with global flavors in creative fusion dishes like a South-Asian take on shrimp and grits。 Many of the recipes are designed to be quick and easy, simplifying dishes which can sometimes take a whole day in their traditional contexts。 While as an experienc The Global Pantry Cookbook is an accessible overview of the many delectible flavors of the world, thoughtfully simplified for the home chef using easily sourcible ingredients。 Many of the recipes blend traditional American ingredients like grits with global flavors in creative fusion dishes like a South-Asian take on shrimp and grits。 Many of the recipes are designed to be quick and easy, simplifying dishes which can sometimes take a whole day in their traditional contexts。 While as an experienced cook I found the text a bit broad in theme, this is the type of cookbook I might grab for a fast week-day meal when I am in the mood to try something new and quick with the international ingredients I have on hand。 For those just getting their feet wet in global cooking, this book would be a great place to start, although at the outset it might require purchasing a wide range of international ingredients to stock your pantry。 Overall, a broad and interesting peak into the many distinct flavors the world has to offer with insight into how to incorporate these ingredients into daily cooking。 。。。more

First, a look at the authors:Scott Mowbray has been a national magazine editor (Eating Well and Cooking Light), columnist, book author and editorial strategist, and has won highest awards from both the American Society of Magazine Editors and the James Beard Foundation。Ann Taylor Pittman is a long-time food writer, food editor, and recipe developer who has won two James Beard Foundation Awards, one for her article titled “Mississippi Chinese Lady Goes Home to Korea” and one with Scott Mowbray for writing The New Way to Cook Light cookbook。The book begins with an introduction to today’s global food scene, and asks the question why we don’t bring these flavors and cuisines into our home kitchen。 The answer is most of us are intimidated by strange ingredients, so the authors demystify these exotic elements。 Adding them as a pantry staple will boost flavor, add depth or heat, fragrance or acidic zing, or improve texture。 The book continues with a description of 65 common pantry items from around the world, as well as shopping info, uses and storage。 Then we get into the recipes, and there is a beautiful photograph of every dish。 The recipes are step-by-step, and show it’s really not that difficult to incorporate these items into your kitchen。 For instance, tahini can be used to make homemade hummus that’s even silkier than store-bought, and there are also dessert recipes that incorporate tahini。 The authors even give your four ideas for hummus toppings that sound delicious。 The book has sparked some ideas for changing up the dinner menu, like Shrimp Boil Hush Puppies with leftover sausage, shrimp, etc。 and a Tabasco Aioli or Bulgogi Sloppy Joes, which I can't wait to try。 And I'm planning on making preserved lemons just to give my lunchbox a kick with Chicken Salad made with apricots and preserved lemons。 And maybe my holiday table needs a makeover with Slow and Custardy Sweet Potatoes。The authors make it easy to visualize little changes that will have a big impact。https://candysplanet。wordpress。com/ 。。。more

Wow! Wonderful cookbook! This cookbook is very different in its approach using ingredients as the focus instead of a country or cuisine for recipes。 I really liked the concept。 The ingredients are not only clearly described, availability and sources are suggested。 Many are available either online or at Asian markets (no such markets anywhere near me)。 The recipe sections are grouped well using the featured ingredients with clear instructions and tips。 I consider myself a medium to advanced home Wow! Wonderful cookbook! This cookbook is very different in its approach using ingredients as the focus instead of a country or cuisine for recipes。 I really liked the concept。 The ingredients are not only clearly described, availability and sources are suggested。 Many are available either online or at Asian markets (no such markets anywhere near me)。 The recipe sections are grouped well using the featured ingredients with clear instructions and tips。 I consider myself a medium to advanced home cook with lots of experience and help from TV food shows。 I knew of or had used many of the ingredients but also found several new ones to try。 The recipes aren’t just for Asian dishes, many classic meals with completely unexpected flavors。 The sweets section was my least favorite。 I’ve used sweetened condensed milk for decades and there’s more creative uses than ‘pretend’ ice cream。 The photos are mouthwatering。 I would try many of the uses for the ingredients suggested and would make lots of the recipes。 There is something for everyone, seafood, vegetarian, appetizers to pasta。 I did not notice nutritional information or calories for the dishes, not a concern to me, could be for others。 Since I was reading the book as a PDF it was not easy to navigate and format for comfortable viewing。 I’m sure I would love the hardcover more。I’ve already discussed the recipes with my family, can’t wait to try lots of the ideas in new ways。 This would make a wonderful gift for aspiring foodies。 I would like to thank NetGalley for the digital advance reader copy of “The Global Pantry Cookbook” author’s Scott Mowbray, Ann Taylor Pittman, by Workman Publishing Company。 These are all my own honest personal thoughts and opinions given voluntarily without compensation。 。。。more

This cookbook is top notch from explaining the goals of the cookbook, the pantry staples (and how to get them), and their instruction style。 They reference and share learnings from other authors and publications, using science to back up techniques and methodology。 The way the recipes are laid out is clear and simple from the call out in the top corners of Global Pantry Ingredients needed, to dividing up the ingredients by where it will be used, the inclusion of substitutions where they can, and the occasional Make Ahead or Prep Tip。 I also really enjoy the sections and tips on being an eco-conscious shopper - including how to select fish, the pros of canned, and where to buy。 Only negative I might say is that one or two of the global pantry ingredients they recommend you can only find online。 The rest are all accessible in most grocery stores or ethnic-focused markets but knowing I would not bother to online order specialty bacon but I will go to a specialty grocery if needed, it might have made more sense to swap or change the recommendation with the traditional home cook in mind。 Can't wait for this to come out in stores so I can go grab a copy! 。。。more

This book would be great for someone inexperienced with cooking, but still has enough variety for those with experience。 If you love eating various foods from various cultures, like I do, you will love this。 I also like mixing up my proteins so I appreciate that much of the book is sectioned that way instead of the usual breakfast, lunch, etc。

Jamie Park

I love how the beginning of the book has a list of pantry staples we will need to make the recipes。 The photos are gorgeous and iomg the recipes are easy and flawless。 I need to go shopping and I will for sure need to purchase this book in a hard copy。 It has everything, salads, snacks, and soups。

Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for the ARC of this book。 I really like this approach to broadening out our cooking repertoires--to take certain ingredients and then have recipes showing you how to use them。 I admit to often seeing something in the store and thinking it sounds good, but what should I do with it? This has a wide variety of recipes helping you do just that。

Tracy

Really enjoyed learning about pantry staples and different ingredients from all over the world。 A great book for a foodie or cookbook collector。 I also liked that it includes recipes and ideas on how to change up old recipes with new ingredients。 Thanks to Netgalley and publisher for allowing me to read and review this title。

Yummy!!!! (And since I had to buy 2 kg of black sesame seeds, trust me when I say we are a "back in black" household at the moment!)This book is amazing as it will show you how to use up all your ingredients before they go bad or you throw them out。 Gochujang is all over the place on Guy's Grocery Games (Brian Malarkey loves it!) and I got a lot of ideas from there, but there are so many amazing other ingredients that gather dust that you can use in your kitchen。Highly recommended and I will suggest it to my foodie readers far and wide。 。。。more
