Two things that rarely fail to bring people together are a hearty laugh and a good meal. American Cuisine For the New Home Cook is a satirical cookbook that examines the interaction between humor and food. This book follows a disgruntled chef leading new cooks through the basics of American cuisine, all the while poking fun at and harshly criticizing both the tendencies of American food culture and the skill of these new chefs. The cookbook seeks answers to questions similar to “What’s the deal with airline food?” through an exploration of the appropriated and golden-brown culture of food within the United States. Seventeen heavily opinionated recipes compose the book, ranging from hors d'oeuvres to dessert.
