More About This Book

Overview

A trailblazing chef reinvents the art of cooking over fire.

Gloriously inspired recipes push the boundaries of live-fired cuisine in this primal yet sophisticated cookbook introducing the incendiary dishes of South America's biggest culinary star. Chef Francis Mallmann—born in Patagonia and trained in France's top restaurants—abandoned the fussy fine dining scene for the more elemental experience of cooking with fire. But his fans followed, including the world's top food journalists and celebrities, such as Francis Ford Coppola, Madonna, and Ralph Lauren, traveling to Argentina and Uruguay to experience the dashing chef's astonishing—and delicious—wood-fired feats.

The seven fires of the title refer to a series of grilling techniques that have been singularly adapted for the home cook. So you can cook Signature Mallmann dishes—like Whole Boneless Ribeye with Chimichuri; Salt-Crusted Striped Bass; Whole Roasted Andean Pumpkin with Mint and Goat Cheese Salad; and desserts such as Dulce de Leche Pancakes—indoors or out in any season. Evocative photographs showcase both the recipes and the exquisite beauty of Mallmann's home turf in Patagonia, Buenos Aires, and rural Uruguay. Seven Fires is a must for any griller ready to explore food's next frontier.

Winner of the 2010 James Beard Foundation Book Award for Photography

Editorial Reviews

Christopher Kimball
Mallmann is a well-known South American chef who, born in Patagonia, grew up in the Andes. The simplicity of the food—cooked over wood-burning fires—is striking. Over and over, I found myself thinking, "Gee, I can make that!" Sure, the locations are breathtaking and this guy Mallmann is clearly über-rich and stylish, but, that being said, the food reaches out of his spectacular photographs and grabs one with the raw power of authenticity and hearty appeal. No tricks here, no silly ingredients, no nonsense. I heartily recommend this book for anyone tired of the same-old backyard barbecue.
— Founder and Editor, America's Test Kitchen

"Seven Fires is, in its essence, a love letter to Argentina's obsession with fire and food."

"Mallmann cooks with the elegant purity achieved only after attaining a mastery of complicated food. I craved Mallmann’s burnt flavors, from caramelized oranges with rosemary to flattened sweet potatoes charred in butter. Bobby Flay, be very afraid." —Christine Muhlke
The New York Times Book Review
"[Mallmann] reconnects us to the primal simplicity and visceral pleasure of cooking over a fire."
Christine Muhlke
Mallmann cooks with the elegant purity achieved only after attaining a mastery of complicated food…What makes Mallmann so punk is that he makes six ingredients taste better than 20…He also reconnects us to the primal simplicity and visceral pleasure of cooking over a fire—though his recipes can be made over charcoal or in a grill pan, too.
—The New York Times

Francis Mallmann is the most famous and popular chef in South America. He has three restaurants: one in Mendoza, Argentina's wine country, another in the La Boca neighborhood of Buenos Aires, and the third in the picturesque village of Garzon, Uruguay. USA Today and The Times of London have named his restaurants among the top ten places to eat in the world. He spends whatever free time he has in a remote cabin retreat in deep Patagonia where he cooks over live fire and writes and reads poetry.

Peter Kaminsky is a cookbook author and a New York Times columnist, and was the Underground Gourmet for New York magazine. He has written books with chefs Gray Kunz, Daniel Boulud, and Fabio Trabocchi. He lives in New York City.

    We had been looking for Argentinian recipes and had difficulty finding a good source. This book turned out to be just what we needed. Keep in mind that you don't need to build a bonfire to cook with. A small fire pit works wonders.

    Outdoor cooking, not just grilling

    This book presents not only some very good recipes but a new way of thinking about outdoor cooking. I have tried many of the recipes and have not yet found one that was not great. I love that in general the ingrediants lists are short, and the approach is simple and direct.
