Back to the Family: Food Tastes Better Shared with the Ones You Love

by Art Smith

Overview

Back to the Family is a companion to Art Smith's New York Times bestseller and James Beard award-winning cookbook, Back to the Table. Smith is the personal chef to Oprah Winfrey and a contributing editor to O Magazine. This book encourages readers to better understand the importance of valuing the ones you love through cooking and communing with food. Most importantly Back to the Family stresses the importance of recognizing old food traditions (family recipes, meals, memories, etc.) and the equal importance of creating new and healthier food traditions.

Editorial Reviews

This back-to-the-hearth cookbook belongs on the shelf next to Art Smith's James Beard Award-winning Back to the Table. Like its companion book, Back to the Family emphasizes home-style cooking; but even more than its predecessor, it spotlights the continuity of family food traditions. The 150 tempting family recipes are quilted into a fabric of memories, testimonials, and suggestions for creating new and often healthier food traditions.
