The Lazy Genius Kitchen

“A Lazy Genius is a genius about the things that matter and lazy about the things that don't.”

There you go.

That's the heart of this book. The philosophy behind The Lazy Genius Kitchen reminds me of my pediatrician who told me, “You as mom know your child best. Trust your gut.” That's what this book does: this book encourages us as cooks, at whatever skill level we fall, to trust our gut when it comes to knowing what we like to eat, to knowing how much trouble we want to go to in our cooking, to knowing what things we need in our kitchen to get the desired result. This book is a confidence builder, and it relies on doing a few simple things to clear out the clutter that has accumulated in our cooking brains from all the other books we've read and shows we've watched and advice we have been given.

Well worth the couple of hours I spent with this little book.
