A delicious collection of classic, midwestern family recipes updated with modern spins and ingredients--from one of Instagram's favorite farmers, Kaleb Wyse.
When Kaleb Wyse started documenting his daily life on his farm in Iowa, he didn't think many people would take notice or even care. After all, his way of life is simple, guided by the seasons--he spends his days gardening, preserving, baking, and cooking, a rhythm not all that different from that of his parents, grandparents, and even great-grandparents who worked the land before him.
But it turns out that people from all over the country (and even the world) connected with Kaleb's simple, back-to-basics way of living, and fell in love with his hearty, homestyle cooking. From casseroles to biscuits, his recipes hit the sweet spot of nostalgia for some--and are a breath of fresh air for others.
In his debut cookbook, Kaleb shares his midwestern family recipes, updated for the way we eat today:
From breakfasts and main courses to side dishes and desserts, the timeless food in this cookbook will appeal to every generation. Kaleb's philosophy behind his recipes is simple: the dishes must be reminiscent of those prepared by his mom, grandmas, or even great-grandmas; the ingredients have to be readily available in his southeastern Iowa grocery stores (meaning that they'd be available for pretty much anyone else); and the end result needs to be no-nonsense and taste amazing.
This delightful cookbook is a reminder that it's ok to slow down and keep it simple in the kitchen--the result with Kaleb's recipes will always be comforting, classic, and delicious.
A relatable personal finance guide that gives a fresh take on how to control your impulse spending so you can stick to a budget and pay off debt, without the guilt and shame of traditional financial advice--from the hosts of the beloved Frugal Friends podcast.
There's a lot of noise out there about how to spend (and not spend) your hard-earned money. But what if you made financial decisions based on what you value--instead of what others are telling you to value?
This is the empowering approach Jen Smith and Jill Sirianni, hosts of the Frugal Friends podcast, want you to take to improve your spending habits. They believe you can value anything (yes, anything!), whether that's a daily latte, fancy dinners out, or vacations. But, despite what social media is saying, you don't value everything.
The Frugal Friends' wisdom comes from personal experience: Jen paid off $78,000 of debt in two years without a six-figure income, while Jill has a background in social work and downsized to an RV to pay off student loans. Together, their advice is both relatable and actionable.
In their debut book, they share a plan for sifting through what's not important to find the things you truly love spending money on. You'll learn how to
From credit card and student loan debt to the rising costs of childcare and homes; it has never been more important to get control of your spending. Jen and Jill show you how to do it in a way that's healthy, not shameful, while exploring topics like overconsumption, self-worth, and the insidious history behind our consumption-obsessed culture.
If you want to reach your goals and feel good about your finances, Buy What You Love Without Going Broke offers a holistic approach to reshape the way you think about spending money.

Ever feel like you're hanging on by a thread?
From the climate crisis, to racism, to gun violence, to attacks on LGBTQ+ rights, the list of issues facing this country goes on and on, and it's only natural to feel anxious about the state of our union. Even if you vote, march, volunteer, and donate, feelings of hopelessness (and helplessness) still creep in.
Crafting a Better World is a new kind of call to action: a guidebook for combatting fatigue and frustration with the handmade. Whether that's sewing a welcome blanket for new immigrants, or making a batch of vulva chocolates to raise money at a bake sale for abortion access, this book will teach you how to transform your anxiety into action.
Curated by Diana Weymar, the creator of the Tiny Pricks Project, who knows what it means to meld craft and activism. On Jan. 8, 2018, she stitched I am a very stable genius (a Donald Trump quote) into a piece of her grandmother's abandoned needlework from the 1960s and posted it to Instagram. Since then, she's turned her embroidery practice into a material record of the trials facing this country and become a leading voice in the movement to save our democracy.
Featuring essays, exclusive profiles of well-known creatives, and projects that readers can create by themselves or with their communities, this book is a means to stay engaged, make stuff, and hold ourselves together as we navigate this uncertain personal and political landscape. With contributions from artists and activists, including:
Crafting a Better World is a response to this unique moment in time when so many feel, in equal measure, deep anxiety and deep hope. So pick up a needle, a pen, a spatula--anything--and craft the change you want to see in the world.
Award-winning chefs and bestselling authors of the James Beard Award-winning Zahav, Michael Solomonov and Steven Cook invite you to cook the way they do at home, with 125 new recipes for simple and achievable meals.
Since opening Zahav (the beloved, award-winning, and critically acclaimed restaurant in Philadelphia that serves a powerfully flavorful menu inspired by modern Israeli cuisine) fifteen years ago, co-owners chef Michael Solomonov and Steven Cook have learned at least two things: cooking at home isn't anything like cooking at the restaurant, and, how to bring Zahav's signature ideas to the home kitchen.
As busy fathers, Mike and Steve have also learned that thinking ahead is key. Their secret: a strategically stocked pantry. Then it's nothing, for example, to slather amba from a jar onto a spatchcocked chicken for an almost-instant roast chicken dinner, or to cook a leg of lamb coated with harissa (also from a jar!) in one pot--on a school night! When they make soups, with all the intense flavors they use at the restaurant, they make a lot of soup, always thinking of the freezer and those busy nights when there's no time to cook.
Even more than Zahav, their trailblazing first book, Zahav Home is a truly intimate affair--an invitation right into Mike's and Steve's home kitchens, with recipes tried and tested by them and their families. The 125 all-new recipes in this book include robust salads, abundant vegetables, hearty soups, easy lunches, and weeknight meals that taste as if they took hours to make. There are Sunday dinners, unforgettable desserts, and more, including:
You'll find features throughout titled Making that visually break recipes down into easy step-by-step, as well as Method, highlighting a foundational recipe, technique, or tip that can be used flexibly in countless dishes, like Schug, Garlic Confit, and some Hard-Cooked Egg Wisdom. Colorful and full of flavor, vitality, and warmth, Zahav Home is a treasure and worth its weight in gold (the meaning of Zahav!)

Grab your baguette, butter, Castelvetrano olives, flaky salt, and a little glass of chilled wine--it's tinned fish time!

It can sit in your cupboard for years and still be at its best on its fifth birthday. It's a versatile, protein-packed, convenient ingredient.

A charming, life-changing guide to living a longer, happier, healthier life, rooted in Korean self-care. From the country scientists predict will top longevity charts in 2030.
Ssukgat, or Chrysanthemum greens, are treasured in Korean culture for their healing abilities. You can coax its withered stalks to bloom again, with sun, water, soil, and care. It's a fitting metaphor for eco-entrepreneur and CEO Michelle Jungmin Bang, who found herself in excruciating pain due to the constant sacrificing of her health and wellness for work--a trade many of us make daily.
Thus started her fascinating journey to overhaul her health and reconnect with her heritage in South Korea. She found answers in the mountains with Buddhist nuns and the keys to microbiome health, a seaside village with haenyeo (female free divers who forage for seafood) and their practice of healing with breath, centenarians with easily adoptable daily habits, and Korean bathhouse culture and its wellness for everyone approach to youthful skin. Natural, effective, and environmentally conscious, these traditions have been passed down for centuries in Asia, like gifted heirlooms, and they quietly and radically shift our philosophies on well-being towards preventative care.
Informed by her travels, research, and East-West nutrition training, Michelle reflects on how we can eat for healing, live sustainably, reconnect with nature, form deeper relationships with the Korean concept of Jeong (the warm, invisible connection between loved ones and places), and more. Also included are simple and delicious healing recipes that can be used for recovery, like a mushroom broth the Buddhist nuns turn to for colds; her grandmother's secret Myeolchi (anchovy) broth; Samgyetang (chicken and ginseng soup) for combatting fatigue; as well as Hoedeopbap (raw fish bibimbap), her most-requested dish that requires no cooking.
Stunningly written and accompanied by Michelle's gorgeously hand-drawn illustrations and infographics, Sun & Ssukgat is on a mission to empower anyone stuck in the unhealthy whirlwind of modern life to transform our well-being in the little things we do every single day.

Kiera Wright-Ruiz's My (Half) Latinx Kitchen is entirely singular: hilarious and poignant in its stories, precise and flavorful in its recipes, the book is a gem of memory and feeling for where you've been, where you're going, and how you find yourself in between. -Bryan Washington, author of Family Meal and Memorial
You're invited on this culinary journey of self-discovery as Kiera Wright-Ruiz connects to her Latinx roots with recipes and stories from the diaspora.
What are you? is a dreaded question that has followed Kiera Wright-Ruiz around her entire life. She is half Latinx and half Asian, and her journey to understand her identity has been far from linear. Though she is a first-generation American, she didn't grow up in a home where many traditions from her family's home countries were passed down by her parents. Kiera's childhood was complicated, and the role of caregiver was played by various people in her life: from her mom and dad to her grandparents and foster parents. Many of whom were from all different parts of Latin America, and each of them taught Kiera something about what it means to be Latinx through their food.
This cookbook is the story of Kiera's journey to embrace her identity and all her cultures: Latinx, Asian, and American. It's a celebration of Latin American food in all its vibrant, flavorful glory, and a love letter to the diaspora. From Ecuador to South Florida, Mexico to Cuba, the recipes in this book are as diverse and unique as the cultures themselves with dishes like:
Kiera also weaves in charming personal essays to accompany the recipes--from the story of how tamale soup helped bring her family together again after being separated in foster care, to their tradition of bringing visiting relatives from Mexico to what she considers the most American place: Medieval Times.
This one-of-a-kind cookbook featuring 100 inventive recipes shows how being half can ultimately lead to being whole. It will inspire you in the kitchen and expose you to a different kind of first-generation story, one that's never been told before.

Perfect for an everyday meal at home, yet sophisticated, elegant, and visually stunning to impress any guest.
At the heart of each of the 100 recipes in Family Style are imaginative and personally unique flavor combinations. There are beloved nods to his grandma's Cantonese flavor profiles, his mom's deep love of French food, his Bay Area upbringing, and desserts that are not too sweet--the highest compliment in his family--and more, with recipes including:
A reflection of Peter's signature sensibility, Family Style is a beautiful and joyful invitation to celebrate with the flavors of his life.
