While shopping at my membership shop-o-world-a-ramma, I could NOT restrain myself from buying some truly massive cuts of meat. I got this pork loin that was as tall as my 3 year old, no kidding. As a consequence, when I strolled past the cookbook isle, pushing my straining cart and skipping over the trail of popcorn dropped by said three year old, the “Essentials of Roasting” by Williams and Sonoma caught my eye.
Look at the cover of this hefty book, could you resist? Pure eye candy.
The eye candy is all over the book, glistening roasted morsels of all kinds adorn the pages. There are plenty of useful photo series too of how to truss a bird or roll up a roulade, etc. The photography in this beautiful book was done by Noel Barnhurst. Mr. Barnhurst’s portfolio site reveals more of his delicious images and that he has worked for some of the best food magazines like Bon Appettit, other Williams and Sonoma titles, Williams and Sonoma catalogs, Eat + Drink, etc. I have a whole lot to learn from him.
