Michel Richard’s latest cookbook, Happy in the Kitchen, is characterized by two of the celebrated chef’s most well-known attributes: captivating charm and unmistakable talent. Cooks of all abilities will be able to appreciate his innovative techniques, whether it means poaching with plastic or substituting thinly sliced onions for pasta. As Richard reveals his secrets for culinary perfection, he unleashes his liveliness as well, with recipes for “Figgy Piggy,?“Shrimp Einstein,?and “Jolly Green Brussels Sprouts.?Indeed, Richard’s legendary playfulness alleviates any intimidation one might feel from the book’s more challenging recipes. With his exuberant take on culinary creation, Richard is as wonderfully delightful as his dishes are exceptionally delicious.
