About this ebook
Make Food Great with Just One Ingredient
Alcohol isn’t just an accompaniment to a great meal, but the secret ingredient to make dishes pop with flavor, added depth and complexity. Emily and Matt Clifton, founders of the blog Nerds with Knives, show you how to use vodka to make extra crispy batter in Ultra-Crispy Fish with Vodka and Beer Batter, heighten the aroma of the spicy, garlicky sauce in the Tequila and Lime Shrimp Scampi and bring perfect balance to dishes like Vermouth-Braised Leeks or Classic Chicken Piccata just by adding white wine.
Through their knowledge of boozy cooking science, you’ll make classic dishes that pack a delicious punch. So put on your apron, pop a cork, raise your glass and get ready to cook.

Reviews for Cork and Knife
2 ratings1 review
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5In this recipe collection, the authors transform approximately 75 foods from good to great by incorporating various alcoholic beverages: wine, beer and sake; whisky, vodka, gin, rum and tequila; fortified wines and specialty liquors. They begin each recipe with a short introduction about the dish or its place in their lives, followed by a list of ingredients (some quite lengthy) and preparation instructions (also sometimes lengthy, though not necessarily complicated), accompanied by a full-color, full-page photo of the prepared dish, beautifully styled. Yields are usually 4-8 servings and prep time can be estimated by reading the instructions. No nutritional info is given, but it’s clear this is heartier fare.I love lush cookbooks as much for the pleasure of armchair-cooking as for the actual cooking, and this is the most savory, mouth-watering cookbook I’ve read. But it also inspires me into the kitchen -- first up will be the bourbon sloppy joes; Brussels sprouts with hard cider/bacon/walnuts; and the berry/lemon-curd/Limoncello tarts.(Review based on a copy of the book provided by the publisher.)
