In Ad Hoc at Home, Chef Thomas Keller turns his imagination to the American comfort foods closest to his heart – flaky biscuits, chicken pot pies, New England clam bakes, and cherry pies so delicious and redolent of childhood that they give Proust’s madeleines a run for their money. In this cookbook, Chef Keller showcases more than 200 recipes for family-style meals inspired by the menu of his casual restaurant, Ad Hoc, in Yountville. Best of all, where Bouchon and The French Laundry were for the ambitious, advanced cook, Ad Hoc at Home is filled with quicker and easier recipes that will be embraced by both kitchen novices and at-home chefs alike.
