A classic Spanish cookbook from Jos Andr s, a humanitarian, James Beard Award winner, New York Times bestselling author, and one of TIME's 100 Most Influential People.

Using simple Mediterranean ingredients, a tapas feast is a perfect combination of little dishes packed with big flavors.
Tapas by Jos Andr s is the first major book in a generation to celebrate this world-renowned way of eating, from a man who is the best possible authority: an award-winning Spanish chef in America, with seven highly acclaimed restaurants to his name. Named
Bon App tit's Chef of the Year, Jos is a star in American cooking, as well as the nation's leading expert on Spanish cuisine. Having worked as a chef in the United States for two decades, he's also a thoroughly American cook who draws on American ingredients for his inspiration, and is a master at translating his native Spanish cooking for this country's kitchens. His simple and delicious recipes include:
- Fish such as American Red Snapper Baked in Salt; Monkfish with Romesco Sauce; and Basque-Style Stuffed Maryland Blue Crabs
- Chicken including Catalan-Style Chicken Stew; Chicken Saut ed with Garlic; and Chicken with Lobster
- Pork such as Chorizo Stewed in Hard Cider; Figs with Spanish Ham; and Roasted Pork Tenderloin with Apples
- Rice dishes including Lobster Paella; Black Rice with Squid and Shrimp; and Traditional Rice with Clams
All these recipes are full of tremendous flavor and creativity, as well as in-depth ingredient notes and a rich atmosphere that will transport you to the lush countryside, hip caf s, and sun-drenched coasts of Spain--and back again to dinner at home.
