A collection of recipes, techniques and stories that highlight the globally inspired cuisine of the acclaimed restaurant in Red Hook, Brooklyn

Description

For more than 10 years, The Good Fork has been one of Brooklyn's favourite restaurants. It's a neighbourhood spot that offers a rare treat in the crowded, slick New York food scene: a restaurant that feels like home.

Chef Sohui Kim and her husband live down the block, blurring the lines between their kitchen at home and the restaurant kitchen. The Good Fork Cookbook is packed with Kim's recipes for flavourful, globally inspired cuisine that a home cook can make any night of the week.

Her influences and techniques range from French and Italian to American and Korean, but every dish is comforting, unfussy: Pork Dumplings; Korean-Style Steak and Eggs with Kimchee Rice and Fried Eggs; Buttermilk Fried Chicken and Waffles; and more.

The Good Fork Cookbook shares the recipes that made The Good Fork Brooklyn's favourite mom-and-pop shop.

Book Hero Magic summarised reviews for this book. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! HOW HAS THIS BEEN REVIEWED?

The Good Fork Cookbook by Sohui Kim receives high praise for its unique fusion of Korean and contemporary American flavours, with reviewers admiring Kim's ability to infuse her recipes with both personal and cultural significance. The book is celebrated for its soulful and welcoming nature, providing a wonderful narrative of love and perseverance alongside its imaginative, delicious recipes. Critics also appreciate the way in which it offers home cooks the opportunity to recreate the comfort and warmth of Kim's celebrated dishes from The Good Fork restaurant in their own kitchens.
