Smokin'

Smokin' shows home cooks how to bring the flavor of wood smoke into their everyday cooking without a backyard smoker. The method relies on a stovetop smoker that sits on the burner, and the book covers what a cook needs to know to smoke food indoors.

The collection includes 36 master recipes for smoking a wide range of foods, from whole chickens to shrimp, along with 95 recipes for soups, salads, and side dishes that use smoked ingredients. Examples include Tea-Smoked Duck, Smoked Eggplant Soup, and Fettuccine with Smoky Salmon, Peas, and Leeks.

Christopher Styler's practical guidance on techniques and tips keeps the process quick and uncomplicated. The recipes are meant for anyone who wants to build smoky flavor into a meal, with room for personal experimentation.
