There is a huge difference
between cooking something on a grill and cooking something over a roaring fire
in a fire pit, fire box, etc. Michael Chiarello takes you through those
differences and how to do it safely and well in this book with the subtitle
of “125 recipes for cooking outdoors.”
While there are some recipes suitable for the grill, this book is aimed at those
who want to cook over open flames.
Along with technique tips
regarding different types of wood, equipment, and other topics, the recipes
drive this book. Main and side dishes are covered, as are recipes for appetizers,
pizzas, breakfast, drinks, and many more tasty suggestions. While no
nutritional information is included in this excellent 225 page book, there are
pages for resources and an extensive index. Michael Chiarello's Live Fire is an
excellent cookbook full of pictures and text designed to assist cooks who want
to step up their culinary skills.
