The Minimalist Kitchen: 100 Wholesome Recipes,… par Melissa Coleman
Trying to do some Spring Cleaning? Need to declutter your kitchen? Tired of having no counter space? Then read this book. I like how Coleman gives you a breakdown of the kitchen items you need, while also explaining what they do. The book was enjoyable and gave me multiple ideas on what to do with my Kitchen and Pantry. Definitely will be working on cooking some of those recipes.

Coleman opens the book with an introduction to minimalism and the minimalist kitchen, including how to minimize tools, pantry items and techniques. I love her quotation of Leonard Koren (from his book, Wabi-Sabi for Artists, Designers, Poets & Philosophers): “Pare down to the essence, but don’t remove the poetry.” It captures why minimalism so satisfies me -- it’s not austerity; it’s a simplicity that promotes efficiency and frees me to appreciate my world.
It’s a beautiful book, well organized and formatted with some opening remarks to each recipe and then clear preparation instructions and tips, accompanied by a tantalizing, full-color photo of the prepared dish. There is no nutritional info, but these are hip-comfort foods (familiar but modern), not calorie-laden gourmet dishes. They are “normal” recipes; each includes an estimate of prep time (hands-on time and total time) and they’re generally not 5-ingredients/15-minutes nor the opposite.
Recommended for cooks who want some inspiration AND for “armchair cooks,” who love to read cookbooks cover-to-cover.

The Minimalist Kitchen is a cheerful, straightforward honest cookbook aimed to help home cooks pare down to the real essentials, and still have the ability to make a wide variety of meals.
I like minimalist design, and I like simple, clean dishes. This was a great book, although I did find a lot of recipes that I have seen before.
