The Red Rooster Cookbook

release date: Oct 18, 2016
The Red Rooster Cookbook
Southern comfort food and multicultural recipes from the New York Times best-selling superstar chef Marcus Samuelsson''s iconic Harlem restaurant. When the James Beard Award-winning chef Marcus Samuelsson opened Red Rooster on Malcolm X Boulevard in Harlem, he envisioned more than a restaurant. It would be the heart of his neighborhood and a meet-and-greet for both the downtown and the uptown sets, serving Southern black and cross-cultural food. It would reflect Harlem''s history. Ever since the 1930s, Harlem has been a magnet for more than a million African Americans, a melting pot for Spanish, African, and Caribbean immigrants, and a mecca for artists. These traditions converge on Rooster''s menu, with Brown Butter Biscuits, Chicken and Waffle, Killer Collards, and Donuts with Sweet Potato Cream. They''re joined by global-influenced dishes such as Jerk Bacon and Baked Beans, Latino Pork and Plantains, and Chinese Steamed Bass and Fiery Noodles. Samuelsson''s Swedish-Ethiopian background shows in Ethiopian Spice-Crusted Lamb, Slow-Baked Blueberry Bread with Spiced Maple Syrup, and the Green Viking, sprightly Apple Sorbet with Caramel Sauce. Interspersed with lyrical essays that convey the flavor of the place and stunning archival and contemporary photos, The Red Rooster Cookbook is as layered as its inheritance.

Aquavit

release date: Oct 02, 2003
Aquavit
In this long-awaited book, Marcus Samuelsson introduces the simple techniques and exciting combinations that have won him worldwide acclaim and placed Scandinavian cooking at the forefront of the culinary scene. Whether it''s a freshly interpreted Swedish classic or a dramatically original creation, each one of the dishes has been flawlessly recreated for the home cook. Every recipe has a masterful touch that makes it strikingly new: the contrasting temperatures of Warm Beef Carpaccio in Mushroom Tea, the pleasing mix of creamy and crunchy textures in Radicchio, Bibb, and Blue Cheese Salad, the cornflake coating on a delightful rendition of Marcus''s favorite "junk food," Crispy Potatoes. In "The Raw and the Cured," Marcus presents the cornerstone dishes of the Scandinavian repertoire, from a traditional Gravlax with Mustard Sauce (which gets just the right balance from a little coffee) to the internationally inspired Pickled Herring Sushi-Style. The clean, precise flavors of this food are reminiscent of Japanese cuisine but draw upon accessible Western ingredients. Marcus shows how to prepare foolproof dinners for festive occasions: Crispy Duck with Glogg Sauce, Herb-Roasted Rack of Lamb, and Prune-Stuffed Pork Roast. Step by step, offering many suggestions for substitutions and shortcuts, he guides you through the signature dishes that have made Aquavit famous, like Dill-Crusted Arctic Char with Pinot Noir Sauce, Pan-Roasted Venison Chops with Fruit and Berry Chutney, and Fois Gras "Ganache." But you''ll also find dozens of homey, comforting dishes that Marcus learned from his grandmother, like Swedish Roast Chicken with Spiced Apple Rice, Chilled Potato-Chive Soup, Blueberry Bread, Corn Mashed Potatoes, ethereal Swedish Meatballs with Quick Pickled Cucumbers, and Swedish Pancakes with Lingonberry Whipped Cream. From simplest-ever snacks like Sweet and Salty Pine Nuts and Barbecued Boneless Ribs, to satisfying sandwiches like Gravlax Club, to vibrant jams and salsas and homemade flavored aquavits, Marcus Samuelsson''s best recipes are here. Lavishly photographed, Aquavit and the New Scandinavian Cuisine provides all the inspiration and know-how needed for stunning success in the kitchen.

The Rise
An Eater Best Cookbook of Fall 2020 • This groundbreaking new cookbook from chef, bestselling author, and TV star Marcus Samuelsson celebrates contemporary Black cooking in 150 extraordinarily delicious recipes. It is long past time to recognize Black excellence in the culinary world the same way it has been celebrated in the worlds of music, sports, literature, film, and the arts.

Driven by a desire to fight against bias, reclaim Black culinary traditions, and energize a new generation of cooks, Marcus shares his own journey alongside 150 recipes in honor of dozens of top chefs, writers, and activists—with stories exploring their creativity and influence.

Pois não, chef

release date: Oct 01, 2013
Pois não, chef
Pois não, chef relata a fantástica trajetória do aclamado etíope Marcus Samuelsson, da cozinha de sua família adotiva na Suécia, aos mais exigentes e implacáveis restaurantes na Suíça e na França, dos penosos bicos em cruzeiros até sua chegada em Nova York, onde conquistou, aos 24 anos, as cobiçadas três estrelas da crítica do The New York Times a frente do badalado Acquavit. Dono do Red Rooster – restaurante no Harlem que reinventou a cozinha americana e reúne desde políticos até músicos de jazz e trabalhadores da região, Samuelsson faz uma ode à comida e à família, em todas as suas manifestações. O livro começa com Marcus – nascido Kassahun – falando da mãe africana, Ahnu, e de sua origem humilde. Naturais de uma pequena aldeia etíope chamada Abrugandana, ele, a irmã Linda – nascida Fantaye – e a mãe levavam uma vida extremamente simples, na qual um par de sapatos era considerado luxo. Em 1972, um surto de tuberculose se espalhou pela Etiópia, selando o destino de Ahnu e seus dois filhos. Ahnu não sobreviveu e os órfãos foram levados para a Europa e adotados pelo casal Samuelsson. A adaptação em Gotemburgo, na Suécia, levaria alguns meses. Aos poucos, os irmãos criaram fortes laços com os Samuelsson e se integraram à família. A proximidade com a avó materna, que tinha talento natural para a cozinha, e a convivência com os parentes do pai, que vinha de uma linhagem de pescadores, despertaram em Marcus a paixão pela culinária. O futuro chef entrou para o curso de gastronomia na escola técnica Ester Mosessom, determinado a se tornar o melhor na profissão. Foi em Nova York que Marcus alcançaria a tão sonhada promoção a chef executivo do Aquavit. Sob o seu comando, o restaurante receberia a mais alta avaliação do jornal The New York Times. Anos depois, Samuelsson levaria o Beard Awards, considerado o Oscar da gastronomia.

Sparkles with color, intriguing recipes, and informative tidbits inspired by the research Samuelsson conducted." —Chicago Tribune "A loving, enticing tribute to a continent that [Samuelsson] believes represents, foodwise, the next big thing. . . . Captures the traditional recipes of countries from Morocco to South Africa, and also includes Samuelsson''s spin on the flavors he encountered." —O, The Oprah Magazine "American cooks have explored many parts of the world in their kitchens, but one continent is almost entirely missing from our repertoires—Africa. . . . Marcus Samuelsson may change that single-handedly." —San Francisco Chronicle
