Kindness & Salt: Recipes for the Care & Feeding of Your Friends & Neighbors. Available at French Louie and Buttermilk Channel and at a bookstore near you.
Brooklyn restaurateurs Doug Crowell and Ryan Angulo believe that every great meal starts with two essential elements: kindness and salt. Kindness is the spirit of warmth and hospitality that underlies every meal at their restaurants. Salt is shorthand for cooking carefully and brining out the best in your ingredients.
Kindness & Salt expertly guides the home cook through simple, satisfying meals from two of Brooklyn’s most beloved neighborhood bistros and brings the spirit of their dining rooms into your home.
Here you’ll find recipes for all their most popular dishes, from Buttermilk Channel’s Pecan Pie French Toast and Fried Chicken with Cheddar Waffles, to French Louie’s Steak Frites and Bananas Foster Profiteroles. Plus, guides on making fresh ricotta, throwing a bloody mary party, frying the perfect french fry, and putting together a home bar.
“The recipes in Kindness & Salt — like the restaurants themselves — beg to be returned to again and again.”
— Danny Meyer: CEO of Union Square Hospitality Group
