How to cook everything fast is the latest in the practical How to Cook Everything series by Mark Bittman, bestselling author, lead food writer for The New York Times Magazine, and a columnist for the Times Dining section. Here, “fast” ranges from fifteen to forty-five minutes, and “everything” extends to some two thousand recipes. Focusing as much on how to choose the best ingredients as on how and when to prep them most efficiently, Bittman shows that fast food doesn’t have to come in a box—you can make it from scratch.

Bittman will be in conversation with Joe Yonan, the Food editor of The Washington Post and author of Eat Your Vegetables.
