Fewer ingredients, big-time flavors.

Put down the long grocery lists. Food52’s Big Little Recipes is minimalism at its absolute best (and most delicious). Inspired by Food52’s award-winning column by Emma Laperruque, this clever cookbook features 60 new recipes that’ll deliver wow-worthy results in five, four, three...or, yep, even two ingredients. From chewy-dreamy oatmeal cookies to pasta sauce you’ll want by the gallon, it's action-packed with crowd pleasers, plus smart techniques and plenty of tricks—showing just how much you can accomplish with essentials you can count on one hand.

And in the true spirit of getting the most out of every last bit, there’s no shortage of extras too. You’ll find tons of need-to-know tips, mini recipe spreads, and choose-your-own-adventure charts to give meal-planning a burst of energy. There are shortcuts for days: a fervent case made for simpler (but just as rich!) homemade stock, a loving ode to canned tuna, a very good reason to always have bananas in your freezer, and more. It'll be your new sidekick for every meal—it's got fresh-as-heck salads and brothy comfort foods, brawny meats, briny fishes, and hearty veggie dishes that’ll take center stage. It's a choose-your-own-adventure cookbook if ever there was one. Short and sweet: Big Little Recipes shows busy home cooks how to turn less into more.
