In his debut cookbook, Chef John Tesar tells you how to have the best steakhouse meal you’ve ever eaten—in your home kitchen. Infused with the flavor of Texas and Tesar’s culinary genius, this book reveals Tesar’s "back to the pan" method for cooking the perfect steak. Tesar doesn’t stop at steak, though; this book is full of recipes and techniques for cooking lamb, pork, veal, burgers, along with recipes for sides, salads, starters, and foolproof versions of classic sauces. Tesar also provides a comprehensive guide to cuts and breeds, and gives portraits of top producers. KNIFE is devoted to the celebration of steak in every form, with recipes for your favorite juicy cuts, as well as techniques for making mouthwatering dishes from underrated cheaper cuts. Tesar blends old school techniques and new cooking methods to cook meat like you’ve never had it before.
