If you are a cookbook connoisseur, you will definitely want to check out Chef Amanda Cohens refreshing new take on cook-booking. Her brand new book, Dirt Candy. A Cookbook. features a long list of recipes inspired by her NYC-based restaurant. But unlike most cookbooks, there is not even one photograph. Instead the book is filled with comics! The smart and sassy comic book style turns out to be quite fun and brilliant. Glossy food photos are replaced with sassy, smart, laugh-outloud comics featuring stories and recipes. Check out a few pages from the book and get details to enter a Dirt Candy book giveaway!..

In the book, Amanda shares her journey as a chef-turned-restaurant-owner. She also shares many of her award-winning vegetarian recipes. As for the storytelling, it is highly entertaining. Amanda has had some adventures! Including being on Iron Chef America (and getting stuck in the elevator after losing to Chef Morimoto) had Martha Stewart visit her tiny restaurant and many more.
