Good food is all about love, joy, and connection. The cooking lessons that stick with us and the recipes we reach for most are often the ones we pick up as we spend time with friends, family, and good cooks in the kitchen. Dorothy Kalins, founding editor of Saveur magazine, calls the people who pass on their cooking wisdom her "Kitchen Whisperers." Her memoir of the same name is a beautiful tribute to the incredible cooks in our lives and the lessons they've imparted. The Kitchen Whisperers is filled with stories about "real people who cook real food" and shares tips, skills, and recipes from heavy hitters in the culinary community. Kalins's memoir will inspire you to reflect on the food mentors in your life each time you enter your own kitchen.
