John Ash believes that the best way to become a confident, creative cook is to plunge right in, explore the possibilities, and learn as you go. John Ash: Cooking One-on-0ne presents his liberating approach in 22 lessons, each one focusing on a specific technique, underused or unusual ingredient, or a flavor maker--the vinaigrettes, salsas, and other components that turn ordinary dishes into something special.

Each lesson opens with an essay that deepens the reader's understanding and appreciation of the technique, ingredient, or extra component. Ash then provides simple recipes and explains how to build on them to develop a personal repertoire of dishes both plain and fancy. His sensational recipes for fresh, satisfying California-style food will inspire readers to new heights of culinary inventiveness.
