Good Things: Recipes and Rituals to Share with People You Love

New York Times Bestseller — A Best Book of the Year: The New Yorker, Bon Appétit, Washington Post, Smithsonian Magazine

From the author of Salt, Fat, Acid, Heat — 125 meticulously tested, flavor-forward recipes that bring joy, nourishment, and a sense of communion to the table.

Samin Nosrat has always believed that cooking is about more than food. It's about connection — the thread that runs between the person who made a dish and the person who receives it. In Good Things, she shares the recipes she loves most: the ones she makes for herself on quiet evenings, the ones she brings to friends in need, and the ones she pulls out when the table is full and the night is long.

Inside you'll find:

• Ricotta custard pancakes and sky-high focaccia
• Saffron-burnished roast chicken
• Crunchy, tingly Calabrian chili crisp
• A decades-in-the-making yellow cake with chocolate frosting
• 125+ recipes with tips, techniques, and lessons woven throughout

"Recipes, like rituals, endure because they're passed down to us. A written recipe is just a shimmering decoy for the true inheritance: the thread of connection that cooking it will unspool." — Samin Nosrat

Whether you're consoling a friend with tomato soup, hosting ten in a too-small dining room, or simply cooking for yourself, Good Things is an essential, joyful guide to cooking and living well.
