Bobby Flay Visits Scottsdale on September 25th for Book Tour

Posted on: August 31st, 2011 by Amy Martin 1 Comment

On September 25th, head to Sur la Table at Kierland Commons for The Bar Americain Cookbook Book Tour. Bobby Flay will be present to host a Q&A from 11am-11:30am with the book signing following at 11:30am-2pm.

The tour kicks off in New Jersey on September 20th with the release of the new cookbook. Read the synopsis below:

When Bobby Flay looks at a map of the United States, he doesn’t see states—he sees ingredients: wild Alaskan king salmon, tiny Maine blueberries, fiery southwestern chiles. The Food Network celebrity and renowned chef-restaurateur created his Bar Americain restaurants as our country’s answer to French bistros—to celebrate America’s regional flavors and dishes, interpreted as only Bobby Flay can.

Now you can rediscover American cuisine at home with the recipes in Bobby Flay’s Bar Americain Cookbook. Start with a Kentucky 95—a riff on a classic French cocktail but made with bourbon—and Barbecued Oysters with Black Pepper–Tarragon Butter. Choose from sumptuous soups and salads, including a creamy clam chowder built on a sweet potato base, and Kentucky ham and ripe figs over a bed of arugula dressed with molasses-mustard dressing. Entrees will fill your family family-style, from red snapper with a crisp skin of plantains accompanied by avocado, mango, and black beans to a host of beef steaks, spice-rubbed and accompanied by side dishes such as Brooklyn hash browns and cauliflower and goat cheese gratin.

Bobby also shares his tips for stocking your pantry with key ingredients for everyday cooking, as well as expert advice on essential kitchen equipment and indispensable techniques. With more than 110 recipes and 110 full-color photographs, Bobby Flay’s Bar Americain Cookbook shares Bobby’s passion for fantastic American food and will change the way any cook looks at our country’s bounty.

Mark your calendars and plan to come early!

    This sounds like a great event! I am a big Bobby Flay fan, I have eaten at his MESA grill in Las Vegas as well as his restaurant in New York City. I think it’s interesting how Flay says he sees ingredients as opposed to states when he looks at a map. If you were to follow him on television or dine in his restaurants, you will see that this is true. He always tries to make a unique dish with what he has available and with what is fresh. I can imagine that this event will attract a lot of people, therefore your advice to come early is a good call.
