NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER * Recipes to match every mood, situation, and vibe from the James Beard Award-winning author of Where Cooking Begins ONE OF THE TEN BEST COOKBOOKS OF THE YEAR: San Francisco Chronicle * ONE OF THE BEST COOKBOOKS OF THE YEAR: Time Out and Taste of Home Great food is an achievable part of every day, no matter how busy you are; the key is to have go-to recipes for every situation and for whatever you have on hand. The recipes in That Sounds So Good are split between weekday and weekend cooking. When time is short, turn to quick stovetop suppers, one-pot meals, and dinner salads. And for the weekend, lean into lazy lunches, simmered stews, and hands-off roasts. Carla’s dishes are as inviting and get-your-attention-good as ever. All the recipes-such as Fat Noodles with Pan-Roasted Mushrooms and Crushed Herb Sauce or Chicken Legs with Warm Spices-come with multiple ingredient swaps and suggestions, so you can make each one your own. That Sounds So Good shows Carla at her effortless best, and shows how you can be, too. Review “Bursting with flavor and potential, these everyday recipes are far from everyday.”­ -Publishers Weekly (starred review) “ That Sounds So Good will encourage even the most harried home cook to think more flexibly-and more than any one thing to eat, being confident and adaptable in the kitchen is what sounds so good right now.” -Eater About the Author Carla Lalli Music is the author of the bestseller Where Cooking Begins and the host of Carla’s Cooking Show.

Chapter 1ABC: Always Be Cooking Here’s how to celebrate and embrace the act of cooking and eating in your everyday life, no matter what Cook in this moment, whichever moment you’re in This book is organized by situation and occasion, rather than by ingredient or recipe type. I’ve divided a typical week into two buckets: Monday through Thursday, and Friday and the Weekend. My life looks a lot different on a Tuesday evening-after finishing work and catching up with a family that’s been scattered all over the place-than it does on a Saturday afternoon, when I might have enough free time to let one of my cats take a nap on my chest. But no matter what day of the week it is, a girl’s gotta eat! Within the weekday and weekend sections of this book, the individual chapters are devoted to the sorts of everyday scenarios you and I might find ourselves in-an effort to capture the types of meals that will fit into your actual life. In the weekday chapters, you’ll find stovetop suppers and dinner salads, and a chapter on the healthyish recipes that I crave after a weekend of eating and drinking and sleeping in. With many of us juggling work, school, housekeeping, caretaking, and commuting, these weekday dishes make the most of short active times. Half an hour of effort can add up to a complete meal if you know how to prioritize your prep and cook times. By comparison, the weekend section is mostly devoted to recipes with longer cook times and some with larger serving sizes: soups, stews, braises, roasts, and things to grill. That said, even when you do have the downtime to afford to park something on the back of the stove or in a low oven for a couple-few hours, I don’t want you to spend more than about half an hour of active cooking time to get that meal going or finish it up. (Grilling is a bit of an exception, since it’s one of the few times that cooking overlaps with hanging out. But there are many grilling recipes here that can be made before your friends arrive, if that’s how you like to party.) I love having people over, but my overambitious-entertainer phase-when I could be found piping out gougeres at 2 a.m. the night before a holiday party-is done. My kind of weekend food isn’t annoying, complicated, or technically challenging.
