Bad Manners is back in season with their original plant-based recipes show you how to shop and cook smarter in this new world so cooking at home doesn't have to be boring as f*ck

If it feels like everything's so beyond fucked that you just wanna lie down and wait for the earth to reclaim your body, we understand. A food reckoning is unfolding in front of us. Adjustments are difficult and change is scary, but this is an opportunity: a chance for food not just to be different, but better.

Any time you open this book, you're stepping into a corner of our kitchen. Try to tune out whatever mushroom cloud of bullshit is happening outside your door—global pandemics, biblical plagues, terrible haircuts—none of that shit matters in here. We'll help you do more than just survive, bitch. You're gonna THRIVE. Sure, this book is full of some bomb-ass recipes and killer photos, but that wasn't enough. Not this time. We wanted to show you how to stock your pantry and store your produce to make it last longer. If we call for an ingredient you're not familiar with or the store doesn't have, we give you substitutions. We aren't just giving you shortcuts; we're giving you the whole f*cking road map from pantry to prep to pairings to plating. We've got a produce glossary that breaks down a lot of shit you probably never knew (but most def should) about all the fresh stuff in your market.

We're here to arm you with all the info you need so that you'll never experience produce panic again.

      Starred review from December 6, 2021
      The folks at Bad Manners (Thug Kitchen) give all the f*cks as they ardently advocate for a plant-based diet in this irreverent and enticing guide. Responding to what they see as a “food reckoning” brought on by the culinary wake-up call of the pandemic, the authors argue that now’s the time to make food not just “different, but better.” Eating more consciously, they argue, “doesn’t mean you have to suddenly become a stuck-up asshole who’s no fun to be around.” Instead they teach home cooks how to “eat less trash” and more veggies, urging them to buy ingredients and fresh produce instead of “products,” and to reduce food waste by getting comfortable with cooking with whatever’s lying around. Recipes range from breakfast to dinner and sweets, scouring the world for inspiration and subverting “constructs” along the way. Spaghetti’s served for breakfast, while a smashed cucumber salad cools things down when it’s “hotter than hell outside.” Sticky tofu with sweet sesame sauce (essentially a “cake made of beans”) puts a healthy spin on takeout, and strawberry rosewater cheesecake takes the sting out of the idea of being gluten-intolerant. Capping things off is an enlightening produce glossary with tips on when to buy and how to store them. This makes a serious matter seriously fun. Agent: Richard Pine, InkWell Management.
