From his work on his TV show 'Food 911' Tyler knows that home cooks face no greater challenge than the struggle to create delicious meals for their families day in and day out - all in the context of hectic schedules and full lives. He also knows they want food bursting with the zingy flavours of the global palate - and a hint of restaurant sophistication to make it special. His recipes provide all that and more, with a fashion-forward edge tempered by kitchen pragmatism. Taking his inspiration from his international travels, his countless cross-country excursions to visit working families with food quandaries, and his boundless curiosity for the new and delicious, Tyler has created over 125 new recipes that sing with excitement but won't use every pot and pan in the kitchen to recreate. He zeroes in on dishes that excite the senses and spark the palate. 'Devouring' proposes small plates and cocktail bites, 'Noshing' offers crowd-pleasing favourites, 'Consuming' presents easy dishes for casual suppers, and 'Licking the Plate Clean' showcases irresistable desserts. With a staccato, witty text that's pure Tyler and inside info on ingredients and cooking techniques gleaned from his travels around the world, 'Eat This Book' proves there's really no reason to eat out when the food at home can be so delicious.
