SIGNED: Kismet (Sara Kramer, Sarah Hymanson)

Bold Mediterranean flavors and vegetable-centric California cuisine unite in 100 bright, fresh recipes for everyday meals, from the women chef-owners behind Kismet and Kismet Rotisserie in Los Angeles.

Starring over 100 recipes, Kismet captures the casual, super fresh, vegetable-forward cooking the award-winning Los Angeles restaurants are known for. Thoughtfully adapted for home cooks, recipes like Cauliflower with Caper Yogurt and Harissa Party Wings are a tantalizing blend of casual California cool and vibrant Mediterranean-inspired flavors.

A chapter devoted to dips and sauces includes variations of labneh, tahini, and zhoug that pair beautifully with Malawach, plus recipes for Peanut Muhammara and Garlicky Bean Dip. In the Salady chapter there’s a modern Wedge with Miso-Poppy Dressing along with a Marinated Feta topped with Dates and Rosewater-Marinated Onions or Spice-Roasted Tomatoes and Grapefruit. And although vegetables may be the stars of the book, you’ll also find recipes for Blistered Shishitos with Shrimp, Weeknight Steak with Grapes and Grilled Peppers, Roast Chicken with Schmaltzy Potatoes, and more.

With stunning photography, unique design, and easy recipes featuring tips and tricks to help along the way, Kismet is a delicious vibe that folds assertive, bright flavors into dishes that can be served any night of the week or made to celebrate special occasions.
