Item Description

This is a Cookbook: Recipes For Real Life by Max and Eli Sussman features more than 60 killer recipes that demystify the cooking process for at-home chefs, especially young people just starting out. Combining years of elbow grease in the fiery bowels of restaurants, the Sussmans bring readers a plethora of tricks to make life in the kitchen easier and frankly, more fun. This new cookbook also re-creates some of their favorite comfort foods while growing up, as well as some recipes with their origins in brotherly b.s. that wound up tasting delicious.

Max and Eli Sussman are the sons of Lynne Avadenka, FJC's 2011 American Academy in Jerusalem Fellow. Max and Eli are Brooklyn based brothers, currently writing their second cookbook for Williams Sonoma. Max is the former chef de cuisine at Roberta's. In 2012 he was named one of Forbes magazine's 30 Under 30 for Food and Wine and was a nominee for James Beard Rising Star Chef of the year. Eli is the sous chef at Mile End Deli. He is the marketing director for Taste of the Nation NYC, an annual tasting event to benefit the national charity Share Our Strength.  Together, they were on Zagat's 2012 list of top 30 Under 30 food professionals in NYC. Max and Eli recently completed a video series for Vice magazine, exploring food trucks and culture.
