Last week we posted a recipe for Strawberries in Beaujolais Sauce from Sally’s A New Way to Cook
When A New Way to Cook was first published in 2001, it completely turned the idea of “healthy eating,” on its head. Instead of telling you what you can and can’t eat, and what foods are “good” and “bad,” the book explores how to use “taboo” ingredients like butter, oil, and animal fats in often radical new ways to make healthy and satisfying dishes. It’s also the book where Sally started to play with improvising in the kitchen, years before The Improvisational Cook
Over the years, we’ve featured some of its recipes here, including lemon-scented olive oil, root vegetable crema, and foolproof roast turkey. More recipes and the chance to peek inside the book can be found over at sallyschneider.net. But with over 700 pages of recipes and techniques, we couldn’t even begin to scratch the surface on this blog.
So, no strings attached to this one. Just comment if you’d like a copy and we will pick a winner at random on June 19th. Good luck!

I would love a copy of the book. I’m going make the cole slaw this weekend for Father’s Day dinner.
I’ve always considered myself an improvisational cook but adding The Improvisational Cook to my library really amped up my skills and helped me expand my creativity and organize my thinking. I can’t wait to experience A New Way to Cook!

I do want “A New Way to Cook,” as long as it will still include cole slaw. I love, love, love cole slaw.

Yummmm……! I’m hungry just thinking of the contents of this book. Thanks for the consideration and your blog.
We are about to revolutionize how we eat/cook in our house, and this cookbook would be an amazing and inspirational guide. Even if we don’t win a copy, we will have to buy one, since the recipes are so, so delicious!
What a great give away! This book has been on my want list for awhile! Good luck everyone
This book should be in every cooks library.
Sally’s writing is always informative , honest , insightful and entertaining!
The recipes are a well edited combination for every taste.
it is a book that you will use and refer to often. It is a classic.
I love this blog, and I love the recipes and the ideas of the recipes that you have posted!
I continue to be amazed at your site – been reading your blogs for almost a year I think, probably more – just bad with these kinds of dates. I continue with EVERY day to get inspired. My job as a project managr is very business, no art (except when we get to have collaboration sessions…) so this “forces” me to open that side of myself more. Much appreciated.
Sally is terrific! Can’t wait to see her new cookbook–
While a younger generation just Googles the recipe they want – those like me like to read a good cookbook! Just for fun and of course I always make recipes that I find in a cookbook. This one looks to be another treasure to thumbed and plumbed over and over. I’ll hand it down to the next generation even if she is still googling. Thanks for continuing to share these wonderful ideas with us.
I would absolutely love to experience this book. I’m such a fan of The Improvisational Cook. So inspirational and satisfying for palate and soul.
So sorry. That giveaway is long over. Hmmm. I knew a Bruce Pollock long ago…???
