Ever since his first book, "Simple Cooking," and its acclaimed
successors, "Outlaw Cook," "Serious Pig, "and "Pot on the Fire,"
John Thorne has been hailed as one of the most provocative,
passionate, and accessible food writers at work today. In "Mouth
Wide" "Open, "his fifth collection, he has prepared a feast for the
senses and intellect, charting a cook's journey from ingredient to
dish in illuminating essays that delve into the intimate pleasures
of pistachios, the Scottish burr of real marmalade, how the Greeks
made a Greek salad, the (hidden) allure of salt anchovies, and
exploring the uncharted territory of improvised breakfasts and
resolutely idiosyncratic midnight snacks. Most of all, his
inimitable warmth, humor, and generosity of spirit inspire us to
begin our own journey of discovery in the kitchen and in the
age-old comfort and delight of preparing food.

In essays ranging from his earliest cooking lessons in a cold-water
walk-up apartment on New York's Lower East Side to opinions both
admiring and acerbic on the food writers of the past ten years,
John Thorne argues that to eat exactly what you want, you have to
make it yourself. Thorne tells us how he learned to cook for
himself the foods that he likes best to eat, and following along
with him can make you so hungry that his simple, suggestive recipes
will inspire you to go into the kitchen and translate your own
appetite into your own supper.
