Salt Hank - Henry Laporte

Henry Laporte, better known as Salt Hank, treats his kitchen like an amusement park of flavor. He disregards health, prep time, and any other distractions that might keep him from creating the most delicious food imaginable. Through his social channels, he has amassed millions of followers and established himself as one of the internet's leaders in creative cooking. Flavor is his North Star, and in this book, you will find more than eighty recipes that follow his layered flavor and texture ethos and seriously solid technique.

Every core memory from Hank's childhood stems from his love of eating—his first piece of salami, his first real stake, his first bump of caviar. Little by little, he realized his purpose in life was the pursuit of ridiculously good-tasting food, and around the age of ten he began cooking it himself. Hank's inventiveness in the kitchen is showcased by recipes like his Bang Bang Shrimp Tacos and Orange Chicken Sandwich, and more refined dishes like Rack of Lamb with Red Wine Reduction Sauce, Glazed Carrots, and Garlic Bread and Duck Breast with Potato Chips and Pan Sauce. But Hank is widely known as a sandwich man, and the last chapter includes recipes for the sixteen best sandwiches he's ever made.

Hank doesn't post many of his mouthwatering recipes online, so if you want to make his food, you need this book. It also includes an exhaustive guide to creating your own cooking content; from equipment to aesthetics, Hank lays out everything he's learned in his years of filming and editing food videos.
