In Green Fire, explore the flavourful potential of cooking vegetables—caramelized, charred, smoked, and always delicious—using chef Francis Mallmann’s acclaimed live-fire cooking method. Divided seasonally, each of the more than 80 vegetarian dishes will become your main meal and not the side. Enjoy also Mallmann’s impressive seasonings, sauces, and finishings with Argentine influences. Spring artichoke and fava salad, salt-baked beets with lemon confit, and cabbage steaks with a mustard fennel crust are just a few of the stars. And desserts and cocktails are included, too.
Filled with Mallmann’s masterful knowledge of live-fire cuisine, which he learned from his Patagonian upbringing, you will be the at-home outdoor cooking master thanks to this cookbook. Learn tips to tailor your cooking times and methods no matter the vegetable or texture, and how to easily adapt the recipes no matter the type of indoor or outdoor grill.
Featuring gorgeous photography, which beautifully exhibits the diverse colours and textures of his ingredients amid the picturesque views of Bodega Garzón in Uruguay, Green Fire is a celebration of Mallmann’s cultural experience of cooking over open fires, while revolutionizing simple ingredients.
