Description
"Goin's food is bountiful and generous. Her inspiration lies in the rustic cuisines of the Mediterranean, but the heartiness of her presentation belies the intuitive and nuanced refinement of a master. Her cooking satisfies at every level. Disparate textures keep the palate interested, intriguing notes of sweet and sour keep it guessing, and an impeccable balance of bright herbaceous notes spin it Californian. We all have foods we crave—perhaps it's a hankering for steak or the memory of a chocolate mousse—but Goin's food, in itself, is one that spurs yearning in me. These cumin- and cinnamon-scented meatballs are everything I love about her cooking in one spicy little ball. Cook them and you'll see why."Reprinted with permission from Eat. Cook.
