Project Griddle: The Versatile Art of Grilling on a Flattop -- Steven Raichlen

<b>From America's bestselling grilling authority, an essential guide to Griddles, including delicious recipes and the do's and don't's of grilling.</b> <p/> Prized for their accessibility and versatility--and because they're so much fun to use--griddles (also known as planchas and flat-tops) are soaring in popularity. <i>Project Griddle</i> features the trademark Raichlen approach, with plenty of practical cooking techniques and nearly 80 hunger-inducing recipes. It traces the history and geography of griddling, from the teppan of Japan to the plancha of Spain to champa grilling in South America. A gear chapter showcases the various types of stand-up and portable flattops and planchas, plus the requisite accessories, how to season and maintain a griddle, how to oil and cook on it, with chefs' shortcuts, and some pitfalls to watch out for. <p/> And then there are the recipes--each one as outrageously delicious and foolproof as the last, for classics like the crispiest smash burgers and tapas bar shrimp to an entire suite of heretofore un-grillable foods--egg-and-bacon breakfast feasts, potato latkes, crepes, French toast, and smoky fried rice. It's Project Smoke for griddles--and don't think of buying one without its guidance.<br><br><b>Author:</b> Steven Raichlen<br><b>Publisher:</b> Workman Publishing<br><b>Published:</b> 04/29/2025<br><b>Pages:</b> 264<br><b>Binding Type:</b> Hardcover<br><b>Size:</b> 9.25h x 7.25w x 1.00d<br><b>ISBN:</b> 9781523528875<br><p><b>About the A
