About the author
For the past 25 years, Emmy and James Beard Award winner Chris Fennimore has been the producer and host of a series of cooking programs on public television (QED Cooks in Pittsburgh and America’s Home Cooking when episodes broadcast around the U.S.). These beloved shows invite viewers to send in their family treasures and share their kitchen wisdom. For his new book, Stuffed, Chris includes some of the best “stuffed” recipes from those home cooks, and the rest of the recipes are his, collected over the years from family and friends that he has adapted and made his own. These recipes are predominantly ethnic comfort foods with long and well-loved traditions. His previous cookbook was Simple Pleasures (St. Lynn's Press, 2017).
