From Eater.COM: "Noted memoirist, James Beard Award-winning restaurant critic, former Gourmet magazine editor in chief, and recent novelist Ruth Reichl will publish a cookbook later this year. Titled My Kitchen Year: 136 Recipes That Saved My Life, the book - published by Random House - chronicles the period in Reichl's life just after Gourmet magazine folded at the end of 2009.
"It marked a turning point in the world of food media, but no one was more taken aback than Reichl herself. She writes of dealing with the shock, "I did what I always do when I'm confused, lonely, or frightened. I disappeared into the kitchen."
"These are the 136 recipes that helped Reichl heal after that turbulent time when she didn't know what she would do next. They sound like recipes a food writer would turn to in a moment of uncertainty: Kale with chiles and garlic; peach cobbler; chicken and mushroom fricassee; grilled cheese; and "a blistering ma po tofu that shakes Reichl out of the blues."
