The Cook’s Apprentice by Stephanie Alexander

We’re thrilled to announce the release of Stephanie Alexander’s 18th book, The Cook’s Apprentice.

This beautiful hardcover book, with joyful illustrations by renowned Australian designer Evie O, is essential for the younger cook who’s just starting out.

The Cook’s Apprentice includes 56 ingredient chapters – from Apples to Zucchini – and more than 300 delicious, achievable recipes.

Stephanie takes you into her kitchen as she explains more than 100 important techniques in straightforward language.

How do I whisk eggs to soft peaks? What does it mean to ‘make a well’ in dry ingredients? Why should I roast spices? How do I prepare fresh chillies safely? What is fresh mozzarella? How do I say ‘quinoa’? Stephanie answers all these questions and more, discusses the kitchen tools she likes to use, and describes ingredients you might not know.

The Cook’s Apprentice gives novice cooks the inspiration they need for a lifetime of confidence and enjoyment in the kitchen.
