Description

Kinfolk magazine—launched to great acclaim and instant buzz in 2011—is a quarterly journal about understated, unfussy entertainment. The journal has captured the imagination of readers nationwide, with content and an aesthetic that reflects a desire to go back to simpler times; take a break from our busy lives; build a community around a shared sensibility; and foster the endless and energizing magic that results from sharing a meal with good friends.

Now there’s The Kinfolk Table, a cookbook from the creators of the magazine, with profiles of 45 tastemakers who are cooking and entertaining in a way that is beautiful, uncomplicated, and inexpensive.

Each of these home cooks—artisans, bloggers, chefs, writers, bakers, craters—has provided one to three of the recipes they most love to share with others, whether they be simple breakfasts for two, one-pot dinners for six, or a perfectly composed sandwich for a solo picnic.
