Delicious and beautiful recipes from Martha Stewart's personal salad chef and the self-proclaimed "Bob Ross of salads."
Jess Damuck has worked with Martha Stewart for the past decade as a food editor, producer, food stylist, and personal salad maker, including on VH1’s Martha and Snoop’s Potluck Dinner Party. Damuck has also worked at Bon Appétit, Food Network, Apartment Therapy, and Vox Creative, and has produced thousands of food-related web videos for clients. She does an Instagram show called #3hoursalads and has a monthly menu and playlist newsletter called Something Fussy. Damuck recently worked as a culinary producer for a forthcoming Duff Goldman/Jim Henson Company production. Last year, she guest-starred with Martha in one of the final episodes of HBO’s High Maintenance. She lives in both Brooklyn and Los Angeles.
“If Alison Roman is the queen of stews, Damuck easily reigns in the
kingdom of salads.”
*Publishers Weekly (starred review)*
“Damuck has reclaimed salads for those of us who have given up
counting calories and calculating macros and instead just want to
delight in the fresh colors and flavors every season offers.”
*Paste Magazine*
“In a quirky book, she shares her “healthy obsession” with how to
mix-and-match flavors, colors and textures so well that you could
eat salad for three meals a day and never get bored. That’s an
intriguing concept for those of us short on time and stuck in a
food rut. While most of us are not so fortunate as Stewart to have
a personal salad chef, we can still eat like we do.”
*TIME*
“I love that Damuck offers more than just recipes; the book
includes her tips on washing and storing greens, a list of what to
keep on hand for future salads, and even her Spotify playlist of
music to make salads by. I'll be crunching along all spring and
summer with this book.”
*Food & Wine*
“Jess Damuck, a food stylist and recipe developer, is out to change
our perception of salad. Her new cookbook, Salad Freak: Recipes to
Feed a Healthy Obsession, is all about, as she writes in the
introduction, salad becoming “something of its own art form.” She
explains that, in many ways, anything can be a salad. There are
recipes to make a salad for any meal of the day, as something to
accompany other dishes, or to be the main event—and even some that
are sort of secret salads, like Caesar Salad Pizza, Yellow
Gazpacho, and Carrot & Saffron Socca.”
*Food52*
“In her first cookbook, our friend tosses salads together in a
whole new way: They're irresistible, exciting, and delicious any
time of day.”
*Martha Stewart Living*
“The book fittingly has an intro from Stewart herself, advises home
cooks on the best salad essentials to keep in their pantry, and
provides recipes for hearty and unique produce combinations that
firmly cement salad as a main dish rather than a side.”
*Thrillist*
