ABOUT THIS BOX
My name is Danielle Goldstein, and I’m a chef in Los Angeles. My career has taken me through working in restaurants, catering fancy events, R&D in test kitchens, teaching culinary school, and being a personal chef—but my fondness for working with food stems from the way it brings people together. There is something so simple, and so important, that connects us when we talk about food, share food that we have crafted, or sit down at a table together.
Cooking fancy food is fun and challenging, but cooking homey food carries a deep level of meaning. I’ve come to realize that whenever I cook with the intention of making people happy, the meal will be appreciated and enjoyed. Most of my chef friends’ favorite recipes to cook are approachable, full of flavor, and satisfying. When I was a cook at Acquerello restaurant, I remember the chef-owner Suzette asking me to make simple pork meatballs for the prep cooks and servers, which I poured my heart into (in between producing a foie gras-truffle mousse and a ragu made from imported veal and pancetta for our Michelin-starred menu). The staff loved those meatballs and often requested an encore.
WHY THIS BOX?
This box is a collection of favorite recipes from my family and friends, as well as from myself. I hope that this box will speak to your soul as well as to your stomach.
