Book Eaterland: Recipes and Stories from across the United States

Eaterland is popular website Eater's mouthwatering deep dive into over 85 quirky regional dishes that truly define American cuisine, with recipes, essays, and stories from local celebrities and chefs. Divided into eight regions, this cookbook is filled with recipes, introductions from notable local chefs or celebrities, and recommendations for restaurants that serve the eclectic, multicultural cuisines that make up American food. It reads like a cross-country road trip through the nation's kitchens, inviting readers to experience each region either in person or from their own kitchen. When casual food lovers attempt to define stereotypical "American cuisine," they often lean into foods like hamburgers, hot dogs, and pizza. Perhaps some understand that everything from Cajun cuisines to soul food is as American as apple pie. But it takes a certain kind of obsessiveness―one Eater is known for―to really investigate what American food means. In Eaterland, the national publication and go-to site for restaurant recommendations, recipes, and food stories, Eater, maps out where to eat, what to eat, and how to eat food that is quintessentially, unequivocally American.
