Synopsis

Even such non-granola culinary figures as Mario Batali advocate farmer's markets, seasonal produce, and organic foods. They aren't just better for your health and the planet - they actually taste better! Most men roll their eyes when they hear the word organic, and when Katie Lee Joel tried to convert her rockstar husband Billy Joel to her way of thinking, he resisted at first. However, even he couldn't deny what farmers, chefs, and Italian nonas have always known: nothing tastes better than an egg laid that morning, or a tomato picked that afternoon. Drawing from her childhood on a West Virginia farm, her culinary career in the Hamptons, and the favourite comfort foods of the Joel household (including some of Billy's specialties), Katie Lee offers recipes, tips, and anecdotes to teach and delight the modern foodie.

Media Reviews
I have had more home cooked meals around Katie's table than anywhere else in recent years...and each evening, whether two friends or ten, is filled with warmth, laughter, and of course, incredible food. Southern comfort in the heart of the city...don't turn down an invitation if you ever have the chance. -- Nate Berkus
Katie and I met a couple of years ago and became fast friends. We have so much in common, particularly our love of food. Like me, Katie's family had a huge influence on developing her awareness of food and its role at the family table. The Comfort Table is a perfect example of how the table becomes this gathering place where ideas, laughter, memories and love are shared and brought together by fantastic dishes like the ones you'll find in this book. I LOVE Katie's savory Flat Pies and her Strawberry Shortcake is nostalgic with every bite. I couldn't be more pleased to champion The Comfort Table . -- Giada de Laurentiis

Is there a bigger 'foodie' than Katie Lee Joel? I doubt it! The Comfort Table allows all of us to truly understand and realize Katie's appreciation (and hunger) for all things edibleE.especially the cherished recipes handed down to her from family. Katie's warmth and generous spirit comes shining thru in this beautiful book; the dishes are easy to replicate and so delicious, you'll soon be taking credit for them as your own. -- Michael Schlow
