The number-one prime-time summer program on FOX, MasterChef, is a nationwide competition to find the best home cook in the country. The judges are some of cooking’s biggest stars—award-winning chef Gordon Ramsay, restaurateur and winemaker Joe Bastianich, and acclaimed chef
Graham Elliot. The prize? A chance to win $250,000—and a cookbook deal.
This book celebrates the food of Season 5 winner, Courtney Lapresi. Courtney came out as a firecracker, blowing the judges away time and again with her skills and confidence. She is a home cook who knows how to make decadence approachable, and that’s exactly what she’s done here.
