Favorite Dishes. Selected Recipes

Vasily Emelyanenko is the most popular chef on Runet. 3.2 million subscribers on YouTube and over 450 million views of his videos! Vasily's audience won’t lie: besides the fact that he cooks wonderfully, he also keeps himself in excellent physical shape. His extensive culinary experience and constant search for something new, fresh, and unique allow him to create unique and truly delicious dishes that Vasily is happy to share on his YouTube channel. This book contains my favorite recipes from the YouTube channel. Each recipe has a QR code that will lead you to a video where you will see how I prepare this dish in a home kitchen. There were comments on the channel that there are too few restaurant dishes. But what differentiates a restaurant dish from a home dish? Only the presentation! Therefore, in the photographs in the book, all dishes are presented in a restaurant style, while in the videos I cook them in a home style. Any dish can be served both ways, as the food is the same; only the form will change. At the same time, all the dishes consist of simple ingredients, and each of you will be able to prepare them and delight yourself and your family. This book will be interesting for both home cooks and professionals in the culinary world. The front cover reflects a professional approach, while the back one shows the accessibility of home cooking. I hope my food will not only please you but also motivate you to keep yourself in good physical shape, as I have always advocated for food to be diverse, tasty, and simple despite the complexities of preparation and the number of ingredients. In this book, I continue to promote the idea of expanding culinary horizons, for if you do not try an unfamiliar dish, you will not understand whether you like it or not. Favorite recipes will help you forget about tension and creative crises when you’ve been struggling for hours with cooking. Start a dance with this book and unlock your potential as a professional chef. And to dance beautifully, as in any endeavor, it's important to know the basic steps — foundational knowledge, which is also included in this book.
