In his long-awaited new book Rook! Bestselling author and barbecue guru Steven Raichlen takes you into the world of smoking.

In Smoke! The focus is on smoking meat, fish, poultry and vegetables. A distinction is made between hot-smoking (kippers and ham) and cold-smoking (such as mozzarella affumicata and Scandinavian salmon). Raichlen focuses exclusively on smoking dishes - from smoked meats and seafood to smoked cocktails, condiments and desserts. You will learn how to vary different smoke flavors, how to use different barbecues and smokers and that the possibilities for smoked dishes are endless, such as cheesecake, cream, mayonnaise, butter and ice cream.
