Chef John Besh Releases New Cookbook: Cooking from the Heart

Just before Christmas I wrote an article about the new Besh Box initiative that Chef John Besh launched in November. The Besh Box is essentially a subscription-based, hand-picked gourmet cooking kit. You can read all about the Besh Box by clicking here: Chef John Besh's New Besh Box.

But the Besh Box wasn't the only thing that John launched in November. He also released his third cookbook: Cooking from the Heart: My Favorite Lessons Learned Along the Way.

John Besh is a local New Orleans boy, born and raised just east of here, in Slidell, LA. He is a successful restauranteur, running 8 restaurants in New Orleans and 1 in San Antonio. He is a recipient of the James Beard Award, a philanthropist, an author, a TV personality, a good Catholic, and a husband and father. John Besh is dedicated to his faith, to his family, to New Orleans and its culture and cuisine, to real food, to seasonal ingredients and to the message of the importance of families eating together around the table as often as possible.
