Peace, Love, and Pasta, Scott Conant’s most personal and accessible cookbook to date, delves into the evolution of how his cooking has changed throughout his career, and how his connection to food has strengthened as a result of his deep relationship with his family. Previously living a life continuously on the road, like so many of us, during the pandemic Scott embraced the unprecedented opportunity to be at home and cook with (and for) his family every day. This change actually affected the direction of Peace, Love, and Pasta which is now a celebration of the art of cooking for love. The book showcases the foods Scott grew up with and those he makes for his loved ones today, offering restaurant-quality meals that emphasize the beauty of simple, fresh and flavorful Italian dishes. It also includes authentic Turkish recipes as an homage to his wife, Mel’s, heritage and the meals that are a staple in their home.
