Here’s Zak Pelaccio’s new cookbook Eat With Your Hands, full of recipes from his New York restaurants Fatty Crab and Fatty ‘Cue. The book clearly aims for a sort of rock ‘n roll vibe, most notably in a recipe for whole hog that calls for, among other things, two bottles of the hard-to-get Pappy Van Winkle bourbon, a couple joints, and an 8-ball. Each recipe is accompanied by a music recommendation and a drink suggestion, to be drunk during cooking “to alleviate stress and [numb] you to the trivial concerns of a broken society.”

Examples of music recs… 

• Lobster Wonton Mee - Mandrill “Solid”
• Braised Lamb Shoulder w/ Cavatelli - Roxy Music “2HB”
• Beef Rendang -Some borderline cheesy seventies groove, like Herbie Mann’s Push Push , Grover Washington’s Mister Magic, or if you want to go contemporary, stuff from Shawn Lee or Luke Vibert . Silly music that you almost forget is there until you realize you’ve been bobbing your head for the last hour.
