The co-host of ABC's The Chew and "Fan Favorite" on Bravo's Top Chef All-Stars offers 130 recipes that embody the universal appeal of all kinds of comfort food in Carla's Comfort Foods: Favorite Dishes from Around the World.
Inspired by Carla's love of family suppers and international flavors, each section of the book offers a description of a foundational recipe followed by some international variations. With an emphasis on Southern-based comfort foods reinvented Carla-style, recipes include: Chitrana Peanut-Coconut Rice, Tomato-Pepper Mahi-Mahi Stew, Salted Peanut Chocolate Pudding Tarts, and Quince Corn Cake.
Carla, who lives in DC, is the owner of Carla Hall Petite Cookies, an artisanal cookie company that specializes in creating sweet and savory "petite bites of love."
