I picked this up from the library on Saturday: Dan Pashman's 'Anything's Pastable'.

I'm on the fence with this one. There are some interesting recipes however there are some I would consider pretty bizarre. 

Not a cookbook I would buy.

That's a strange-looking cover photo. Is it really showing bacon draped over a rod, like a pasta drying rod?

That is 'cacio e pepe e chili crisp' made with a pasta I'm unfamiliar with, malfalde, and draped over what I presume to be a chopstick 🤨.

Thanks for the reminder!  I just put it on my “hold” list at the library. I've got plenty of pasta cookbooks and don’t need another one but would like to get a look at it. I’m 18th in line for 10 copies so I should get it in ~ a month.

Please post your impression/opinions of the book. 

My overall take is that I thought this type of fusion cuisine for the sake of fusion had had its day.
