Alison Roman Releases 'Something From Nothing,' A Pantry-First Cookbook

Published by Quadrille at £30, the volume shows home cooks how to turn staples into satisfying meals.

Overview

  • British Vogue reports the book is out now and marks Roman’s fourth cookbook.
  • The concept focuses on making satisfying meals from pantry and freezer staples when time or budgets are tight.
  • It immortalizes her viral shallot pasta and includes 100 other recipes with lively commentary.
  • Roman says a friend’s text praising making “something so good from basically nothing” inspired the title and direction.
  • She presents the collection as practical and timeless rather than trend-driven, reflecting a current focus on home cooking and domestic abundance.
