RICHMOND, CA, UNITED STATES, September 3, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ — Bebe Black Carminito invites food enthusiasts and aesthetes alike with the release of her cookbook, The Curated Board (Abrams, September 3, 2024).

This stunningly beautiful book explores the art of assembling visually appealing and delectable boards, showcasing Carminito’s unique blend of culinary expertise and artistic flair. Also included are 7 menus by culinary creatives with whom Carminito collaborated.

Inspired by her background in food styling, makeup artistry, performing arts, and a passion for gastronomy, Carminito transforms ordinary ingredients into extraordinary culinary creations. The Curated Board is more than just a cookbook; it is a testament to Carminito’s creative vision and her ability to elevate everyday meals into works of art.

“I’ve always believed that food should not only be tantalizing, but also visually captivating, we eat with our eyes first,” says Carminito.” With The Curated Board, I aim to inspire readers to approach meal preparation as a form of artistic curated expression, where colors, textures, and flavors come together in harmonious arrangements.”

The book features a variety of boards tailored for different occasions, from casual gatherings to weekend brunch to elegant soirées and tea parties. Each board is meticulously designed, offering tips for putting together inspired boards, platters, and spreads for 4 to 6 people.

There are also recipes for refreshing cocktails as well as wine and beverage pairings to coincide accordingly. She invites her readers to also dive into their creativity to make it individually a work of art that delights both the palate and the eye.

In addition to the creative boards, Carminito shares tips on ingredient selection, food styling, board compositions, and presentation techniques. Whether you’re planning a brunch with friends or a romantic dinner for two, The Curated Board provides the tools needed to create memorable dining experiences. Each menu includes recipes and all of the accompaniments you’ll need from fridged foraged items to pantry-pulled staples to assemble curated boards. Also, as Ina Garten says, “store-bought is fine.”
