acknowledgments
My heartfelt gratitude, first and foremost, to my darling Matthew. Almost without exception, you were the sole dish-doer of this entire project. I simply cannot thank you enough for your input, your critiques, and your pot scrubbery. I still owe you deeply for all of those sticky candy pans.
Without Jane Tunks, none of this would have ever happened. Thank you, my dear, for being the butt-kicking inspiration. My gratitude also to Lorena Jones and to Ten Speed, and to my editors, Genoveva Llosa and Clancy Drake.
The incredible team who made these pages so beautiful deserves a round of applause. I am amazed at the chic urban beauty of the photos of Jennifer Martin, and the incredible, edible craftwork of stylist Karen Shinto. Many thanks to you both.
I also thank my army of testers for their enthusiasm, their input, and their utter patience with a work-in-progress. They are Gregory Schaefer, Eileen ONeil, Jill Szumacher, Rachella Sinclair, Meghan Elliot, Benjamin Gross, Julie Ross-Godar, and Christine Fronsdal.
Without the wisdom, guidance, and mentoring of Anika Luskin Streitfeld, who has been supportive of me in innumerable ways, I would never have met Danielle Svetcov, her partner in crime, whoquite literallymade my ambition come to fruition. A big bow to you both for your tireless efforts.
And last, I thank my darling Emmett, who spit it out if it wasnt good enough. We should all be lucky enough to have such a humbling critic.

introduction
When I was growing up, the ber-processed Miracle Whipmy familys 1978 God-given bath for tuna fishliterally made me gag as it soddened an otherwise respectable sandwich. To my mind, that gooey sweet stuff sitting in jars for untold ages, plagued with the gunk of calcium disodium, low-grade soybean oil, and modified food starch, tainted everything it touched. And today, decades later, postChez Panisse, and the organic, Slow Food, and local eating movements, if you peek inside most American pantries, youll still find them stuffed with prefab food.
Ever since Ive presided over my own kitchen larder, I have worked to duck the stranglehold of Big Mayo in my day-to-day culinary life. My delight in experimentation, insatiable food lust, and perseverance helped me think outside the jar. Like any junkie, I have single-mindedly forged my way through homemade salad dressings, baked goods, and, eventually, simple cheeses and sausages. They were good! I got cocky, served it all with pride, and went back to the kitchen for more.
Ive now had the pleasure of writing the book that Ive looked for in vain for years. Id always hoped to find those Girl Scout blueprints to the kitchenthe culinary equivalent of knot tying, fire starting, and good citizenshipthat would be the building blocks for everyday eating. But usually when I wanted to make for myself the staples we bought at the storebasic mustard, simple crackers, or day-to-day cooking shortening, for exampleId have to dig through ancient recipe texts, obscure farm manuals, and the food-geek blogosphere. Stocking the pantry and our own refrigerator doors with ingredients that were made by hand for centuries should not be so cumbersome. Here, I hope to share the joy of real, obtainable DIY kitchen crafting projects at their best. I hope you are moved to grab a wooden spoon and a jar because food crafts you can eat and share are funway more fun than stringing together a macaroni necklace.
Admittedly, some of these projects are pretty involved, and no one is expecting you to bust out the Kitchen-Aid just for a couple dollops of good salad dressing. But when the desire to get crafty strikes, I want this to be your go- to book. Throughout, Ive tried to make the entire creative process as simple, fun, and foolproof as possible, using everyday ingredients and equipment whenever they can serve.
While this book hardly answers the question, Whats for dinner?, it can help you (and your craftivist friends) take advantage of your creativity, keeping your pantries and fridges stocked with high quality, sharable staples and reasonably obtained extravagances. I am not a chef, and never would I claim to be. I am, however, curious, creative, inventive, and really into making stuffstuff I can eat and get others to eatwith my own hands. Mainly I am a crafter and food is my medium of choice. I truly hope that something in these chapters will inspire your own culinary DIY spirit.
Best of luck kicking the lid off Big Mayo.
