Back in 2010, Amanda Cohen, the chef-owner of Dirt Candy, announced that she was writing a comic-book cookbook with artist Ryan Dunlavey and her husband, journalist Grady Hendrix. Eater got a sneak peek in June and described it as “a clever comic book retelling (with recipes) of Cohen’s experiences opening and running her vegetarian New York restaurant Dirt Candy, from dealings with shady contractors to appearing on Iron Chef America.”
Whelp, the trailer hit YouTube yesterday and boy, is it special. If it moves you to buy the book when it goes on sale Tuesday, just note the fine print at the end: “You may have heard that we were offering a bamboo windchime as part of a promotional package. Whatever you heard is a complete fabrication.”
