The debut cookbook from @albert_cancook, one of the internet's most captivating and creative culinary creators, featuring a unique self-standing format!"Albert, how did you come up with that idea?" I get this question a lot. As a content creator, my inspiration comes from so many places-movies, TV shows, cartoons, my hunger cravings... even the universe at large! The key to cooking your favorite, most craveable foods is learning a few simple techniques in the kitchen and then letting your imagination run wild. And, in my case, using as much cheese and bone marrow as possible.My first cookbook is inspired by what I consider the best of social media. I wanted a self-standing, horizontal format to mimic the ease of swiping through your FYP. And of course it's packed with my most beloved viral recipes that have brought joy and flavor to countless tables and faces. (I mean, when they were scrolling through their feeds, of course.) For the first time, you'll be able to get the recipes for my internet-famous creations like Mozzarella Donuts, Big Mac Burritos, Deadpool Pizza, and many more.My recipes are a fusion of out-of-the box flavor combinations, fast-food classics remixed, and dishes inspired by movies and TV shows that you won't find anywhere else. The recipes that went viral did so for all sorts of reasons-some are deceptively simple, some are surprisingly complicated, and others are so amazing and delicious you just have to try them yourself!
