More, Please! Molly Baz Is Back With Bold And Playful Recipes In Her Newest Cookbook

Published on April 23, 2024

Molly Baz is a fresh face on the food scene. Born and raised in Upstate New York, the 35-year-old didn’t take the usual route to being an author of two NYT bestselling cookbooks, Cook This Book (2021) and this latest, More is More. Molly didn’t go to culinary school — she learned her trade working at well-known restaurants such as Glasserie and Picholine, then took a leap and became a senior associate food editor at Bon Appétit until 2020. Determined to create recipes that feature her love of big-flavor dishes and promote her brand through social media (she has more than 750,000 Insta followers), Molly is now one of the biggest cookbook authors we know.

We’re sharing five standout recipes from her new book. You’ll want to try the Crispy Potato Skins with Fried Herb Aioli, featuring a dip packed with herbs, garlic, mayo, capers and cornichon brine. Chicken Salad with Coconut Crunch is topped with a peanut-coconut dressing and granola that’s so good you can eat it for breakfast, and Mollz Ballz, made with sausage, beef, ricotta and mint, are not to be missed. Molly chatted with us about her new book and how to really go for it in the kitchen.
