Dirt Candy Signed Cookbook
Now in its seventh printing, the Dirt Candy cookbook is 224 pages of pure comic book madness! It's the entire Dirt Candy experience wrapped up between two covers. Part graphic novel, part cookbook, it's written by the chef and owner of Dirt Candy, Amanda Cohen, drawn by Ryan Dunlavey, the award-winning comic book criminal behind Action Philosophers, and ably assisted by the writer Grady Hendrix (who is also Amanda's husband). This book answers all your burning questions.
