Cooking fast doesn’t mean compromising on quality or resorting to packaged shortcuts. In the second edition of How to Cook Everything Fast, Mark Bittman and Kerri Conan have added variations, tips, quick side dishes, and make-ahead components for an easy-to-follow collection to help you in becoming a faster — and better — cook.
