Tonight: Food52 celebrates at Delicatessen

Food52, created by food writers Amanda Hesser and Merrill Stubbs, is dedicated to bringing together great recipes from talented home cooks across the country. Every week, the site challenges contributors to submit their best recipes for a given dish, which Hesser and Stubbs test out and rank based on crowd-sourcing the Food52 community; 140 of those recipes made their way into the new Food52 Cookbook. The authors, currently on tour, are stopping by Delicatessen (703 Chestnut St.) tonight to toast chef Ali Waks, who has three recipes in the book. The event, which begins at 6:30 p.m., is $25, which nets you a signed copy of the cookbook (a $35 value), a presentation by Hesser and Stubbs, beer from Yards and renditions of Waks' winning dishes — smoky fried chickpeas, which won "Your Best Recipe with Paprika"; cowboy-rubbed ribeye with chocolate stout pan sauce, which took the "Your Best Broiled Steak" category; and Luciana's porchetta, winner of "Your Best Roasted Pork shoulder."
