BREAKING NEWS: Martha Stewart’s iconic cookbook, ‘Entertaining’, is back on shelves after a staggering 43 years. Originally published in 1982, this beloved lifestyle guide has been out of print at major retailers for years, often fetching hundreds of dollars on resale sites like eBay. Now, it’s available on Amazon for under $50, making it easily accessible for fans and newcomers alike.
In a surge of interest coinciding with the recent Netflix documentary, ‘Martha’, many Gen Z readers are rediscovering Stewart’s culinary legacy. “Many of them had seen the cookbook in their mothers’ cookbook collection and asked their mothers for the book,” Stewart told the Washington Post. “But mothers are not keen on giving it up.” This nostalgic revival is driving families to revisit the classic recipes and entertaining tips that made Stewart a household name.
The reprint of ‘Entertaining’ features an impressive 300 recipes and 450 full-color photographs, showcasing everything from outdoor omelettes to sumptuous pasta buffets. Stewart proudly declares, “I show the real stuff, no AI-engineered food.”
Reflecting on her journey, Stewart attributes much of her success to the release of ‘Entertaining’. “What really changed my life was the publication of ‘Entertaining’ in 1982,” she shared on her website. “That really changed my life. I found my voice — and I think I’d found my career.”
At 84 years old, Stewart remains a dynamic force in the culinary world, having recently launched a skincare line and released ‘Martha Stewart’s Gardening Handbook’. She humorously noted why younger generations are drawn to her work: “Because I’m cool. Not only can I cook, I hang out with Snoop Dogg and I have gone to jail. I have been through the wringer and come out alive.”
As the reprint gains traction, readers are urged to grab a copy while supplies last. With its blend of nostalgia and modern appeal, ‘Entertaining’ is poised to become a staple in households once again. This is not just a cookbook; it’s a piece of history that continues to inspire new generations of home cooks.
Stay tuned for further updates as Martha Stewart’s culinary influence continues to evolve and captivate audiences around the world.
