Salt, Fat, Acid, Heat: Mastering the Elements of Good Cooking by Samin Nosrat

Did not finish book.
Was looking for something more practical for beginner home cooking. I was interested in a guide for kitchen improvisation to get calories and vitamins in my belly, not for making restaurant-quality food at home. The author is very likable and a great story teller, but I'd rather hear more about her stories about food than her insistence that I need to pick the best oil to go with any one dish (and therefore have all of them paid for and available in my pantry?)
