The e-book offers home-cooked version of the celebrity chefs' signature recipes
Alain Passard, André Chiang, Cho Hee-sook. Some 50 celebrity chefs from the world's highest-ranked restaurants have contributed lockdown recipes to an electronic book, which is being published to raise funds for the restaurant sector, which has been hard-hit by the ongoing health crisis.
With recipes inspired by places as far apart as South Korea, France and San Francisco, the new e-book entitled "Home Comforts—simple lockdown recipes from the world's best chefs and bartenders" isn't about revealing the celebrity chefs' closely guarded secrets of signature dishes but a wealth of good ideas to feed the family. Sorted into categories of different types of dishes, "50 Best" is promising that recipes are suitable for amateur cooks of all levels.

To get your hands on a copy of the new publication, you simply have to connect to www.50BestForRecovery.com and donate the sum of ten dollars.
The funds raised will go to 50 Best's Recovery Fund to help restaurateurs to overcome the enormous economic challenges prompted by the Covid-19 pandemic.
Amateur cooks are also being invited to share photos of their dishes on social networks accompanied by the hashtag #50BestRateMyPlate. Starting on July 20, the organisers of the ranking will be choosing their favourite dishes to share on their account. Every week, the dish that gains the most votes will be designated as a finalist. In all, five dishes will be in competition to win two invitations for the next World's 50 Best Awards ceremony, which will be held in Antwerp (Belgium) in 2021.
