The acclaimed chef, New York Times bestselling author, and executive producer and actor on The Bear redefines cooking’s iconic trinity: soups, salads, and sandwiches. Chances are you’ve eaten a soup, salad, or sandwich in the past day (or maybe all three). This trio makes up so many of our meals but is rarely given the attention it deserves–until now. Matty Matheson, known for his bold, innovative flavors, has created a cookbook that will revolutionize how you think of these kitchen basics.

Select tickets come with a book. To purchase a book, select a ticketing level that includes “Book.” The book, Matty Matheson: Soups, Salads, Sandwiches, will be mailed by our bookstore partner, Book Larder, to the ticket holder’s address.

Q&A with Frankie Gaw.

This book is for anyone and everyone, offering up Matty’s signature twists on the classics, delivered with minimal effort for maximum flavor. Find your favorite combination by mixing and matching dishes like:

  • Soups: Giant Meatball Soup in Beefy Tomato Broth; Crab Congee; Creamy Sausage Soup with Rapini and Tortellini; Caldo de Pollo
  • Salads: Everyone’s Mom’s Macaroni and Tuna Salad; Griddled Salami Panzanella Salad; Peaches with Goat Cheese, Mint, Honeycomb, and Olive Oil
  • Sandwiches: Cubano; Italian Combo; Sun Warmed Tomato; Banana Bread French Toast with Fried Egg, Peameal Bacon, and Maple Syrup

Packed with character, personal stories, 126 scrumptious recipes, and vivid photographs of a day-in-the-life with Matty and his family, Soups, Salads, Sandwiches will have you fearlessly whipping up your own combinations in the kitchen.
