Linda Johnson Larsen

Linda Johnson Larsen is a recipe developer, food journalist, and cookbook author whose work emphasizes practical home cooking and clear instructions. The Complete Air Fryer Cookbook was published by Callisto in 2016 and contains more than one hundred recipes alongside guidance on cooking times, temperatures, measurements, and appliance techniques. The book treats the air fryer as more than a tool for crisping food, showing how it can also support baking, grilling, steaming, and roasting. Recipes range across breakfasts, vegetables, poultry, meat, fish, snacks, and desserts, with charts intended to help readers adapt familiar ingredients. Larsen has written more than twenty-five cookbooks, including The Everything Tex-Mex Cookbook, The Starter Cook, and The Everything Almost Homemade Cookbook, and has contributed to several food and lifestyle magazines. The Complete Air Fryer Cookbook reflects her broader approach: explain the equipment, reduce uncertainty for beginners, and provide enough varied examples for a single kitchen appliance to become useful across ordinary meals.
