Here’s the problem with trying a new recipe: You’re probably going to have to go to the store. Here’s a solution: “The Stocked Kitchen,” by Sarah Kallio and Stacey Krastins (Atria), which promises more than 300 recipes based on a single shopping list. Tear out a list from the back of the book (it’s organized by grocery store section), tick off the items, stock the cupboard and coast.
