Product Details
Overview
Deck the halls with UFO lights and mistletoe! The Santa Claus Conquers the Martians Cookbook is where mid-century nostalgia meets interplanetary holiday joy. Inspired by the 1964 cult film, this cookbook brings together the aesthetics of atomic-age science fiction, the elegance of 1960s dinner parties, and the playful absurdity of holiday kitsch.
Chef-author Jarrett Melendez, the Eisner- and GLAAD-nominated creator of Chef’s Kiss and author of The Official Wednesday, Borderlands, and White Lotus cookbooks, transforms the food of an era into an edible time machine. With clever, tongue-in-cheek recipes like Martian Pie (a minty-chocolate Grasshopper Pie homage topped with crushed candy canes) and Jupiter Spritz (a neon-green gin fizz with edible glitter), Melendez invites readers to cook, laugh, and embrace the glorious weirdness of Christmas-in-space.
Packed with over 40 recipes, full-color photography, and retro graphic design, this book celebrates the joy of cooking with personality and nostalgia — perfect for foodies, film buffs, and holiday traditionalists who like their Christmas with a dash(er) of camp.

Recipe example:
Martian Pie: a play on the classic Grasshopper Pie, which first appeared in the 50s but really reached peak popularity in the 60s. Chocolate and mint is always a winning combo in my mind, and I really want to amp up the green with a little crushed candy cane to make it extra festive and crunchy. Mmm, made with real Martians!
