The NEW ELEGANT BUT EASY COOKBOOK Unknown - 1998

Información de la editorial

A revised edition of the cookbook that set the standard for entertaining, featuring new recipes that reflect the way we cook today -- with all the great taste and ease of preparation that made it the entertaining bible for hundreds of thousands of American cooks for all 40 years.

While promoting her last bestseller, New York Times food columnist Marian Burros was amazed when fans asked her to sign their treasured copies of "The Elegant but Easy Cookbook", often held together with rubber bands. She decided that the time had come for an updated edition that reflected the new sophistication of today's cooks.

We all know that stirring risotto in the kitchen while your guests mingle in the living room is no way to throw a party. That's why all 200 recipes in "The New Elegant but Easy Cookbook" can be prepared well in advance and refrigerated or frozen until the party. While sharing all-new recipes for scrumptious fare like Chicken Breasts Stuffed with Goat Cheese or Grilled Swordfish with Lemon Ginger Marinade, Burros also includes 50 favorites from the original cookbook, like the delectable plum torte that became the most requested recipe ever to appear in The New York Times.

Many new features have been added to make entertaining even easier, including an ingredients section with mail-order sources, and best of all, foolproof menus with "countdown game plans".
