Dad's Own Cookbook: Everything Your Mother Never Taught You (平裝)

內(nèi)容概要

And now, for the kitchen impaired, a cookbook guaranteed to  take you from zero to frittata in less than an hour. Dad's Own  Cookbook offers culinary neophytes and novice cooks the chance to  finally flex a little muscle in the kitchen. For singles who don't  cook but are trying to impress a new date, this could be the dating  guide of the century.
 Joy of Cooking, The New Basics, and  Betty Crocker's New  Cookbook are all excellent books, but if you think Cuisinart  was a movement that followed the French impressionists, they just  might be a bit over your head. Author Bob Sloan assumes nothing, and  Dad's Own Cookbook covers it all, start to finish. From buying  the ingredients to cooking and serving, Sloan offers concise,  no-nonsense instruction that strips away intimidation and sends  confidence levels soaring. The highlight of this extraordinary  cookbook is the recipes. While Sloan assumes you might be  inexperienced in the kitchen, he never assumes that you are  inexperienced at the table. The recipes are admirable, including such  delicacies as Chicken Tortellini with Prosciutto and Tomato Cream  Sauce, Baked Salmon with Herb Crust, and Strawberry Mousse. Best of  all, Dad's Own Cookbook provides you with the tools you need to  put them on the table.
 Sloan starts with shopping tips, such as how  to read product labels and select fresh produce. (Quick quiz for the  experienced cooks out there: how do you tell if an egg is fresh?) He  moves on to how to pick knives and pans, and how to measure (under the  snappy title "Real Men Do Measure"), prepare, and serve. Along the  way, Sloan offers solid advice on selecting a menu, what to prepare in  advance, and how to time the cooking so everything comes out just  right and at the same time. About the only thing Dad's Own  Cookbook leaves out are excuses--when it comes to cooking, you  simply won't need them any more. --Mark O. Howerton
