Book Description

October 28, 2003 Best of the Best: Best Recipes from the 25 Best Cookbooks of the Year (Book 6)
Buy only one cookbook this year, and still get all the best recipes published in the past 12 months. Almost 1 million subscribers heartily agree: Food & Wine is the unrivaled leader in the field, and every year their editors search tirelessly for the most delectable dishes from the "crème de la crème" of cookbooks. Here are their selections--more than 100 from 25 cookbooks--all fully kitchen-tested. And the chefs don't come better than this: Mario Batali (Babbo Cookbook), Daniel Boulud (Chef Daniel Boulud), Wolfgang Puck (Live, Love, Eat!), Alice Waters (Chez Panisse Fruit), Eric Ripert (A Return to Cooking), and Marcel Desaulniers (Celebrate with Chocolate). Cheryl Alters Jamison & Bill Jamison show how to start the day with A Real American Breakfast, including Blueberry Turnovers and Corned Beef Hash. David Thompson provides a luscious introduction to Thai Food, with such delicious meals as Stir-Fried Minced Beef with Chilies and Holy Basil. Nick Malgieri explains how to bake Perfect Cakes: try a Chocolate Chiffon or Zuccotto alla Ricotta. Go vegetarian with Charmaine Solomon's Eggplant Lasagne; Mediterranean with Annisa Helon's Chick Pea Fritters; or Spanish with Janet Mendel's Flamenco Potato Salad with Lemon Dressing.
Each recipe will tantalize you on the page, just from the enticing photos and the descriptions. Imagine what they will really taste like on your palate.


Editorial Reviews

From Publishers Weekly

Assembled by the editors of Food & Wine, this volume contains recipes from those cookbooks dubbed the 25 best of the year. The books from which recipes were culled for 2003 (the sixth edition of this book for F&W) include Mario Batali's The Babbo Cookbook, Rozanne Gold's Desserts 1-2-3, Wolfgang Puck's Live, Love, Eat! and Ina Garten's third installment, Barefoot Contessa Family Style. Quotes from the cookbooks' authors and tips from the F&W kitchen experts might make these recipes even better than they were in their original books. Because chapters are organized alphabetically by authors' last names, readers will find dessert recipes nestled between Quail with Bacon and Honey and Real Meatballs and Spaghetti-but an index of recipes by course can help readers navigate the quirky and tasty collection.

This review is from: Best of the Best: The Best Recipes from the 25 Best Cookbooks of the Year (Best of the Best: Best Recipes from the 25 Best Cookbooks of the Year) (Hardcover)
I love these books so much I've bought 7 of them. Tremendous value - especially when you can buy this book series in near mint condition for < $1.00.

This book has opened up exposure to a lot of new books, cooks and flavorings. Wonderful.
