With no time to cook for friends or you have forgotten all your own creative ideas.This is a great jump start for newly married or it is about time we had people over instead of going out all the time. It gives great pantry stocking lists, times for prep, cooking etc are listed so you can pick what you have time to cook. Also it has GREAT directions to make food ahead of time so you can be at your own dinner party instead of being locked in the kitchen. I think this book might be all the tips and things I could have learned from my mom would have lived in the same town. Great wedding gift.

What a delightful book! From the pantry and grocery list to tips for pre-prep....a blend of flavors and beautiful foods. Who knew about the baked potatoes and basil??? After severl trips to Italy, it's nice to have a good cook book written by someone who really knows the food.

My favorite cookbooks, and this is one of them, are all marked by a certain similarity. The similarity is that the recipes they contain have been meticulously tested. This is the primary strength of "Cooking for My Friends". Every recipe you try will invariably yeild a great dish. It also has a wide variety of tastes and recipes to choose from. It is one of those rare cookbooks which allows you to choose any recipe between the covers and come up with something spectacular. You'll want to tell your friends that some of the recipes are your own.
