Editorial Reviews

From the Publisher

You're faced with putting on a dinner party for your boss and her husband. The only problem is, your idea of an elegant meal is macaroni and cheese with a dash of white wine. You can barely boil water (does water burn?) and you have no time to thumb through cookbooks for recipes that you can handle. So what do you do?

Real Recipes For Casual Cooks combines the simplicity and essential step-by-step information of a beginning cookbook with the visual playfulness of a comic book. Finally, here's a cookbook that's made for the kitchen-intimidated who also have a sense of humor, a cookbook that Archie and Jug Head might've used if they'd had one around.

From complete brunches and sumptuous hors d'oeuvres, to simple salads and scrumptious dinners and desserts, Real Recipes For Casual Cooks contains thirty-six easy-to-follow recipes for any situation, all illustrated in comic book style. The book also includes plenty of cooking basics like kitchen tools, kitchen math (without a calculator), stain removal, first aid, wine, pastas, and herbs and spices. The book will also explain what side of the plate the fork goes on, how to cut food properly (with a knife), and even how to pronounce foreign words.

So, impress your friends by preheating the oven. And don't forget to take the giblets out of the chicken. This is the perfect gift for any bachelor, recent graduate, or college student.
