This review is from: Spring Evening Summer Afternoon (Hardcover)

Barbara Goodman-Scott was inspired by the foods visible in the markets and gardens of Long Island's east end. She uses her training as an artist and her instincts as a cook to create a collection of easy, yet flexible recipes that are sure to impress. The preparation of most recipes is, as she promised, no more exerting ..."than pouring another glass of iced tea". The dishes 'travel' well for pot luck suppers or spontaneous gatherings. The 'Asparagus Vinaigrette' and 'Roasted Red Potato Salad with Arugula and Goat Cheese' are easily prepared in advance and served at room temperature making it possible to enjoy the leisurely afternoons or spectacular sunsets of summer while enjoying gourmet-style cuisine.
