A Los Angeles caterer and cooking teacher, Wemischner is fascinated, even obsessed, with strong flavors. His recipes, grouped into such categories as Pleasantly Puckery and Perfectly Pungent, feature exotic and assertive ingredients, often in unususal combinations. Poblano Pepper Pilaf, for example, is stuffed peppers-poblanos, not bell, stuffed with a bulgur pilaf and served with a tomato-cilantro coulis and sauce based on hummus. Sometimes he goes over the top with the recipe names as well as the recipes themselves; fewer adjectives, and fewer ingredients, might have been better in some cases. But adventurous, experienced cooks will find new ideas-and new ingredients-to try. For larger collections.
