Product Description

Almost one million subscribers heartily agree: there's always something delicious going on in Food & Wine.

And it's all here in the annual cookbook, which includes an entire year of 2008 recipes--more than 600 of them--accompanied by over 250 scrumptious-looking photographs.

The contributors remain absolutely stellar: the culinary world's finest, including such cookbook authors, chefs, and food luminaries as Jacques Pepin, Jean-Georges Vongerichten, Paula Wolfert, and Al Roker.

Mouthwatering dishes from Emeril Lagasse, Mario Batali, and Thomas Keller were tested on home appliances, making them easy to re-create. In addition, the volume includes 50 brand-new test-kitchen tips, as well as an extensive glossary of accessible wines. Here are recipes that reflect the many ways we cook today; real food that real people who want to eat well can actually prepare.

These exceptionally clear recipes will enable you to create impressive, restaurant-style dishes in your own kitchen.

5.0 out of 5 stars Lots of good ideas, July 1, 2009

By	Hoc Stercus "beeper99" (Hudson, NY USA) - See all my reviews

I find this particular volume an excellent addition to my cookbook library. Unlike previouse editions where the recipes are divided up into sections according to season, this one is structured along more traditional lines: appetizers, pork, beef, pasta, salads, etc. So finding a desirable recipe is relativelye easy. Best of all, there are a good number of recipes in this book I want to try. The ones I have already attempted have yielded excellent results. I particularly like this book for the number of creative dishes I haven't encountered before. When looking for an interesting recipe, this is now one of the cookbooks I go to first. Another plus: most of the ingredients called for in these recipes can now be found in my local supermarket.
