Recipes 1-2-3: Fabulous Food Using Only Three Ingredients

Front Cover
Viking, 1996 - Cooking - 306 pages
Time is not on our side. Not only don't we have time to cook, we often don't even have time to shop for food. Imagine being able to choose from more than 250 dazzling recipes that contain only three ingredients. With Recipes 1-2-3 you can shop for a three-course dinner for six and still go through the express checkout line at the supermarket! Award-winning author and chef Rozanne Gold has built a unique repertoire of dishes that maximize flavor by eliminating extraneous ingredients. A calendar of fifty-two menus highlights time-honored holidays and ingredients at their seasonal peaks: May brings bundles of Asparagus and Prosciutto with Melted Fontina, and aromatic Turkish Cherry Bread, while a July Fourth celebration explodes with "Fire and Ice" Gazpacho and Husk-Roasted Corn. Recipes 1-2-3 includes an index of fat-free, low-fat, and low-calorie dishes: the margins feature suggestions for "Add-Ons" and intriguing food and wine pairings called "Grapenotes". Every recipe has been remarkably distilled to save time, intensify flavor, and even enhance the beauty of food, as showcased in the book's thirty-two gorgeous full-color photographs.
