Discover the grandeur and opulence of delicious historic recipes from the private collection of Mrs. George Washington Vanderbilt, updated for life in the 1990s. They are joined by the renowned recipes of Deerpark Restaurant, located on the Biltmore Estate.
Documenting and celebrating America's lasting love affair with eating out, May I Take Your Order? presents 250 color reproductions of classic menus from the 1920s through the 1960s. In addition to their unique graphic appeal, restaurant menus reflect the styles and attitudes — not to mention prices — of their times.
Boulud succeeds in bringing his inspired food to the home kitchen with 200 recipes divided into four sections, each representing a theme that influences his menus: classic French dishes, seasonal specialities, world cuisine and dishes from the vegetable garden.
1,600 recipes — ALL the recipes from ALL of Stewart's books: Entertaining, Quick Cook, Pies & Tarts, Hors d'Oeuvres, Quick Cook Menus, Gardening, Weddings, Christmas, and Menus for Entertaining — are gathered together in this volume with new step-by-step illustrations, new menus, and sidebars and tips on freezing pastry, selecting the best fruit, and setting the table.
Who knew foods with cancer-fighting potential could taste this good? Tasty Reuben sandwiches, crispy french fries and creamy chocolate pudding — recipes for these and 79 other delectable dishes make practical use of the most recent research on the role of nutrition in fighting cancer.
