Fearless Cooking for Men [first edition]

Fearless Cooking For Men - FEARLESS COOKING FOR MEN BY MICHELE EVANS If you're afraid of being alone and helpless in the kitchen, this book is your rescue. The author, who has taught at the New York Times Cooking School, entertains regularly from a kitchen so small that she affectionately calls it "Spot." She writes for you-if you are hesitant to venture into your own kitchen certain that you can learn to cook easily and eagerly if given some fundamentals, clear instructions and interesting recipes. She has collected, in addition to her own favorites, recipes from well known men who love to cook-David Hartman, Alfred Drake, Jacques Pépin, Vincent Sardi, and dozens of others. Ms. Evans gives you not only the essential rules of basic cooking but also a glossary of terms. And she recommends and gives recipes for five pieces of cooking equipment really worth buying: a crepe pan; a clay pot; a slow crock cooker; a wok; and the Cuisinart food processor. There are bachelor meals here for one, two, three, four, or more; plans for cooking for (and with) kids; diet recipes; barbecue recipes; a celebration dinner for one (to celebrate, perhaps, just being alone); an elaborate breakfast for two; a grand dinner for six. Plus a list of everything you'll need as host at a cocktail party and a dinner party.
