Synopsis

Hardcover with 275 pages - approx size: 7 3/4 x 9 1/2" - This is the book for folks who like to eat well but may be a little lazy about traveling to the store on a rainy Sunday afternoon; to tired to stop at the market after work; or just to frugal not to use what's on hand. Pasta, beans, canned tuna and sardines, eggs, cheese, milk-all these foods even indifferent housekeepers have on hand form the basis of nutritious, tasty, easy meals. This is not fancy food. It's everyday food with traditional recipes, mainly updated working class and farm food for the new working class: singles, couples, and young families that often do not have the time to shop. It is for those with the most basic cooking skills, who want guidance and inspiration for taking the most mundane and long-lasting ingredients and turning them into a comforting plate of food. Arthur Schwartz is the restaurant critic for the N.Y. Daily News.
