About this title

Synopsis

For the first time, the master recipes of the world’s greatest chefs are now revealed! In this exciting and extraordinary cookbook more than 450 recipes representing the Specialties of the House of the finest restaurants are presented. And it’s a delicious fact that they are easy to read, easy to understand, and easy to prepare. Sandy Lesberg has collected recipes that have heretofore been found only on the menus of the most select restaurants both in the United States and abroad. Now you can produce them in your own home, and you’ll soon discover that all the recipes have one thing in common. There is a basic simplicity. The fundamental truth about cooking is that more can be accomplished with ingenuity and loving attention than with mumbo jumbo. In preparing the book, the author has reaffirmed the maxim that the more outstanding the restaurant and the more exalted the chef, the less complicated is their approach to food. Anyone with serious intent and a sound sense of taste, together with a practical spirit of adventure, can produce dishes of quality and, with the proper coaching, even of distinction.
