About this title

Synopsis

Booty Food n. Any food that causes weak knees, accelerated heartbeat, tingly body parts, and other symptoms traditionally associated with falling in love.

In the first guide for readers passionate about love and food, Jacqui Malouf, comedian and TV food personality, combines two of life's most primal drives. Equal parts naughty and nice, Booty Food is filled with laugh-out-loud advice about dating, sex, and relationships as well as more than seventy delicious yet user-friendly recipes designed to complement each stage of a long-lasting love affair.

Not just your run-of-the-mill aphrodisiac cookbook, Booty Food takes you on a culinary road trip through the major stages of a relationship-with tried and true tips on first date eating, seductive yet simple suggestions for the first home-cooked meal, menus for meeting the parents and friends, and imaginative dishes and desserts for keeping a long-term relationship hot and satisfying. Jacqui also serves up wildly original ideas for filling your "Passion Pantry" and, when you're ready for round two, dishes out tantalizing treats and tips in "Cheese: Nature's Viagra."

The recipes and gorgeous photographs by Ben Fink are just as tantalizing: Fresh Oysters with Red Wine Mignonette. Mango Brie Quesadillas. Sea Bass with Green Curry-Coconut Sauce and Nectarine Pico de Gallo. Pomegranate Margaritas. Lobster Eggs Benedict Poached in Champagne Butter. And Chocolate Souffle Cake with Chocolate Glaze and Shaved Chocolate. Destined to be flour-dusted and dog-eared, Booty Food is the ultimate guide to finding your soul mate inside and outside of the kitchen.
