Reviews

Celebrity St. John says that "Salads are terribly important, nutritionally speaking," and most of her writing is equally slangy. The recipes are mainstream, with bows toward the trendy: flower salad, Szechuan vodka, Jewish pizza a la Spago. Instructions are often casual: muesli lists chopped apples as an ingredient, and then instructs the cook to grate them. Photographs and index not seen. Not for libraries. SP
