About this title

Synopsis:

Featuring recipes adapted for simpler preparation from cuisines worldwide, this cookbook includes main dishes, salads, and desserts, as well as foods to eat in bed and to present as gifts

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
