Perla Meyers Art of Seasonal Cooking or Feed a Crowd Southern Cook Book

Perla Meyers' Art of Seasonal Cooking

Author: Perla Meyers

Perla Meyers, the award-winning author, combines the culinary sophistication of the last decade with her original simple notion of seasonality. Here are more than 300 recipes that bring pure pleasure in any season. In the spring try Ziti with Asparagus, Peas & Lemon Cream, Warm Shrimp Salad with Crisp Vegetables Nicoise, & Stuffed Strawberries in Pineapple-Mint Coulis. The book is divided by season, with five superb menus for each time of the year, followed by that seasons appetizers, soups, main courses, vegetables, salads, & desserts. A chapter of classic Basics is handy at the back of the book.

Long before ``fresh'' became a catchword, Meyers wrote The Seasonal Kitchen ( LJ 8/73), full of dishes that made the most of seasonal ingredients. In her first book in many years, she emphasizes ingredients that are ``truly seasonal''--not strawberries flown in from Chile in midwinter, but those picked in New Engalnd in late spring. She offers five menus for each season, along with dozens of additional recipes. The recipes are varied and international in inspiration; however, some are quite complicated, and some of the menus seem rather heavy on cream-based dishes. For larger collections.
