Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Most recipes serve four to six people, leaving the solo cook in a predicament. Enter acclaimed cookbook author Joyce Goldstein and her stellar repertoire of meals that are fun for one. From hearty recipes like Spicy Tortilla and Lime Soup and Tuscan Style Rib-Eye Steak with Rosemary and Garlic, to dressed-up salads and seasonal fruit gratins, each dish is designed to serve one in style.

Essential tips and techniques offer valuable advice on smart shopping for one and stocking the pantry. Numerous recipe variations take advantage of seasonal ingredients, while an array of sauces can turn that salmon filler or lamb streak into a gourmet feast. When the good company is your own. Solo Suppers is the way to go.

I just received it in the mail, and I'm already thrilled with it. She opens with tips on planning your shopping trips, what to do with leftovers, how to keep wine fresh longer (!), and then keeps the tips coming with the recipes as well. Just flipping through the Sauces section, each recipe not only had suggestions as to what to serve it with, but different ways to use it -- thin it, simmer it, freeze it, fridge it, etc. If you're looking for small recipes with lots of helpful tips and tricks, this is the book for you!
