Synopsis
Less is more – except when it involves great food bought in bulk. It’s not hard to find extraordinary deals on a wide array of great ingredients at warehouse stores like Costco or at supercenters like Wal-Mart or Fred Meyer, but is it really a bargain if the food goes to waste – or if you run out of ideas for that giant jar of sun-dried tomatoes? Even the most creative cooks need help when it comes to using up what may be too much of a good thing (think oversize block of cheese). This collection of recipes from Fine Cooking magazine includes 75 inventive recipes created around 25 bulk food buys that are hard to resist. Step-by-step instructions, helpful hints and tips, plus full-color photographs will change the way savvy shoppers cook and eat.
