Synopses & Reviews
Two at the Table will feature a diverse stable of recipes, from starters and salads to savory items and desserts and will contain between 125 and 140 recipes when finished. The recipes will be selected for tastiness, sophistication, and healthfulness. About one-third of the recipes are accompanied by color photographs. With the focus of recipes that serve just two, the author will address quantities of ingredients (what do you do with the other half of the chicken?) as well as the changes to a household pantry that has recently been organized around quick and quantity (bywords of feeding teenagers). Cheryl Fall advocates the use of special—some very special—ingredients, now that the kids who never appreciated them are gone (from Mooroccan preserved lemons to special kinds of salt and the best olive oils. Oh, and now you can cook mushrooms! In addition, the author, herself a recent empty-nest parent, will offer up suggestions on how to make the kitchen a more romantic place. Its still the center of the modern house but now its the location of special dates for couples
