Annotations:
Each year, McCullough and Stevens launch an all-out search for the best and most distinctive recipes that appear in print, from the deservedly famous to the wonderfully obscure. Now the two editors raise the bar even higher, pitting their favorites from over the years against one another to create a collection of the all-time best-ever recipes.
Publisher's Remarks:
The Best of the Best from the Last Decade
Acclaimed by the critics, The Best American Recipes series has long been the universal choice of home cooks and professional chefs as the one infallible source of the year's most dazzling recipes.
Now in The 150 Best American Recipes, two of the food world's most respected professionals pull out all the stops to create the ultimate resource: a can't-live-without-it collection of the most exciting recipes of the last decade. Out of literally tens of thousands of recipes that have appeared in print -- in cookbooks, magazines, newspapers, and even in flyers and on the Internet -- from the deservedly famous to the wonderfully obscure, from top-flight chefs to unknown but gifted cooks -- they chose the most distinctive. Then came the key step: extensive testing in their own kitchens. If the dish wasn't spectacular, it didn't make the cut. Finally, they pitted their favorites against one another and chose the winners: the very best of the best.
In The 150 Best American Recipes, you'll find:
Scores of brilliantly simple dishes that are sensationally delicious.
The best recipes from the great chefs and cooks of the era, including Jamie Oliver, Thomas Keller, Judy Rodgers, and Alice Waters.
Miraculously quick, remarkable everyday dishes that you'll want to make countless times and share with your friends.
Holiday dishes that are certain to become instant traditions in your family.
Valuable tips and techniques to make all your cooking easier.
