Barefoot Contessa At Home

In Barefoot Contessa at Home, Ina shares the recipes she loves, and her secrets to making guests feel welcome and comfortable. Here she offers the recipes she makes over and over again because they're easy, they work, and they're universally loved. For a leisurely Sunday breakfast, she has Easy Cheese Danishes or Breakfast Fruit Crunch to serve with the perfect Spicy Bloody Mary. For lunch, she has classics with a twist, such as Tomato, Mozarella and Pesto Panini and Old-Fashioned Potato salad, which are simply delicious. Then there are Ina's homey dinners u from her own version of loin of pork stuffed with saut ed fennel to the exotic flavours of Eli's Asian Salmon. And there are outrageously luscious sweets like Peach and Blueberry Crumble and Pumpkin Mousse Parfait. Ina also lets readers in on her time-tested strategies for cooking and entertaining - from what she considers when she's designing a kitchen, to menu-planning basics. In this beautifully illustrated book, Ina Garten proves beyond a shadow of doubt that there truly is no place like home.
