Taste Pure and Simple: Irresistible Recipes for Good Food and Good Health
Taste Pure and Simple: Irresistible Recipes for Good Food and Good Health
As seen on Oprah! Acclaimed chef Michel Nischan knows that eating well is all about balance, and his beautiful cookbook proves that robust meals can be both healthy and flavorful. Avoiding the high-fat dairy products prevalent in so many cookbooks, he uses vegetable juices and olive oil to achieve the same luscious flavors. Who knew that sweet potatoes make a rich sauce thats fabulous drizzled over oriander-seasoned duck? Or that creamy white bean dip spread on crusty bread could make you forget about butter? And after eating a healthful dinner, its okay to indulge in a dessert like Flourless Hazelnut Cake. A chapter on basics provides a solid foundation of stocks and sauces, while the glossary describes how to find and use unusual ingredients. For the good home cook who craves something new and delicious and particularly those who want to eat well while maintaining a heart-healthy diet, its simply a matter of Taste Pure and Simple. Awards and honors for Taste Pure and Simple:Best Healthy Focus & Vegetarian cookbook (James Beard Foundation Award)
