In Jacques Pépin Fast Food My Way, the man who taught millions of
Americans how to cook shares the techniques he honed in the most famous
kitchens of the world to show you how to create simple, special meals in
minutes.
In this companion volume to his new series on public television, Jacques
shows you how to create great-tasting dishes ranging from stunning
salads such as Tomato and Mozzarella Fans to Supreme of Chicken with
Balsamic Vinegar and Shallot Sauce to his breathtaking Almond Cake with
Berries, all special enough for company, yet easy enough for those
weekday evenings when you have no time.
Fast food Jacques's way involves no compromises in taste but saves you
hours in the kitchen. His Instant Beef Tenderloin Stew, for instance,
not only is far faster to make than traditional versions, but tastes
brighter and fresher. With concise, clear directions, Jacques shares the
secrets of his kitchen. He teaches you how to season a salmon fillet
perfectly and cook it in a low oven, right on the serving platter.
You'll learn how to make a satisfying homemade vegetable soup in
seconds, a baked potato in half the usual time, and a succulent roast
that takes minutes, not hours, to prepare. He also shows you how to
create elegant meals from convenience foods: a bean dip that will keep
guests coming back for more, silky soups, and caramelized peaches made
from canned peaches.
With Jacques Pépin Fast Food My Way at your side, the best food is
always the simplest.
