Queer Eye for the Straight Guy's food-and-wine connoisseur, Ted Allen, presents a quick-reference cookbook-giving you the food you really want to cook and eat, and the know-how to pull it off with ease. "With most cookbooks, you could plow through 134 pages of complicated hors d'oeuvres, salads, and the author's philosophical musings about food before you get to the stuff you actually want to eat. Not here. I'm going to save you the trouble and get to the point right up front." These first sentences of the book sum up what Ted Allen's The Food You Want to Eat is all about-the tempting, delicious, satisfying fare you really want on your dinner table tonight, without the fuss and the formalities. Ted also delves into chapters on an array of fantastic salads that are a far cry from rabbit food; pastas featuring Italian classics like a great ziti with sausage and your basic pasta with red sauce, as well as easy Asian adventures such as cold soba noodles with sesame-peanut sauce; seafood for everyone who's afraid to cook fish; meats that range from an amazing marinated grilled pork tenderloin and killer chili to a classic pot roast and osso buco; vegetable recipes that will make you love broccoli in a whole new way; and desserts for after dinner-and breakfasts for after after dinner. This is the debut cookbook from one of the most engaging, most entertaining people ever to wield a spatula, filled with the incredibly simple, delicious real-life recipes for The Food You Want to Eat. In a word, mmmm.
