'CRISP' incorporates recipes that have appeared previously in 'Kitchen', 'Food + Drink', 'Fresh' and 'Zest'
28 Jun 2007
Format:Paperback
'From cool, crisp salads to simple stir-fries, these recipes use the best of green vegetables and herbs. Whether it's a green bean and pistachio salad, pea and lettuce soup, herbed chicken or baked apples, these recipes are perfect for when you want light, fresh food.'
400 quality pages, split over main chapters:-
1. Starters and sides
2. Light meals
3. Mains
4. Sweets
5. Drinks
6. Basics
with an introduction, a glossary and an index.
'Marie Claire: Crisp is a collection of fresh, cool and light recipes using ingredients such as lettuce, cucumber and herbs.
Continuing in the Marie Claire tradition, this book will inspire with its modern, fresh approach to food and entertaining.......
I've had a lot of fun re-visiting old favourites and I hope that you have as much fun cooking and eating from our selection...'
The quality of writing one has come to expect from Marie Claire publications.
Each recipe is clearly laid out with a list of ingredients, number of servings and the method.
The vast majority of the dishes have photographs and the book has useful `ingredient notes'.
Overall a useful coffee table book, but I have to be honest and say that I do think that in this new 'chunky' format, it is now much harder to leave the book open at your favourite recipe whilst attempting to recreate it in the kitchen!
A taste of the recipes within:-
* Thai style Papaya Salad
* Rice Paper Rolls
* Pickled Swordfish
* Lemon Curry Scallops
* Crab Cocktail in a Leaf
* Caesar Salad Cups
* Buttered Roast Asparagus
* Cucumber Tea Sandwiches
* Fennel Remoulade
* Orange and Watercress Salad
* Guacamole
* Chicken and Miso Soup
* Prawns with Coriander and Lime
* White Chicken Salad
* Lamb Fillets with a Sesame Chutney
* Winter Chicken Soup
* Green Pea Curry
* Mushroom and Tofu Stir-Fry
* Lime Syrup Puddings
* Apple Tartlets
* Classic Daiquiri
* Tropical Rum Blend
* Martini
* Pesto
* Dressings
* Stocks
* Tamarind Water

Format:Paperback
This is an excellent salad recipe book. Frequently salad books offer menus without originality, however, I believe this is one of the very best. The salad recipes are varied and use ingredients for a healthy diet, combining tastes people may not have previously considered. I have used some of these and enjoyed following the recipes. The photographic images considerably helped in my decision making process. I feel stimulated and often think, "What shall I create today ?"
Thanks
