BAREFOOT CONTESSA PARTIES By Ina Garten
Clarkson Potter $45.00 CDN
From her first highly successful cookbook and her renowned catering and specialty food business, The Barefoot Contessa, we know that Ina Garten knows how to make great food simple; with this, her second book , she gives us a wealth of recipes and ideas for parties that are really fun.
Ina insists that the key to a successful party is a relaxed and joyful host and she tells us all how to achieve that. Although she cooks and caters for hundreds every week through her business, Ina “assembles” rather than cooks when she entertains at home, doing as much preparation as possible before the day of the party and incorporating excellent prepared foods into party menus. The recipes in this book are virtually all completed in advance and simply put together at the last minute.. The seasonally organized parties are filled with inspiring photos and provide a springboard for creative event planning. With sage advice for the novice and experienced party-giver alike, Barefoot Contessa Parties makes it possible to, quite literally, have your cake and enjoy it too!
