FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
The
Essential Best Foods Cookbook
225 Irresistible Recipes Featuring the Healthiest and Most
Delicious Foods
by Dana Jacobi
(Spring, 2008)
Delectable smart food, rich in micronutrients, essential
protein, fiber, the right carbohydrates, easy preparations,
and more ─ these are the essentials in Dana Jacobi’s
new book THE ESSENTIAL BEST FOODS COOKBOOK (May 2008;
Rodale Books; Paperback; $23.95; 32 Full-color Photos).
Building on the repertoire she presented in 12 Best Foods
Cookbook, Dana expands her list to 61 superfoods and
creates 225 easy, innovative and new recipes to delight the
novice and experienced home cook.
In
creating the recipes, Dana’s first requirement was basic ─
make every dish delicious. After all, no matter how healthy a
dish is, if it doesn’t taste great, it won’t get eaten. The
resulting recipes prove Dana’s unique ability to marry
health-promoting results with great taste and texture. In a
comprehensive opening chapter, she explains why each
ingredient is so good for us and also provides valuable
shopping and storage advice.
Recipes include:
-
Roasted Tomato Soup
-
Turkey Waldorf Salad
-
Cocoa-Crusted Beef Filet with Pomegranate
Sauce
-
Upside-Down Pineapple Sweet Potatoes
-
My Mom's One-Crust Apple Pie
-
Lemon Yogurt Cheesecake
The recipes feature helpful tips, including basic techniques
for grilling,
baking, pan-searing,
and poaching, and serving alternatives. And since lack of time
frequently
challenges those
who want to eat more healthfully, many recipes are ready in 30
minutes or less. In The Essential Best
Foods Cookbook, Dana
provides readers with the winning combination of the knowledge
to
cook with confidence, guidance for health-enhancing eating,
and a collection of fabulously varied
and approachable recipes that have made her an internationally
award-winning author.
