The good food A cookbook of soups, stews, and pastas

Daniel Halpern, 1945-

Book - 2019

"An enduringly popular collection of beloved dishes from around the world featuring classic and easy-to-cook recipes When it was first published in 1985, The Good Food was one of the first cookbooks devoted to the celebration of the best-loved and most satisfying essentials of casual cuisine and, more than thirty years later, it has remained a classic in its genre. Drawing on the diverse cooking traditions of the Americas, Italy, France, India, Morocco, and the Middle East, Daniel Halpern and Julie Strand bring together almost two hundred recipes, including not only the quintessential examples of each cuisine, but also unusual dishes that provide surprising gastronomic rewards. The book features international staples such as Gazpacho a...nd Jambalaya, as well as unexpected delights-Bobotie; Lamb Stew with Eggplant, Saffron, and Ginger; and Penne with Black Olive Puree and Ricotta. The Good Food puts the emphasis where it belongs: on the pleasure of preparing-and eating-excellent and timeless dishes."--Publisher's description.

Review by Booklist Review

For the beginning cook who wants to broaden horizons and offer guests more than quotidian food, Halpern and Strand present this collection, first published in 1985, of recipes for soups, stews, and pasta dishes sure to make centerpieces for delightfully memorable dinner parties. On cold and snowy nights, who wouldn't want to gather around a steaming tureen of minestrone that the authors festoon with all manner of winter vegetables? Guests will be equally impressed with rabbit stew with cabbage and mustard or a spicy duck-and-sausage gumbo. Really adventuresome cooks will want to tackle a South African bobotie or Mexican posole. A nearby fishmonger will make doable some seafood-sauced pastas beyond the expected linguini with white-clam sauce. Purists will argue over the strict authenticity of some of Halpern and Strand's dishes, but both ingredients and techniques fall well within the abilities of basically competent cooks.--Mark Knoblauch Copyright 2019 Booklist
