Synopsis
More Home Cooking is an expression of Laurie Colwin's lifelong passion for cuisine. In this delightful mix of recipes, advice, and anecdotes, she writes about often-overlooked food items such as beets, pears, black beans, and chutney. With down-to-earth charm and wit, Colwin also discusses the many pleasures and problems of cooking at home in essays including "Desserts That Quiver," "Turkey Angst," and "Catering on One Dollar a Head." As informative as it is entertaining, More Home Cooking is a delicious treat for anyone who loves to spend time in the kitchen.

Review
"Laurie Colwin teaches us how to cook, eat, deal with disasters, write and live. We turn to her books for a kind of comfort and sustenance that only she can provide."--Emily Gould, author of Friendship
"The first time I read Laurie Colwin I knew I'd found the friend I'd always wanted to join me in the kitchen. Warm, funny, and unpretentious . . . Her recipes were easy and delicious. All these years later...I turn to Laurie Colwin. And she never lets me down."--Ruth Reichl, author of Delicious!
"Filled with essays about food, family, and life...Her writing is a treat...It's a joy to read--the kind of work that makes you want to get cooking yourself."--Boston Phoenix
"Colwin's writing is down-to-earth and friendly, as though she is presenting little morsels she has prepared just for you. There are no frills or tricks. Like a classic dish, her writing's magic in its simplicity."--Charlotte Observer
"We all need a best friend when we are at home cooking; this is the next best thing."--Seattle Weekly
