From the Inside Flap

From the creators of The New Professional Chef a cookbook that brings restaurant–quality meals to the home kitchen! From Our Kitchens The Culinary Institute of America Now the great dishes of the professional chefs can be prepared right at home! Featuring many of the best recipes tested and taught at the kitchens of the renowned Culinary Institute of America, From Our Kitchens makes some of the world s finest, most exotic dishes accessible to the American table. While many of these recipes are for dishes not traditionally thought of as "home cooking," they were developed for non–professional chefs who relish the experience of preparing (and enjoying!) restaurant–quality meals at home on a regular basis. All of the recipes are easy to prepare, provide nutritional analysis, and use standard American measurements. Included are more than 120 recipes that have been adapted from The New Professional Chef and The Professional Chef s Techniques of Healthy Cooking, both of which were nominated for book awards by The James Beard Foundation and the International Association of Culinary Professionals. From Our Kitchens also includes 30 "never–before–seen" recipes from the Institute s kitchens. There s a sumptuous array of appetizers, salads, soups, pastas, pizzas, grains and beans, entrées, vegetables, potatoes, and desserts. Here s just a sampling:

• Appetizers and Salads Smoked Chicken with Tabbouleh and Tomato–Herb Vinaigrette, Seafood Sausage with Shrimp and Pistachios, Tagliolini with Smoked Salmon and Fresh Peas
• Soups Pan–Smoked Tomato Bisque, Amish–Style Chicken and Corn Soup, Pumpkin Soup with Ginger Cream

Many of these dishes can be prepared quickly, while others are for when the cook is looking for a true adventure in the kitchen. Useful preparation notes are accompanied by serving suggestions that include traditional as well as innovative ways to present dishes. Additional tips show how to adapt recipes to suit a particular family s preferences. Filled with concisely presented recipes that have been perfected through many hours of testing, From Our Kitchens belongs near the stove of every serious home cook. Bon appetit!
