No marks or stamps noted. Frugal Gourmet Jeff Smith has specialized in uncovering the cuisines of the world --- and those of the people down the block --- for tens of millions of Americans. He brings us a modern view of the kitchen as family center. This is the most unusual book I have written, says The Frug, who developed an accompanying twenty-part PBS television series. And it is also the most important. Only Jeff Smith, an ordained Methodist minister, has the unique combination of talents to tackle subjects as widely diverse as the American soda fountain and cooking for one in the same volume. This is a fresh exploration of the meaning of food, family, and kitchen, inspired by Jeff's concern that all people grandmas, bachelors, single women with kids, widowers, and even normal families --- eat well. This book will help single people cook good fresh food rather than relying on fast food, and will help busy families set up menus and kitchens so that dinner once again can become a special time. In The Frugal Gourmet Whole Family Cookbook The Frug tackles the tough subjects such as loneliness, guilt, and even healthy eating, which he says is good eating --- and fun. He offers insights into the impact that new lifestyles and family forms have had on food and meals. He discusses commonsense approaches to kitchen design, safety, and equipment, bearing in mind the special needs of our rapidly aging population. And he devotes an entire section to the delights of cooking with children. Of course there are scores of new Frugal Gourmet recipes as well, drawn from Jeff's own kitchen experience as well as from his visits with families across the United States. These are recipes designed for the way people cook now, and the way we will be cooking well into the twenty-first century: Steak and Lentil Salad, Steamed Fish, Chinese Style, and Chicken Smoked with Olive Oil, for example. There are also time-honored recipes for the new cooks in the family: Jeff's favorite hamburger; a variety of omelets, pastas, and delicious vegetable dishes; cooking with herbs; using fruits in cooking; and bread baking. It's all topped off with spectacular desserts, ranging from Strawberries and Balsamic Vinegar to Frozen Chocolate Bananas, and includingin the unique soda fountain section-oldfashioned recipes for sundaes, frappes, shakes, sodas, phosphates, floats, and more. This is a book that reflects the changes taking place in the American family, and one that returns the joys of cooking and eating to their rightful place: the kitchen.

"Delicious recipes from the cultures that most influenced Western cooking. Lavishly illustrated with more than 200 line drawings." Two Reader Reviews: By Stephanie Manley: "This book by Jeff Smith has to be my favorite one that he has written. This book focuses on recipes from China, Greece, and Rome. The recipes in this book are flavorful, and very enjoyable. My favorite recipe in here is strangely enough Garlic, Eggs, and Pasta. There is a wide range in recipes, both in flavors and ingredients. Jeff Smith does an excellent job of pairing history as well as anecdotes with all of his recipes. This should be a must add for anyone who enjoys historical cooking." By Another Reader: "Whenever I entertain my Greek relatives, they are amazed by my flair in their native cooking. Jeff's recipes are easy to follow and make Greek cooking simple.".
