DESCRIPTION:
Easy, fun, and delicious! Ina Garten is a master in the kitchen and in her specialty food store and she has transferred her talent into this cookbook. The recipes are easy to follow and easy to make from hummus to lemon chicken to her absolutely delicious raspberry tart she scores on every one.One thing to note is how often she calls for fresh ingredients.

Any upscale bed and breakfast could have this book in the kitchen and get rid of all others. But just as
Finally, the energy and style that make Barefoot Contessa such a special place are shown here, with dozens of recipes and more than 160 breathtaking photographs, in The Barefoot Contessa Cookbook. Ina's most popular recipes use familiar ingredients, but they taste even better than you would expect. The batter for the Raspberry Corn Muffins can be mixed a day before and popped into the oven just before breakfast. Ina Garten teaches us how to entertain with style, simplicity, and a relaxed sense of fun. The ingredients for Grilled Salmon Salad can all be prepared ahead and tossed together before serving. For many of those years, people have tried to get the exuberant owner, Ina Garten, to share the secrets of her store. And they're all in this book. Tomato soup is created from oven-roasted tomatoes and fresh basil to intensify the flavors. And there are easy instructions for creating gorgeous party platters that don't even require you to cook! &nbs
