"Entertaining
is my main pleasure,
my forte," James Beard wrote in the original introduction to this book.
Menus For Entertaining, first published
in 1965, proved to be one
of James Beard's most popular cookbooks. It showed off his flair for
putting
together innovative meals for a wide range of occasions.

Although it is
no longer possible to learn from the great master in person, many of
the
recipes in this book come from his cooking classes. Menus For
Entertaining
is as close as we can come to being graced with the well-respected
chef's
presence and expertise. |
