Cooked to Perfection or Wolf in Chefs Clothing

Cooked to Perfection

Author: Phyllis P Corella

Andrew and Phyllis Corella were born in New York City in East Harlem and raised at a time when food was kept cold in an icebox. Their parents and grandparents shopped daily for items such as fresh fruits, vegetables and meats. The authors have attempted to present a variety of foods. They offer new twists on old family recipes. There are dishes that you may prepare once a year and dishes that will be part of your weekly menu. All of the dishes are easy to prepare.

Wolf in Chef's Clothing: The Picture Cook and Drink Book for Men

Author: Richard H Loeb

Interest in lounge culture is nearly as high as during the golden age of the '50s and '60s. And even lounge lizards have to eat - and drink. This humorous guide to entertaining, first published in 1950, is a retro period piece that will satisfy the most discriminating tastes, no matter how pickled. Recipes are presented entirely in pictures, step by step, from conception to perfection - and all with deliciously dry wit. Easy-to-make breakfasts-for-two, canapes, barbecue suppers, picnic food, midnight repasts, and, of course, drinks - before-dinner drinks, drinks with dinner, after-dinner drinks, and drinks having nothing to do with meals - are ideal for men with kitchen "no"-how! "When a crowd descends upon you for an evening of bridge or poker, or just for conviviality at your expense, do you know what to serve? Or on a long, hot summer's afternoon, what to quaff? Or on a bleak, black winter's day, what to snift? Read on." - from the book

First published in 1950, Robert H. Loeb, Jr.'s Wolf In Chef's Clothing is a unique "picturebook" approach for educating men on how to prepare basic recipes for breakfast, lunch, dinner, midnight snacks, and barbecues. From omelets to Shrimps Cobra, from canapes to Martini's, the step-by-step picture-based instructions are fool proof and will instruct even the most basic male novice to the mysteries of food and drink preparation. Whether a married man seeking to give his spouse a break in the kitchen, or a bachelor seeking to impress friends and family, Wolf In Chef's Clothing is sure to enhance any meal time or special celebration event.
