changed so rapidly. Exciting new ingredients are available
everywhere, expanding our culinary horizons. Even casual meals have
globe-trotting flavors. We want memorable dishes, and we want them
to be healthy for our families and our planet. And with our busy

culinary world calls for a new cookbook. Gourmet Today responds to
our changing foodscape with more vegetarian recipes, more recipes
for popular dishes from every corner of the world, more recipes for
stunning meals ready in 30 minutes or less, more simple ways to
prepare all the vegetables in the farmers' market, advice on
choosing sustainable fish, chicken, and beef, tips on throwing an
easy cocktail party, more recipes for flavorful techniques like
grilling, and more recipes for the new ingredients flooding our
market.Each of the over 1,000 recipes was selected by editor in
chief Ruth Reichl, a best-selling author in her own right, who
wrote the introductions to each chapter. Every recipe has been
tested and cross-tested in the Gourmet test kitchen so every cook,
whether a first-timer or a veteran, gets impeccable results. With
menus for holidays and other seasonal occasions, an authoritative
glossary of ingredients (plus mail-order sources), and hundreds of
sidebars on ingredients and handy techniques from the test kitchen,
Gourmet Today is the indispensable book for today's cook.
