Robert Carrier's Entertaining
Author: Robert Carrier

Bringing glamour to great food used to be a secret art available only to a privileged few. But not anymore. Now, thanks to Robert Carrier, superbly cooked food, appropriately selected wines and a beautifully bid-out table are easy for everyone! — Robert Carrier is a name synonymous with elegance. As Food and Drink Editor of House Beautiful and ow... more »ner of "Carrier's," voted London's "Restaurant of the Year" for 1978, he is internationally acknowledged as one of the world's leading authorities on gracious dining. But Robert Carrier believes that fabulous dishes and sophisticated serving are simple to achieve for anyone. Entertaining demonstrates exactly how.

Here are over 300 carefully chosen recipes from canapes to mouth-watering desserts, each with clear, step-by-step instructions that make them a joy to follow. Robert Carrier not only suggests the most suitable menus for every occasion, but tells you exactly which wine provides the best accompaniment. Enjoy a simple Italian dinner of Tortellini in Brodo, served with buttered spinach and followed by a cold orange souffle. Delight your guests with steamy, flamed sea bass and fluffy, fruit-filled summer pudding, or icy Crab Louis with cucumbers, before "tournedos" of lamb and petit,pots au chocolat. From American turkey stuffed with sausage and chestnuts to the most elaborate French haute cuisine, these dishes are marvelous to prepare, for the experienced chef or the most timid beginner. And Carrier also provides complete menu plans to bring new charm to every occasion-from formal dinners for 16 to luncheons and brunches. These delectable meals are presented in a full-color, lavishly illustrated volume that is itself a visual feast.

Robert Carrier provides a wonderful new range of recipes and many creative menus, but as a world-renowned host he knows there is much more to a successful evening than the food alone. And so he shares with you his knowledge of wines, his almost painter's eye for inspired table settings, and hundreds of helpful tips on cooking and serving that will make any party a memorable one. Robert Carrier says, "Good cooking is fun and is ridiculously easy if you like doing it." Follow the magically simple steps in Entertaining and find out just how true this is! Robert Carrier is at home both in the United States, where he is Food and Drink Editor of House Beautiful, and in England, where he is the owner of one of London's finest restaurants, "Carrier's." Famous throughout the world as one of the leading authorities on elegant living and gracious dining, he has contributed to magazines on two continents and is considered one of the twentieth century's leading hosts.
