What???
Recipes I have been borrowing "forever" in The Silver Palate Cookbook...time to have my own!
A Classic
This has been one of our favorite cookbooks since it first came out.

They provide their standard well done and tested recipes with helpful ... Read More
A standard for recipes and menus for entertaining.
`The Silver Palate Cookbook, 25th Anniversary Edition' by former caterers and current cookbook authors, Julee Rosso and Sheila Lukins is a cookbook classic, of just slightly less stature that `The Joy of Cooking' and Julia Child's `Mastering the Art of French Cooking', and comparable to or superior to the `Better Homes and Gardens Cookbook' and to various Martha Stewart publications. In fact, it is fitting that the 25th anniversaries of both The Silver Palate Cookbook and Martha Stewart's empire founding `Entertaining' book both fall at about the same time, as the two books are wonderful compliments to one another. Contrary to what one may think if you read the many blurbs on the cover from such luminaries as Daniel Boulud, Eric Ripert, Thomas Keller, Ina Garten, ... Read More
