Summary:

Cooking for one and looking for inspiration? Look no further than acclaimed cookbook author Joyce Goldstein. She knows how to dine well alone at home. With only yourself to impress, you're free to indulge in whatever strikes your fancy. And it's a great opportunity to sample new ingredients and recipes. In Solo Suppers, each dish has been designed to serve one in style. Spicy Tortilla and Lime Soup makes a hearty main dish, while chicken flavored with crispy pancetta and sun-dried tomatoes cooks up fast when time is short. Substantial salads of brightly colored beets and baby spinach are dressed with minty vinaigrette. Seafood Curry, fragrant with coconut milk, pairs nicely with flufly jasmine rice. Essential tios and techniques give valuable advice on shopping for one, stocking the pantry, planning meals, and creating tomorrow's dinner using today's leftovers. Recipes often include variations that take advantage of seasonal ingredients, while an array of sauces can turn a salmon fillet or lamb steak into a gourmet dish. For those evenings when the good company is your own, pamper yourself with a delicious, well cooked meal and relish the Solo Supper experience.
