Summary:

In 1995 Martha Stewart made cookbook history with her best-selling compendium, The Martha Stewart Cookbook. Now Martha and the cooks of the Martha Stewart Living kitchens return with a compilation of 1,200 recipes from the first decade of the magazine -- the best of the decade's best. A treasure of culinary inspiration and information, The Martha Stewart Living Cookbook brings the pleasures of cooking and entertaining within the reach of every cook, from novice to professional caterer.

Taking up where The Martha Stewart Cookbook left off, The Martha Stewart Living Cookbook is an essential addition to any cook's library. Some recipes invite cooks to stretch their culinary knowledge while others provide exciting but simple answers to the eternal question -- What to Have for Dinner, a beloved feature of the magazine. A virtual cooking school in a book, The Martha Stewart Living Cookbook also includes 32 pages of full-color photographs showing a selection of appealing dishes; cooking tips and techniques; pantry and equipment glossaries; and especially basic classes -- cooking 101s -- that establish a time-honored cook's repertory. The recipes cover the cuisines of the world, old favorites, and new classics, all presented with the style and flair that fans have come to expect from Martha Stewart.

The nineteen chapters, organized for maximum practicality and ease of use, cover food for every season and every occasion. The building blocks of kitchen expertise include turkey, fried chicken, and mashed potatoes. Specialty dishes are here too, whether you're having a casual cocktail party, dinner with the in-laws, or a sit-down luncheon for a bride-to-be. There are new twists on exotic dishes and variations on classic themes. Tested and retested by the Martha Stewart Living experts, these recipes add up to an ideal reference that belongs on every kitchen counter in America.
