ReviewsThis follow-up to The Bon Appétit Cookbook presents hundreds of quick and simple recipes from the magazine's popular "Fast Easy Fresh" feature. An introductory "Shopping Guide" covers buying and storing produce, meat, and fish, and dozens of sidebars and boxes provide more information on ingredients and techniques. The recipes, inspired by a wide range of cuisines, include make-ahead guidelines whenever possible, and headnotes offer serving suggestions and variations. Sure to appeal to any busy cook as well as the magazine's numerous fans, this is highly recommended. ( School Library Journal , September 15, 2008) Culled from Bon Appetit magazine's "Fast, Fresh, Easy" column, this recipe compendium is one of the largest available for those who love to cook and eat well but lack time on weeknights to make dishes that require hours to prepare. Although Fairchild forgoes estimates of how long each dish may take to make, and a number of entries may not qualify as "fast" for some cooks, especially beginners, the recipes are generally simple, if not foolproof, and cover a vast territory of cuisines. Ingredient lists are short, seldom running over 10 items and rely on the use of the freshest, finest foods available; a helpful shopping guide at the beginning is a welcome aid to those not yet versed in the ingredients' seasonality or optimal appearance. Similarly, a wealth of boxed hints and tips offer an extra level of help to get people cooking confidently. Even if the "fast" and "easy" labels don't always apply, anyone looking for a reliable source of relatively uncomplicated, tasty dishes will be thrilled to find this. (Oct.)
