  The Complete Book of Soups and Stews
Bernard Clayton, Jr.

"A generous, soul-warming collection of recipes from all over the world. This book is a winner" - Richard Sax in Cuisine

"To my mind, Bernard Clayton is a genius in the kitchen. His book of soups and stews is a splendid and inspired addition to any serious home cook's library" - Craig Claiborne

Condition and Description: Very light cover wear, inside is in excellent condtion. This book appears to have never been used.

"Bernard Clayton, Jr.'s, first book, The Complete Book of Breads, won the coveted Tastemaker cookbook award and was praised by Craig Claiborne as perhaps the best book on the subject in the English language. Of Clayton's The Complete Book of Pastry, which also received a Tastemaker award, Claiborne said: "One of the most important cookbooks of this year if not this decade." Now this highly respected author turns his attention to soups and stews.

From his travels around the world, Clayton has put together an eclectic collection of 250 soup recipes and 50 stew recipes, adding to the clear instructions personal anecdotes and historical background throughout. He covers a wide range of soups, from Asparagus-and-Crab to Peach_Buttermilk. American classics such as New England Chowder, Burgoo and US Senate Bean Soup share the spotlight with such international gems as Japanese Shabu-Shabu, Nigerian Peanut Soup, and Scottish Cock-a-Leekie Soup. After a thorough discussion of the many kind of stocks, from Brown Stock to Vegetable Stock, Mr. Clayton includes, for those of us who are lazy, the pros and cons of homemade versus storebought stock, along with tricks and tips to improve the latter. With recipes that are well written and easy to follow, Clayton shows that soup-making is neither time consuming not difficult, and in any case, is well worth the effort.
