Food & Wine Annual Cookbook 2007: An Entire Year of Recipes (Food & Wine Annual Cookbook)

Almost one million subscribers heartily agree: there’s always something delicious going on in Food & Wine. And it’s all here in the annual cookbook, which includes every recipe published in the magazine during 2006—more than 500 dishes accompanied by scrumptious-looking photographs. The contributors remain absolutely stellar—cuisine’s finest—including such cookbook authors, chefs and food luminaries as Jacques Pepin, Jean-Georges Vongerichten, Paula Wolfert, and Eric Ripert. Mouthwatering recipes like Smokey Spiced T-Bone Steaks with Chilean Salsa (from Stephen Raichlen, author of Barbeque Bible), Spring Pea Falafel with Marinated Radishes and Minted Yogurt (from personal chef Nicki Reiss), and Fluffy, Buttery Cinnamon Rolls (Deborah Racicot of New York’s Gotham Bar & Grill) were tested on home appliances, making them easy to re-create. In addition, the volume includes 50 brand-new test-kitchen tips, as well as an extensive glossary of accessible wines. Here’s real food that real people who want to eat well can actually prepare; dishes that reflect the many ways we cook today.


Customer Review: Nice cookbook but not for every day
This cookbook is probably geared toward a more developed cook that I am but the few recipes I have dared to try are good. I especially appreciate the wine pairing information at the back of the book. This would be a good gift for a wine enthusiast/cook.

Customer Review: Replace a year of magazines with one cookbook
I recommend this cookbook to 2006 Food & Wine magazine subscribers to reference favorite recipes in one easy volume. We consistently enjoy the variety and quality of Food & Wine recipes. They are clearly written, state ‘Active’ and ‘Total’ time required, number of servings, and often offer make-ahead and wine suggestions. Most importantly, the recipes taste good and we often remark, “I’d serve this to guests.”

One improvement I’d like to see in future annual cookbooks is the addition of monthly table of contents, so I could easily put together a meal from October’s magazine. Don’t expect pictures for all the recipes like the magazine, but there is good picture representation throughout.

Curious Wine: A Novel

“The ultimate lesbian love novel.”-The Lesbian News

“A masterpiece of lesbian love.”-The Sacramento Star

The intimacy of a cabin at Lake Tahoe provides the combustible setting that brings Diana Holland and Lane Christianson together in this passionate novel of first discovery. Candid in its eroticism, intensely romantic, and remarkably beautiful, Curious Wine is a love story that will remain in your memory.

Katherine Forrest is the author of 12 books, including the groundbreaking science-fiction novel Daughters of a Coral Dawn and the enduringly popular Kate Delafield Mysteries. She lives in San Francisco.



Customer Review: A Classic
I read this book only recently and although it is a bit dated because of being published in 1983, it is also what I would consider a classic. I think it set the stage for lesbian fiction to also be literary fiction. It is a subtle yet powerful story of what happens when two women find themselves attracted to one another.

I only wish I had found this book in 1983 when I was married and raising small children and found myself in love with my best female friend. I think I spent a decade hating myself for it. This book would have helped me accept and understand what was happening to me.

I don’t know Katherine Forrest’s motivation for writing this story, but I am certainly grateful that she had the courage to write it down and publish it, so that women, even 25 years later can find it again or read it for the first time.

Customer Review: One of the best in lesbian fiction
I gave a copy of this book to all of my straight friends so they could read what romanace and love between two women is really like–and they loved the book too! The characters are so well developed and the love is very true to life. It felt good to read a book that echoed how I really feel. After I read this book, I dove into An Emergence of Green, which was also very good.
